The last landscape of the year. This was fun to do and taken from a photo reference I made this summer in South Carolina. I used a a technique called pointillism to render this. It was mostly green, but with a few other colors thrown in. The challenge was pushing the green back from the somewhat acidic color it can be in acrylic. This photo is slightly more golden than the original ... getting the colors true was the most difficult part in the scan.
