'Mt Pembroke', New Zealand - Oil Painting and Photography
As some of you may know from following my Steemit profile that I often paint pictures of Milford Sound in Fiordland, New Zealand.
This painting was a studio painting of The Lion and Mt Pembroke which is in prominent view from Milford Sound. I am always trying to achieve a 19th century style to my paintings and I wanted to emphasise the tonal ranges in this art work.
The Lion and Mt Pembroke, 24" x 30", oil on canvas.
This is one of the reference photos I used to create this painting.
This is the classic Milford Sound view. I took elements from the foreground of this photo and incorporated it into my painting.
I have more paintings on my website: samuelearp.com
great painting like it
Thanks @dowha :)
Jeez we live in a beautiful country. Keep up the inspirational paintings. Also, how long did this take you to complete?
New Zealand is a beautiful place. All up including the sketches and colour study around three months!
Very good post.
Thanks @zakir43 :)
the art of painting you truly beautiful and amazing for me to see it. Thank you already share your art.
Thanks @jejangkit :)
Great work on this particular piece. Felt like I'm there lol. Also, looks like a different style compared to the other paintings you've posted up before this, which are more broad-stroked
Thanks @kevinwong, my outdoor plein air paintings I paint using broad brush strokes however my studio work is detailed.
Beautiful as always. Well done!
Thanks @sjennon :)

This art has layers upon layers... love the strong distinction between the foreground stuff and the hazy background mountains.
Thanks. This painting has many layers, it took weeks to paint.
