Description
20' x 24' Acrylic on canvas
Phew! This painting was by far the hardest I have done so far and truth be told, still well outside my skill level at this stage. It took about 24 hours to do, as I redid the house and some other sections that I wasn't initially pleased with. Once again, thanks to acrylic painting techniques for giving me an idea how to go about painting a piece like this.
I used Impasto to create a texture for the lighthouse and also went and collected sand from my local beach, to mix into impasto to create the rocks in the foreground. That's a first for me and an interesting experience to include something else into a finished piece.
Oh and oceans?... yep they're bloody hard to paint and something I need more practice with hehe.
Hope you like it, enjoy

By far the hardest you have done, it is certainly a fantastic out put that came out of your painting The waves and the sky looks so beautiful, and it just gives me such a cozy vibe looking at it:And a big applause to you, that you have actually drawn each stone on the house/lighthouse wallsΒ Β

Thank you! That's what I'd like to get better at specifically. I'm a fan of Thomas Kinkade, who's art I feel can be described the same way

I'm so amazed at every single texture you have depicted on this one piece!!!
I feel like I'm looking at a landscape photograph with everything in focus. But it actually looks more than that because of those subtle hints of clever brushstrokes and almost fairytale-ish colour use!
That lighthouse is, as the first commenter has mentioned, very standing out, with your skillful depiction of its textural detail and nice value contrast!
Amazing!!

The lighthouse stands out to me, the lighting on that textured surface looks awesome.
