Sam's Painting Adventures - Ballynahinch Lake, Ireland - Art and Photography

samuel-earp-art (65)in #art • 7 years ago

I am currently on my travels and I'm at present staying in the Connemara area of Ireland. About 20 km away from where I'm staying are some beautiful lakes and mountains. I found this beautiful spot at Ballynahinch Lake with an amazing view which I decided to paint.

Here is the finished painting.

Ballynahinch Lake, 10" x 12", oil on canvas.

The view and the afternoon light was amazing and the perfect conditions for painting outdoors, so I set up my trusty pochade box travel easel and got to work.

The light was disappearing fast so I had to be quick, luckily I had my dark tones painted by this point so I was easily able to work in my lighter tones and not worry about the changing light.

And this was the beautiful view I painted, I took this photo before I set up my easel.

Even the photos of you in the wilderness are very wonderful, with all the textures of the different plants in layers all the way to the tree line. Incredible scenery. :)
