This is my latest update on my Artwork-in-Progress ~ Alpine Hamlet (11″ x 14″) acrylic on canvas painting.  Painting is always about layering for me, and I’ve finished my first few rounds of snow and rock on my interpretation of the Alpine mountain ‘Ehrwalder Sonnenspitze’ found in Tyrol, Austria.  The next step is to add a forest of fir trees climbing the lower slopes of the Sonnenspitze, followed by more layering of snow over everything ~ and then I hope it looks like an idyllic Alpine backdrop! 🙂

Once I finish the Sonnenspitze mountain landscape, I’ll turn my attention to the Alpine Hamlet scene in the foreground.  I’ll probably add in a few additional details as the painting develops ~ like a central Christmas tree, wreaths and whatever else comes to mind in the process ~ enjoy! ☼ 🙂
