How to Take a Crazy Photo and Paint a Normal Painting

How do you take a crazy reference photo with strange colors and paint something that looks more natural and true to life? In this video I show you my techniques for painting a winter landscape from an unrealistic photo. I share with you the POWER of neutrals and how those dull ‘mousey’ colors are needed in a painting.
