#77. Discovering the Hidden Detail as the Sun Sets. The Big Book of Painting Nature in Oil. Oil. October 25, 2023.

This was a fun one.

For comparison, here is the reference photo and lesson. I deviated quite a bit, and I think that came out for the better.

One up: really happy with how this came out. I used Macpherson’s method on the trees, where you cut out the negative space instead of painting over with the positive. It’s harder and more time consuming, but I love the look. Also like the receding mountain range in this one, I’ve had trouble with that in the past.

One improve: the sky should be painted more loosely to match the rest of the painting, instead I was up close with a small brush.

Colors: happy how the colors came out. Titanium white, cadmium yellow light, alizarin crimson, cerulean blue, pthalo green.

Painting the colour green 

The colour green is one of the most complex and diverse in Nature.

Various shades and angles of light must be depicted on paper; as well as degrees of ageing and darkening of the very leaves.

Adding yellow, red, blue, black or white: there are just some exercises a painter must undertake; in order to master the Art of Painting the Colour Green.

Here is a round-up of all eight of the free digital brush packs that I’ve released so far for Photoshop CC, Clip Studio Paint, and Procreate!

You can download them on this page (click) Type in “0″ for a free download or tip any amount you so desire!

All my brush packs are totally free (tips optional but always very appreciated!) and can be used freely in any work, including commercial work that you profit off of, with no license or credit required. My goal with these brush packs is to make digital painting feel more achievable and accessible - especially painting environments, something I now LOVE but that used to intimidate me, & felt much more approachable with the right tools! Many of the packs also come with tutorial video content. I hope you enjoy!

#88. Making a Dark Foreground Spring to Life. The Big Book of Painting Nature in Oil. Oil. March 12, 2024.

This photo shows the colors more saturated than in real life. Wasn’t able to get a good shot.

One up: overall happy with the way it came out. I’m getting better with the trees over sky, but the going is still slow.

One improve: the trees came out better than the sky on this one, shows you where my focus is. Photo doesn’t show it but it’s dulled down by the tree line, I needed to push that further.

Colors: titanium white, cadmium yellow light and red medium, alizarin crimson, cobalt blue, phthalo green.

Cuban painted snail, Polymita picta, Cepolide

Found only in eastern Cuba, this arboreal species shows remarkable diversity in shell color between individuals. Unfortunately due to poaching to make jewelry and collectibles from their shells, they are now endangered.
