Let's Draw A Tree
I am going to teach one art concept per month,
and this month it's a tree.
Today's post is about drawing trees.
Today I'll be using a tree in my yard as my model.
It's a large old tree and currently is surrounded by snow.
Reference tree in my yard
You'll notice that the light is coming from the right side,
so notice the highlights on the
right side of the trunk and branches.
I tried like the devil to put all these short videos into one video and after spending about 5 hours on the project, I surrender and you'll just have to click through them to see the whole process.

Well that was crazy, but I hope you picked up a tip or two about drawing.
Next week I'll be painting this same tree,
so that should go better.
Maybe!

Another gem for beginning artists. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks Julie. I struggled a lot when I first started painting and I would like to be a great resource for beginning painters.
