Wyland's Art Studio

Mt. Hood

Season 5 Episode 502 | 26m 46s

Oregon's Mount Hood rises sharply in the distance, as a sprawling lake fills the foreground in this iconic painting of the Pacific Northwest. Wyland uses the scene as a study of vanishing points, horizon lines, and linear perspective. Artists use the illusion of space and distance on a flat surface by picturing the canvas surface as an "open window" through which to see the painted world.
