Thanks so much I am really happy you like it!
For painting any kind of evergreen type tree or bush the thing to remember is that you don't want it to look perfect! Obviously it is bigger on the bottom and smaller on the top but in real life there are always branches that poke out unevenly. As far as techique goes, on this particular piece I used a small sponge of some sort, probably a regular kitchen sponge that i cut into small pieces with a pointy tip. Make sure your paint isn't too watery for this! DFon't paint the trunk of the tree where the the branches and the evergreen is until after so it looks like you have a full tree in front of the trunk of the tree. I hope some of this makes some sense to you

Thanks so much! I'll bear that in mind. I'm improving lots at other kinds of trees, but hadn't a clue how to do evergreens
keep the good work coming!

this piece reminds me exactly the atmosphere now in my place.
its still hot here, and everything is green. the flowers are still bloming. but the weather start to get colder , better to say fresh. and last night was raining for 2-3 minutes 
its a beautiful piece!!!

i think if i would paint this view, it would be similar style to this one. i paint flowers like that, impresionism style. and i love this piece!
THATS OK, i understand you got a lots of messages since the time you where gone. you are welcome judylee!

I love the impressionistic style, just don't do it often enough. So happy you like this one Hanna

i love the impressionistic style too.
but only small flowers i can paint like that. and thats because i was looking at imperssionism pictures to learn how to paint the flowers.

Your comment so appreciated

Aw it looks deceptively simple....but when you look close you realize just how difficult it must have been to paint the light right and whatnot...nice!

Pretty!!!!!! Wish I could be there right about now...weather looks cool. Its too hot here...LOL

wonder atmosphere...I didnt see it as a watercolor at first, and that makes it pleasantly unique. ( not that I dont like watercolor...just enjoy your technique here!)

Just curious as to what medium you first thought this was? I am glad you Like
π: 0 β©: 1
I really wasnt sure...sorry...it sort of reminded me of acrylics or oils...then also some aspects a bit like a drawing medium like pastels. You are beautifully talented...thank for making and sharing your work.
π: 0 β©: 1
No problem at all, no need to be sorry. There are many times when I am not sure of the medium. Thats why I wish everyone would say so in the artists comments

I really like this one. Its a bit different from your others. Loks like you were starting to developing your style here. I would love to watch you work sometime.

It went pertty good. I only sold 2 small prints and one large but I made a ton of contacts. people who are redoing there houses and are looking for something for the walls, business owners looking for somthing to hang in the offices to interior designers who do work for hotels & rsturaunts. Gave out a bunch of cards and got tons of email addys and mailing addresses. I am happy with the way it went because thats what I really want to do is get into selling or leasing to various business. Anyway, I am stoked.

With watercolors like this one, do you paint it en plein air? I really like the way you paint trees and foliage and grass, for I often have a hard time dealing with them 
π: 0 β©: 1
No i don't paint in plein aire, actually I really hate painting plein aire(is that ok for an artist to say, or will i be banned from artisthood forever
