This is a painting where I tried to create a dynamic, pot-like landscape to pour water in.
Here is the painting progress, you can see 3 layers; the sky, sea, and surrounding green. All layers have a different texture. I used a sponge on the sky layer, a hard brush for the sea.
A closeup, taken under sunlight. The green part where I was thinking of some textures rather than realism.
I used white and silver for leaves in that green part to create some contrast, thinking of light coming from the opposite side and highlighting the contours of the leaves. Moving a bit up, a branch and its leaves, whites&silvers together. The texture of the green overflows to the sky and I bind the layers in this way.
Another closeup, where you can see three different textures and the way they are blended.
