More work with wet-in-wet, this time accompanied by using frisket to keep the areas of the birch trees white, and to keep a few other bits white, too. First step was to paint the sky across the trees, then the orange bracken and other foliage. From there – just a few details, some negative painting, and so on. I think there could be more contrast on the birch trees, but stopped to keep myself from overworking it.
We have been having rain for the last two or three days. Perfect days to go out and take pictures as everything is so clean, and perfect days to just be outdoors to smell the earth and new growth. Where I live, cloudy skies and rain are like hens teeth of late, so any excuse to be outside is welcome! We even had thunder and lighting, which was hard to believe.
Sort of on a kick trying out different extremes in post-processing.
