"How I created "Bee keeper at Vinica" Oil on canvas

A painting that has been created as part of a solo show for June 26th 2024, this one comes from Vinica area, or more specifically the Mijanci Valley in Eastern Macedonia.
Obviously the format is portrait here, as I wanted to hone in on that area and also give the painting some perspective by including the background hills in this Original Oil Painting.
I like the idea of reality here, the bee keeper a little hard to see at first in this setting, but that's the reality of this place, the hives set amongst trees and scrubs.
This canvas has been created with interesting brush strokes, good colouring and I hope a good style. It's Alla Prima /wet in wet oil technique.
Created in a how to paint or demo style, I hope that you will find this entertaining and educational.
