this is a painting of trees using acrylic paint. One new skill used was generally using acrylic paint and blending it to create the right shade of color. The main art elements are color, value and space. Color is used to create value, as the lighter colors are in the background and darker colors in the foreground. This helps make it look more realistic and 3-dimensional rather than a flat painting. Space is used in addition to create value, since it helps with avoiding making the whole painting look cluttered and everything is placed relative to where it should be in the setting. The whole painting expresses the mood of a majestic and unreal place.
