Original Creation

Morning snow on Pleasant Hill

flippergirlpaints 10 May 2025

A new painting technique inspired by Canadian artist Tim Packer. You can easily do an online search for him and his process. Starts with a red (acrylic) canvas and a (black) gesso underpainting of the major trees + branches. The sky is accomplished by painting in the negative spaces.
I enjoyed the process somewhat but I do not think I will continue with it at this time. I do think the effect of the sunlight worked very well.

Thank you Pietro and Sandy!

Very nice work. Cool scene πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ

I like the effects overall. The sky is unique and quirky and unexpected. I saw the yellow in the back as distant trees.

thanks Dirk!
thanks Rebecca. Yes the yellow in the distance are trees so I am glad that translated to the viewer!

What a beautiful and striking painting! The colors and contrasts are so remarkable, and your twig/branch effects are amazing.

I love the color choices! Stunning!
