I thought I would keep working on trees now and then. It’s similar to studying the figure, except they vary more, and have a more random element added to them, but they do have limbs. This is the first step of the underpainting.
Now I’ve added the clumps of leaves. The underpainting helps me work out the shapes, and negitive space.
beautiful! i love this so much
Thank you!
It’s helpful to see the underpainting. Thanks.
The white canvas makes me feel uneasy. 😄 Plus I like to know I can leave it in some spots. With a tree like this I need to work out my composition without muddying it up, otherwise all I need is a wash of some color.
I need to think more about composition. Thanks for explaining.
love trees! 🙂
