Hello...Welcome to my art work. I hope you enjoy your stay!! :) **** This is a 9 X 12 acrylic on canvas painting. It has won 2 ribbons in art shows, the last being a 2nd place. **** I first used a modeling paste on a blank canvas to build up and make my mountain/hills texture and give it a 3D look. This took several thin layers. I used a pallet knife to make grooves in the rocks and mountain and then I painted the cougar sitting on top of the hill and the rest of the rocks and hills, etc. **** Thank you for your visit today...All comments and/or suggestions are greatly appreciated!! :) **** God Bless each and everyone!!
