I did this painting in 1993. It is acrylic on canvas (24x36)
In the top of this series of photos you will see the cork-board on the wall (nice color wall paper!) to the left of the painting. On it is a photo I took of the location for a reference.
I start by prepping the canvas and then painting the gradient color for the sky.
I then choose the most distant background image and start working forward.
I add and add until I get to the foreground. In many cases I\'ll paint foreground elements over the background. This way I can let the elements flow more naturally.
Since this is free-hand painting and I didn\'t grid the photo or the canvas, it is not a perfect re-creation.
Eventually, some two-three days later (spending between 4-6 hours a day) it is finished.
I am going to do this with a new composition soon. Except I am going to time-lapse film the entire process.

I really appreciate that. It's an old painting. I want to do a new painting and actually film it with time-lapse you can watch the whole process in minutes.

`karemelancholia is one of the most genuine deviants you could ever met. Always active and a true deviantART cheerleader and supporter in every aspect. You can always count on her to lend a hand or get involved, and you usually will find her doing large amounts of both at any given moment. She's consistently reports on contests around dA, showcases the efforts of her fellow artists and shows her charitable side through various activities. Besides all of this, she's a truly talented artist which is why she's an obvious choice for deviousness this month. Read More
