| After Arkhipov - The Ice Has Passed Photoshop Study |
This is a Photoshop study I completed of a Arkhipovs Ice passed.

The reference was downloaded from the site 200 Russian Painters.
I wanted to do a
study to improve my brushwork and have a painterly look. I used just 2
brushes in this. I had originally planned to do it all with one. All
the figures were completed with one and when it came to the landscape I
reverted to a hard round brush for some areas. It took me about 8 hours over 3 sessions.
I
chose this painting as it has great light. I don't get to see very much
of this kind of light where I live and especially this time of year.
I really enjoyed doing this and I will definitely return to do some more.
