And let's see how each one works. So I'm adding paint on a palette scoop. A good amount off, preyed on your knife. Since heavy body at Rolex, I think I'm easily able to take the paint on my knife. Gently apply pressure and you get this beautiful stroke. Oil paints will also give the stick text chills. I can also go with oil pains. Now we'll try the same using normal act relics. Normal acrylics are flowy, so it's difficult for me to take the paint using my knife. It's running anyways. I managed to take some, but in this class will be working with normal acrylics without any past a medium, and I'll teach you how my technique works well with both, the pains will start with heavy body acrylics. So what I'm doing is I'm turning the backside off my knife and applying paint statically on my knife. Apply it on the canvas and you get this beautiful, better Now we'll try with the normal actual excusing the same technique turned the knife screens that you apply, the pain toe the knife transferred to the canvas. It is that simple. The result is good, of course. It is not as good as heavy body actor legs, but still it has good texture. Now we talk about palette knives. They come in different sizes and shapes. It's important to choose the right palette. Knife based on watcher Gonna paint. I show you a demo of how your results would be using different palette knives. First, we'll start with this triangle shaped pointed knife. We got this beautiful point of texture. This knife would be ideal for painting passed off loveless and release the second knife. I'm using a small and it has a blonde dip. I regard this beautiful round texture and this knife would be ideal for painting flowers. The third knife is similar to the 2nd 1 by the one Lee differences that it is very big. This'll knife is ideal for painting large flowers.

Until then, bye bye. 4. Part 3 Painting the Background: having load the basics we love paint the background regarding the colors for the background . I have chosen shades off greens and yellows. What we are painting today is not realistic. One. So, yes, you can choose your own colors on starting with emerald green for a dark shade. Now I'm going with brilliant yellow green for a mildly don't apply the pain directly on the canvas. On One more thing, we are going to get texture to the background. So, yes, we need a large amount of pain for this. And at last I'm using lemon yellow. Apply a good amount of paint on the canvas. No one can. This looks so beautiful. It's time to mess it all up. I'm using a filbert brush number 18 for this. Whenever you're painting the background, start with one color, finish it and go to the next way. Have started with emerald green, will complete it and will go to the next color without cleaning my brush. I'm starting the next color. When I do this, are mixing the two colors directly on the canvas, and that's what I want. No, I guess you can see we used a lot of paint on the count. This, you might think it's too much, but it's OK. That's what we want. We haven't reached the climax yet. You don't have to blend the colors. Just pray the paint on the canvas, and that's enough way will do the blending work later. Now I'm slowly moving to the lemon and Ocala and because I'm using the same brush, I'm getting this light shade of green. You can see my can. This is no completely blended dark shirt off green on the corners and like green in the middle. It's no completely blended right, But that's OK. We'll do the blending process very soon. I'm insured with a low, somatic moray low to my canvas. At last record, this beautiful marble effect way are done. Now comes the fun thought we're gonna add texture, and for this I'm using a dry stencil brush. Don't you dip your brush in water else and not be able to get the decide texture Gently topped the brush on the canvas again. Start with one color completed and go to the next. Now we completed emerald green gradually moved towards the next color. I'm not cleaning my brush before I'm going to the next color, use the same brush and when you're doing this, you get this radiant, your gradually blending the colors. And that's what way. Since we added a lot of pain on the center part, we got really good texture in the center. But on the ages, I added a little bit small quantity off paint, so the textures moderate, not as good as it is in the center. If you don't have the stencil brush, you can also use aluminium foreign, crush it and use it. It also gives a really good texture not similar to this one, but it gives a different design, which is also good. It's all about creativity can use different things and get different texture. Artist all about being courageous way are almost done with a background is the close of short of the texture regard using this technique. As you can see, the middle portion has really good texture when compared to the ages, so when you're doing the background, use a lot of pain. I regard this beautiful tracking effect see in the next session by 5. Part 4 Painting the Tree Trunk: Hi. Welcome back. Our background is completely dry by now, so we'll start to paint the tree. For my reference. I'm using a wide charcoal pencil to draw the basic outline off the tree. This will help you if you're a beginner, and make sure you don't apply too much pressure on the pencil because the background checks shall be disturbed and we don't want that. The drawing is not visible on the screen, but it's just for your reference and for this will be using two brushes Phil but number eight and round number six. I'm using bone tumble to paint the tree trunk at a little bit off water to the brush that would give you a slope flow. - You can also paint a straight tree trunk, but I chose to faint a circular a one. Any waste snorted realistic painting, so feel free to explore different designs. Since we have this textured background, your tree will also have texture, which, as beauty to your painting way, got this basic tree trunk. No, let's kill down the brush size and draw smaller branches, and for this I'm using a round brush. Number six split the branches into another level. If you find difficult to reach some angles, remember, you can always change the orientation of the canvas. This might be challenging few painted tree for the first time. It just takes some practice. Be bold and take your brush. Now we have the basic tree trunk. Time to have the highlights for the first laid off highlights. Amusing. A mixture off cadre and a loca. You get this noise light brown effect. I'm assuming the light is coming from the right hand side, so I'm giving highlights on the right side of the dream. After adding card dread, go to a loca. - One standard painting is dry. I'm adding them in a loop. Do not lend too much. Just take some paint and apply it on the canvas, giving a marble effect do the same for the whole tree way . Almost done. We got this beautiful tree drunk and our highlights are really good.
