Snow and Tree (Digital Impasto) Day 2

Snow and Tree (Digital Impasto) Day 2, a photo by randubnick on Flickr.

Yesterday I started this little digital painting using Painter 12's "digital oil impasto", which I am trying to learn to use. So I kept going with this image today. I had been having trouble with the digital "paint" starting to smear, so I decided to try small and shorter brush strokes. That seemed to help, but it is taking forever. I plan to work on this again tomorrow. At this point, I think it would have been faster to paint this with actual oil paint on an actual canvas! But I am trying to learn something new.
