1:33 Ha! I have an old goat hair utility brush that is quite stiff from use. I too trimmed away some hairs to make it more coarse to get little specks. I need to make a smaller one for finer details. I do appreciate the tutorials, it's helping me bring my painting to the next level. I recently sold a sign using your technique for doing water and the customer loved it. I chickened out with the light/white sparkles and highlights, once I practice more I won't be afraid of messing it up! hahah
Really nice, I suppose it's a case of always being aware of where the light is coming from while painting, and being patient with the application of the fine detail paint. Anyway a great video, thanks for doing it.
Thanks a lot :-))) And you`re right - patience is one of the major keys when it comes to painting in a realistic way...sometimes I really have to struggle to keep my temper at bay ;-))))))
8:04 haha, when you extended the top of the tree with a bigger brush, it reminded me of a mistake I made and had to cover "ok, I guess this tree is going to be a little taller than planned" hahahah
4:25 lots of colour variations. I never thought to use blue in the shadows. Same as brown. I tended to stick with forest green, evergreen bough, but I'll try adding some blue/green to my shadows. My big thing is I'm blue/green colour blind so mixing colours is a challenge. I have to mix according to the name, not what my eyes see.
This is one of the key parts when it comes to paint realistically...you need soooo many different colours all over the place...learning to see them first in the reference photo is another important skill that a painter has to pick up...but when it "clicks" the paintings make a huge leap forward concerning the quality :-)))
@@brennerfineart Oh for sure! My big issue is my customers will send me a photo to reference, a thumbnail the size of a postage stamp and shot with a potato camera ahahah. It's got the resolution of a cat, shot from 100 M away, through a screen door, at night hahaha. I'm going to try the blue in the shadows. I had an issue with a recent painting where the distant tree line on the other side of the lake, the customer wanted me to add some pine trees and I couldn't get the shadows and highlights right. I'm SO glad I found your channel, it's helping me immensely. You're a great teacher!
@@muskokamike127 Yes...the classic one ;-))) people have no idea how impossible it is to paint something when you get a stamp as reference and you have to paint the whole family of this person that IS on the stamp but in 120 cm x 80 cm...a nightmare...
:-)))) The most important skill for any artist is patience and perseverance - and over time you WILL progress if you really invest the time you need to improve :-)))
You deserve a million followers. Hopefully you get there soon. Awesome work

@@brennerfineart at least now you can load them onto a tablet and zoom in....but you see those 3 pixels right there? that's uncle henry! :-))))
@@muskokamike127 YES :-))) but still impossible to do it properly this way...perhaps one day people will understand it ;-)
You need :
Paints, Canvas, brushes for art
Wait I forgot talent and skill nvm
