Watercolor on Raw Wood

This piece is for Art Blocks for Ghana.

Below are photos of the finial version with little crystals added.

Below is the work-in-progress photos of this piece. The painting is painted with watercolor. I use acrylic, and silver Designer Gouache to create the bumpy thick snow texture.
