Morteratsch Glacier

Description

I've been a huge fan of the Hudson River School painters from the 19th century for a while now. The Detroit Institute of Arts near where I live has a number of Frederic Edwin Church paintings and they're simply incredible.

That said, I wanted to do a study of an Albert Bierstadt painting, another Hudson River School landscape painter. The painting is of the Morteratsch Glacier, you can see the original here. Be sure to check out his other work too, he's insane.

I did the study from scratch with no color picking or drawing, just shapes and color with a few different brushes. Next time I decide to do one, I might Livestream it

Hope you like it!
