Landscape Painting

I wanted to learn to paint and decided to focus on landscape painting although most of my time spent drawing was focused on portraits. I painted one small landscape study a day. Most of the paintings are studies from Tiffanie Mang’s Tiny Big Worlds book.
Found it to be a good way to learn to mix color and get comfortable with painting in general.

#30 this is the last one. Done in acrylic from my own reference photo taken on a recent trip to Turkey. This one and #26 are my favorites.

#29 first landscape painted off my own photo reference, can’t say I like it very much but it’s good practice.

#27 another from a photo reference from the book. Looks similar to #26 but I’d don’t like it as much not sure if it’s a composition issue or color issue.

#26 still in acrylic but this time painted from a photo reference instead of a study from one of Tiffanie Mangs paintings. I really like how this one turned out.

#24 I switched to heritage acrylic paint with a similar palette. Hansa yellow, phthalo blue, red violet & titanium white. Acrylic paint seems to be easier to layer for me because it dries quick & doesn’t reactivate with water. Still doing studies from Tiffanie Mang’s book.
