Medium
Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
A fairy tale setting, swans and castles all combine into enchantment. Only the gentle wake of the graceful swans disturbs the mirror surface of the brilliant blue lake. The stone archway pulls you into a romantic getaway of vibrant colors and tranquil beauty.
Painted entirely using toothpicks, for paint-knives in over-layers, gives a depth and vibrancy to the pool that you're tempted to test if wet. Paintings that you'll feel like you're there.
This painting is inspired from my deep love of Salzburg, Austria, which is in itself is a work-of-art from countless past masters. Situated on the banks of the Salzach River, at the northern boundary of the Alps, Salzburg is approximately 150 km east of Munich, 281 km northwest of Ljubljana, Slovenia, and 300 km west of Vienna, and is one of the most beautiful places on earth.
