Apparently it's five years since I last made a #painting , according to the dates on my previous ones.
Easter weekend was wet so I needed something indoors to do.
I've never attempted a #panoramic #landscape before so figuring out how to do the mountain textures was interesting. There's still a bit to go, but I'm happy how things are progressing.
It took years from finding the location on a map to standing on the spot I took the photo this is based on (No Plein Air here when you've got to hike for hours and climb a mountain with everything on your back).
Fewer than ten people a year enjoy this perspective over the Tweed Valley from what I can make out from notes in the hut book near the lake at the head of the valley, and most of them are hunters, not photographers or painters, so looking forward to finishing it and enjoying some #artwork money can't buy. (I'll consider a sale, but this is more unique than a banana on a wall, and I like it myself, so offers should reflect this :-) )
