Narsaq Original Gouache Painting

This is an original gouache painting inspired by my recent travels in Greenland. Pictured in this painting is the tiny colorful village of Narsaq nestled in the fjords of South Greenland. I was deeply inspired by the flora that has adapted to live in the harsh Arctic climate. I was expecting to meet a world covered completely in ice, but instead was met with lush, mossy green carpets of tundra dotted with jewel covered wildflowers and low growing berry bushes. Species featured in this painting include arctic poppy, arctic willow, dwarf fireweed, and yarrow.
