EXTREMELY popular. EXTRA Lecture added in response to a question from a student.
REVIEW: 'I enjoyed this course very much. The instructions were very clear. I appreciate the "mistakes" and how to correct them. I feel more confident in painting trees. Thanks' Lynn Eden
Painting trees in a watercolor landscape can be a challenge. Getting the right shape and colours can give you a watercolor painting headache.
Not anymore. My simple and clear video demonstrations will have you watercolor painting a variety of believable trees with confidence.
I have created a portfolio for you to use as a basic guide to tree painting. I have chosen common trees, both deciduous and evergreen and some exotic varieties too. Even if you don'r have exactly the same trees in your part if the world, my selection can be easily adapted to suit what you do have.
Following my videos will soon have you watercolor painting trees at different times of the year, singly or in groups.
I have deliberately kept the color palette simple for your convenience, but of course that palette may vary depending on what trees you have around you.
AND remember if you can get the shape and the color right, then you should end up with a believable tree, so relax and just enjoy the process of the doing.
ALSO painting these, or any other little samples, is so beneficial for your painting skills as they are not intimidating.
Why choose one of my courses?
Because, as a self taught artist I understand how a lot of people feel about their creative work, sometimes anxious, sometimes overwhelmed and often that it's not 'good enough'. I will hold your hand as you overcome these fears as I offer a friendly, relaxed and sensitive teaching style.
I also have years of experience of teaching people of all levels both in person and via the internet.
Do one of my courses and you will feel as if I am in the room with you every step of the way.
Enjoy your painting, love Nicola
