How To Paint a Winter Tree - Intermediate Level 1

How To Paint a Winter Tree - Intermediate Level 1

This tutorial was designed with the intermediate to beginner artist in mind. It has a very simple colour palette and although the techniques for the fine tree details will take practice, mastering them will set you up for a whole host of successful future landscape paintings. The techniques I use here, I use in almost every landscape I paint.

Good luck and enjoy,
Michael
