Snow Peaks & Still Waters - Intermediate Level 3
Nothing compares to a mountain lake, where vivid blue skies and snow-covered peaks are perfectly mirrored in still, glassy water. In this 8-part acrylic lesson, you’ll capture that atmosphere on canvas—sketching a balanced outline, layering tones to build depth, softening reflections, and adding crisp details to bring the landscape to life. Perfect for confident beginners and intermediate painters, this lesson is designed to challenge and develop your skills while keeping each step simple and enjoyable. By the end, you’ll have painted a striking mountain landscape and developed a stronger understanding of reflections, composition, and the use of natural colour.
