In this video I take a look at how several different artist's "see" and simplify trees, from simplifying shape and value as well as their use of color.

Thank you for the introduction to many different artists' work. And, again, I appreciate your teaching us how to look at the workings of a painting.

Thanks Scott. Glad you enjoyed it. I'm jumping back into UA-cam, so if you're subscribed you should see some new videos soon!

Great presentation. Please do a similar session on pine forests and vertical hardwoods. Large stands of pine trees and closely gathered vertical trunks in a forest may reveal an entirely different approach and techniques

[@philstarke.artist]

Great suggestion!

Phil, thanks for the “master class” on the subject of trees. I am thinking right now wondering if you failed to mention any of the essentials. Really good!

Hi Phil - You were kind enough to tell me that your work and methods are suitable also for acrylics and that many of your members are acrylic painters. I was wondering if you could refer me to a source that could give demos on use of acrylic mediums so that I can obtain the 'juicy' quality of oils. I used to paint with oils and I loved that 'oily' quality - but I paint in my bedroom with limited ventilation so gave that up. Can't seem to make the acrylics comparable. Thank you.

[@philstarke.artist]

Hi, I don't know of any acrylic workshops or demos. But William Hook is a very good acrylic painter

[@brennerfineart]
