Pastel Landscape Elements - Trees

Trees are the largest and oldest living things on earth. Because trees are so familiar to us it is easy to generalize when representing them, creating a stereotype. Discover how to convey the natural qualities of trees. Learn to see their characteristic silhouettes, growth patterns, openings and lacy edges. Look at how light reveals their form and different strokes describe foliage. Explore color selection and use of ‘Green’. Paint individual trees, trees in groups and in the distance.
