How to Paint a Cottage Mountain Stream Landscape, Time Lapse Painting in Acrylic
Watch how to paint a colorful little mountain stream cottage landscape, from start to finish!
This is a time-lapse showing how I painted my colorful 'Mountain Stream Cottages' landscape in acrylic paint.
I really enjoyed creating this colorful little artwork, It has a cheerful folk art style.! The imagery in this painting is from my imagination based on years of observation, so no source material was references.
You'll notice that part way through, the painting seems to turn upside-down... often when I'm painting I'll turn the canvas around so I can see the piece in a new way. Then I turn it right side up to finish off. It seems odd I know, but the process has always works for me lol.
This painting was created using acrylic paint on stretched canvas. I start with an orange base as it makes the colors I put on top brighter, plus and any gaps between strokes will show orange instead of white. This is how I usually start all my acrylic paintings. If you have any questions about my process, materials or artwork be sure to contact me!!
Please enjoy the journey as I create this painting, and I hope you learn something new about making art!!! Cheers, Cathy : )
