Samui Fuyu - stage 3


 Still really hard to get a decent photo of it...

Things have progressed to starting on the foreground snow but stopped here as I don't want to rush it and should have plenty of time tomorrow to finish it, all I have to do is knock back the shrine into the mist a bit and finish off the foreground snow. This painting has in the end served it's original purpose as I contemplate the larger painting and am glad to have discovered that my original idea of painting the snow wouldn't have worked....

Incidentally I have also discovered that adding white to my basic underpainting mix of Dioxazine Purple and Burnt Sienna gives these nice desaturated violets....

New colours used: Yellow Lake Deep and Lead Tin Yellow Lemon
