Water reflections in acrylic

This video is for  intermediate to advanced painters. 

It is an acrylic painting demo of trees reflecting into water.  The subject is a complex composition that synthesizes information from two different images. If you are interested you can also see the oil painting counterpart to this video as well: Water reflections in oil

Often a subject inspired by a photo will be an interesting composition but I may want to express it using different colours.  The challenge of this oil painting is to use two source images, one for the composition and another for the colour inspiration. 

This video looks at how to do this. It begins with an under-painting that takes information from the first visual resource. The second stage of the painting is determining how to use colours from a second photo and apply it to the initial composition.

Here are two images from the process: the under-painting and the final painting.
