Watercolor by Marty Martin
In this watercolor tutorial I demonstrate how to paint some of the most common trees you will want to add to your paintings to make them stand out. I’ll also show you my goto colours to make this process easier.
Some of the techniques covered are:
Wet into wet Watercolour
Mixing and bleeding
Dry brush work for detailing
How to focus the viewer attention by using sharp areas of focus in contrast to soft area.
How to create a sense of light and shadow
