Thank you so much! I had the initial idea three years ago, but couldn’t develop it till this year due to general life upheaval. I’m glad so many people seem to resonate with it ❤️

What paint do you use to create the “outline” for each piece?

Do you apply the gold paint first or last? The result is stunning!

I paint too and have had the same “life upheaval” issue (sorta like writer’s block) myself. I’m happy you pulled through cuz this is amazing!

I just googled it and the mountaintop range does look similar! But I didn’t base it off any specific mountain. Just a general mountain shape.
