How to Paint a Night Moon Landscape with Acrylic | Time Lapse Painting
Watch how to create a folk art country moon landscape painting from start to finish!
Showing you the process using acrylic paint on canvas. This is a time-lapse painting of one of my small original landscapes. 'Night Purple Moon'... this painting's simple design is a nod to folk art, The size is small, but this little landscape packs a lot of color into its bold deep purple star-studded evening sky and contrasting full moon.
This artwork was created using acrylic paint on an 8x10 stretched canvas. Tip... when creating a painting with a strong directional light source be sure to watch the direction of the shadows. I love shadows, they always add extra contrast and depth to make the painting more interesting. I start with an orange base to make the colors I put on top brighter, plus and any gaps between strokes will show orange instead of white. This is how I start all my acrylic paintings.
If you have any questions about my process or materials be sure to contact me!
Enjoy the journey as I create this sweet little painting, and I hope you learn something new about making art and how to paint a landscape!!!
