Walk in the Woods is an acrylic painting that I did from a photo that I took while doing a hike in Hamilton while visiting my parents. I used a black canvas as a starting point since I wanted to see how this would affect the colours of the paints. Also I was watching a video on YouTube which talks about being able to achieve more depth by leaving some of the canvas exposed. Finally I was hoping that by starting with a dark canvas I could really accent the light in this painting. I am not sure that I achieved all my goals but I am pleased with the outcome of the painting and did learn a few things in the process such as getting the rocks to look textured. Every painting is an adventure and a learning experience.
