Embedded Files
After two bottles of wine and one night of planning a trip of a lifetime, two Best Friends ventured onto/into Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon to capture the beauty of icebergs and friendship,
Quick little sketching to check proportions and the horizon
Detailing dark paint mixed with Linseed Oil
Adding highlights and faux fur detail
Finishing shades of the BFF & E with a start of the weathered sky
Working in an impasto sky and ocean wave caps
Start of the ice formations with touch of waves on right
Start of the platform to which they stand.
Detailing Glaciers while adding lower left water colours
Finishing center Glaciers working right to left.
Adding Ocean waves with contrasting white caps.
Canvas completely covered. Needs to cure for a few days.
Other than painting bottom edge and signature, this is it!
A comparison of the actual photo to the final oil project. Last detail to include the final signature.
Special thanks to Kami & Claudia for providing me with the beautiful scenery of Iceland's Glaciers and your friendship.
Project Complete and thank you for viewing! 🎨
