And the shadow of the day, Will embrace the world in grey, And the sun will set for you - Shadow of the day, by Linkin Park

Finally! After three days, I am finally done with my granddad's birthday gift! Well, this one you see here only took about 5 hours, but I was trying to make something ells. This photo, by Saraeo ->
It's my favorite photograph of hers and I wanted it to be something special. But just as I thought I almost was finished, I screwed up and realized, "this just wont do..." So I painted over it and made this one instead.
I looked at this one, also from her, for help with the trees ->

I know it's no Tuesday, but at least I was able to make a painting that I was happy with and could give away with pride ^^ I didn't wanna give my granddad something that I felt I had failed, also since I don't intend to make two paintings with the same motive, so...

Anyways, Thank you so much =saraeo for letting me use your beautiful photos as refs! When I get back into painting and learn more about blending, then I will try again with Tuesday and make it really awesome! (Though I think I'll make that one not as big as this one ^^; )


Made on a 63x82 cm canvas(25x32 inches) and acrylic

It looks great! And it's good that you ended with something you are proud of, even if it is different than the original goal. :) It's beautiful!

Thank you my friend :hug:
And I'm glad my granddad were happy for it too. He and his brother (whom like us came to visit) were quick to get it in its frame (There was a frame for it, but unfortunately there were no pre-drilled holes or screws for it. But my granddad have always been very handy, so mom knew he would have no problem with it ^^) and then hang it on his wall.
