    I've just moved to the forest from the desert, and I will decorate my room with some miniatures of these. I think they are lovely. Thank you

    I really love the misty trees! And the minimalist one with the birds. That green paper really sets off these paintings. Love Love Love!

    I love all of these, but funnily enough my favourite was the one you thought too busy!! Would love to see these ideas in larger format tutorials! 🥰

    These miniature arboreal masterpieces are a delight! 🌲
    I'm acutely aware that painting, talking us through what you're doing live, _and_ making sure your hands are at the right angle for us to see is quite the juggling act for you to accomplish. 😵‍💫🤯
    Thanks so much for sharing your skills and tips with us so generously, Lou. 🤍

    My favorite is the “too busy one”. New subscriber. I paint with acrylics. I’ve always thought watercolor would be too hard. Looking forward to overcoming my fear of watercolor painting.

    • @LouDavis
      @LouDavis  Рік тому +1

      Thanks! I hope you enjoy watercolours, I transitioned from acrylics too - they're very different and that takes a bit of getting used to!

    I had never painted in watercolors before, but about Thanksgiving time I decided to try to paint my own Christmas cards, following UA-cam instructions. Painted 45 cards, using about 5-6 different designs. This was one I painted a few times and it turned out very well. Thanks for sharing

    Fave: Snowy grove. The way you brought light into the composition makes it a standout. Never mind the one 'blurry' tree, no one will really notice. Runner Up: Leafless trees on hill. So simple - just speaks of winter. Fantastic color! Inspiring - makes me want to give it a go! Merry Christmas!

  • @annelouise4639
    @annelouise4639 Рік тому +1

    These turned out beautifully! I like all of them very much but my favourite is the sparse winter tree one. Love the touches of gold in the larger trees as well. 😊🌲🌲🌲

    These turned out great! I wonder if you had used a gold metallic watercolor rather than the acrylic ink you would have been happier with the outcome?

    Why did you do green for the sky, I like the paintings but wondering about your colour choice. X

    • @LouDavis
      @LouDavis  Рік тому +1

      They’re monochrome paintings, so green for everything, and I like that particular green, nothing more to it!
