WH Concept Portico Painting

This was a painting that was done for a White House Ornament Packaging Option. It was not used and resides on my wall now. This was one of the first paintings that I did of the White House and also one of the first times I tried to paint entirely in Oils. Because of this I was sat out in the warehouse with the doors open. It was near the end of winter and wow was it cold and rainy those days I was working on it. I ended up pulling it into the computer to do some revisions as I ran out of surface to paint on and the picture needed to show more width wise. Additionally I learned a technique to add snow falling in photoshop. Great learning experience overall!
