Comments

really nice sky in this one, and I really like the colors too. If you'd like tips, I can offer one comment about foliage: Your shape and form is good, but might be pushing too hard. If you're going for a lacey like effect, it takes quite a lot of paint in the brush. So much that it's just about hanging off the bristles (hanging like 1/16 of an inch). People say you should see a bush like shape on the palette if you've loaded the brush correctly, but I haven't seen anyone mention that if you look at the brush you'll also see a similar shape created by peaks of paint on the brush (standing up on the end of the bristles). Once you get to that point you're literally just going to touch the peaks of paint to the canvas, the brush bristles might not even touch at first. Thanks for reading, happy painting!

Thank you
