Loose Impressionist Painting: Tree in the sun
https://www.skillshare.com/classes/Loose-Impressionist-Painting-Tree-in-the-sun/572415505
This is a paint along course where I also cover tips and tricks on how to create a loose and colorful painting in a modern impressionist style. I chose to paint a simple tree surrounded by just a few elements: the sky, a plain grass field and some elements in the background. This way we can focus on detailing and texturing the painting without working towards tying together too many objects, each with their own values, hue and color saturation.
Painting this tree gives us a lot of freedom to experiment with different textures by using brushes and a palette knife interchangeably. Trees and other organic elements like bushes help you develop your own style by exploring how the appearance of branches and leaves is given using the palette knife or different size brushes. We are looking to give our art a painterly feel with clear, bold brushstrokes. The whole course is in real time so you will be able to see step-by-step how the painting is created, not skipping a single streak of color.
