Original artwork description:

This painting is from the project «One day in the mountains: on the steps of Claude Monet».

"Daylight. In that time of a day we can see bright light and deep shadows on the rocks. Clean sky gives strong reflections to the shadows, and it works very well with warm light near cool snow. I started with this one in 11-12 AM, but noticed, that colors on the mountains are very close to the morning painting, and I decide to rework it in 2-4 PM. This thing was done in three sessions."

Kirill Kornilov done the project «One day in the mountains: on the steps of Claude Monet» in Sochi, Russia in art residence. He painted one view in different time of a day and weather conditions, like impressionists in 19th century, to catch right light and color. He used big canvases, 70x100cm (27x39in) and done 6 paintings with sunrise, morning, day, evening and sunset.

The painting was done with high quality oil paints on canvas stretched on a subframe. Unframed, borders are unpainted. Ready to hang.
