Oil painting of Mount Everest
Oil painting is the practice of using pigments and a drying oil medium as a binder. For several centuries, it has been the most popular method for artistic painting on canvas or wood panels, spreading from Europe to the rest of the world. Oil offers “greater flexibility, richer, and denser color, the use of layers, and a wider range from light to dark” when painting pictures. However, the process takes longer because one layer of paint must dry before another is applied.
This is an original painting of Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world, as seen by our expert artist with their yaks in the trekking trails.
Mount Everest is a peak in the Himalaya mountain range. It is located between Nepal and Tibet, an autonomous region of China. At 8,849 meters (29,032 feet), it is considered the tallest point on Earth. In the nineteenth century, the mountain was named after George Everest, a former Surveyor General of India. The Tibetan name is Chomolungma, which means “Mother Goddess of the World.” The Nepali name is Sagarmatha.
