Prince Of Wales, Waterton Lakes National Park Painting

This is a mixed media piece of the Prince of Wales Hotel in Waterton Lakes National Park with its accompanying view. It is both wood burned and acrylic painted on a piece of pine would that range in size from 7×11 inches to 24×36 inches. The photos above are of the 7×11 inch version. This is perhaps the most iconic view in all of Waterton Lakes National Park. However, to be up by the hotel and have it not be windy is about the same odds as winning the lottery! The art is made to order so the processing time is 2-8 weeks from the date of the order. This mainly depends on the size of the painting ordered. Small paintings usually take 2-3 weeks and larger paintings usually take 4-8 weeks. My process to make these pieces is as follows: Draw on the lines with pencil Burn in the lines with a wood-burning tool Paint in the spaces with acrylic paint Burn the edges of the wood with a torch Seal the piece with a clear gloss covering Or you can watch the time-lapse video here of a similar piece where I show the whole process in about 7 minutes!
