  • VIDEO DESCRIPTION This painting tutorial will take you through easy to follow, step-by-step instructions on how to paint this adorable, sweet spring country image of “DEER AND BUTTERFLY”. You'll learn basic painting tips and techniques that will have you painting a realistic wildlife landscape painting of a spring meadow filled with blooming wild white daisies, a precious fawn and stunning monarch butterfly. The curiosity of the young deer and the bold flying insect will capture the viewers attention with the sunshine frenched field and long woodland grass set deep in the quiet forest. With the large doe eyes and beautiful young Bambi spots, this cute fawn will not only bring you joy to look at, but you will also learn some valuable painting techniques. This painting lesson will teach you how to create realistic looking dimension with properly placed highlights and shadows and how to layer fur to give a textured appearance. It will provide you with a solid learning experience and maybe a tender story will emerge along the way. You’ll learn how to draw a simple outline of the animal face and body that will provide a good base to start from with structure and form. You’ll learn to paint atmospheric dimension in the out of focus sky and distant land with the colors blending and transitioning into one another. You’ll also learn how to blend colors directly on the canvas and how to layer different tones of the same color for realistic visual effects. This captivating creation may have you wanting to paint an entire family of little ones running, jumping or playing in the field of flowers, but I suggest you start with just one…lol! Using only 3 brushes and 7 colors we'll create this innocent and beautiful piece of art that will bring joy to any décor. So, let’s get painting and let's get sipping!

    This is the way I want to learn to paint. You give very explicit instructions for your every stroke. As a newbie, this is very important to me. Thank you, Michelle.

    I love how you break everything into small pieces! Not long ago I would have looked at this one and said that’s too difficult, but I have done 17 paintings with you and they have all turned out pretty good. So that gave me confidence to do this one and I’m very pleased with the finished product. Thank you, Michelle!

    • @michellethepainter.

    I came back to tell you that you saved my painting and my confidence! I was working on a fawn very different from yours, and after many layers and tries, I could not get the colors or values right. Your tutorial allowed me to see where I was "off" and correct it. I wish you could see how absolutely real (and beautiful) it looks! Thank you so much!

    Love this sweet Baby deer! After painting with you for a couple of years now, I am finally ready to tackle painting this one. Even though I have been painting in various mediums for 40 plus years, I have learned so much from you! I am a much better artist because of your teachings and the fact that I stop a video and catch up or go back and review a previous step has allowed me to grow in my art. So THANK YOU! Thank you. Thank you! 💜💖💝

    This is the third or fourth one of your tutorials that I've seen just in the past few days, and let me tell you this:
    The way you break things down, and explain them in such a concise manner, with each individual step by step, is seriously THE BEST way to teach acrylic painting I have EVER seen in video format.
    I mean, I'm an intermediate level painter myself, but watching your videos, I've learned so much in such a short time. Eventually, I'll get around to doing a paint along (probably the dandelion or mushroom paintings you've done, or perhaps even this one)... but even if I didn't choose to replicate one of your works, I've learned so much about acrylic painting in general from your lessons.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR CONTENT.
    Seriously, it's actually more in depth than a Bob Ross video, and I absolutely adore Bob Ross. I guess you're the Bob Ross of acrylics, lol.

    • @michellethepainter.
      @michellethepainter.  3 роки тому

      Thank you! I wouldn't mind being the Bob Ross of acrylic! I'm glad you are having fun and learning, especially as an intermediate artist! Keep on painting!

    I loved this tutorial, as always well presented, and well explained. I have tried to paint this deer, but struggled with the shape of the head.so as Michelle says, I took a break then, reshaped the head,and repainted some of the background. . It's very easy to just give up, but I'm learning if you think you have ruined it, what's the worse you can do by trying to correct it xx
