Hi everyone, and welcome to this class about painting the forest with watercolor! In this third part, we are going to focus on pine trees.

Watercolor is a great medium to paint landscapes because it allows you to create many different atmospheres with just a few colors. You can play with water and texture to capture the feel of a place and let watercolor do its magic.

This is the third part of a series of classes about painting the forest, and each one covers a different topic. I already showed you how to paint birch trees and trees seen from below, so today we are going to paint a different atmosphere.

Picture yourself in the middle of a forest, surrounded by pine trees as far as you can see. In this class, we are going to recreate the beauty of this scene with watercolor and paint together this landscape from start to finish.

You will only need only three colors so feel free to use what you already have on your watercolor palette, the goal is to focus on the atmosphere more than the details.

You will learn how to paint an abstract background with the wet on wet technique, how to paint the trees and how to create depth.
