Trees are my favorite subject! That's how I got started in watercolors and I will alway defer to trees if I've been away from painting for a while. These five examples are so gorgeous that I will definitely try to paint using these techniques. As always, thanks so much Anastasia, you always inspire me!
Trees are such gorgeous subjects to paint! Such a source of inspiration too. Thank you for watching, and have fun with these techniques! Oh, and I will be posting another tree video soon :)
I paint every single day and today I must have been feeling very brave because I decided to paint one of your pictures. I didn't have the exact colors you used but I did some mixing and came pretty close. I am absolutely thrilled with how this painting turned out and it has now become my all time favorite as you have become my all time favorite artist! Thank you so very much for sharing your techniques. It has given me so many ideas to start creating a new style of painting for me and I am anxious for tomorrow to see how I can apply this!
How wonderful it is that you paint every day! And I am so very happy my videos are helping you on your creative journey, and that you are feeling brave and trying new things. Thank you for sharing this, because it means so much to know that my videos are bringing you inspiration ✨ I hope you have a beautiful and creative weekend!
I truly am so thankful that I found your channel the way your videos just make me feel so calm and at peace while learning so much it is a therapeutic experience and these trees are amazing. Thanks you for sharing ❤🙏
Oh I am so glad to know my videos bring you calm!! Painting in watercolour is so therapeutic and peaceful indeed and I am happy I can express it through my videos too 😊 Thank you for watching, and happy painting!
Thank you so much! I know what you mean about too much details - I, too, get stressed if there are too many tiny little things I need to paint… Glad this video helps!
Thank you for watching - I am so glad you find it fun too! For me, that is what it's all about when it comes to watercolour - playing and having fun. And so much gets discovered along the way. Knowing the fundamentals helps too of course - I would recommend picking up a book on the basics of watercolour, I've found them a very valuable tool on my watercolour journey...
Vielen lieben Dank für diesen Film mit den verschiedenen Möglichkeiten wie man Bäume im Aquarell malen kann. Ich kann den Techniken in Ihrem Video sehr gut folgen und sie nachvollziehen. Es ist für mich als Anfängerin eine sehr große Hilfe 🌳🦋
Oh I am so glad your find this video easy to follow 😊 Thank you for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment. Have fun painting those trees!
As I was watching, I as wondering about combining some of those techniques together and it is the last comment you made. This can be a great exercise to get out of those days when you do not know what to paint and brush up on those skills. ThankYou for putting it all in one video
You write comments and colours used and what you have done and going to do are really very very useful not only beginers but professional artist too Please continue like this with every painting Your experiments simplify painting arts and various techniques really like "Light House " Thanks for all these
Thank you so much! I used to dip the sponge into the paint but it would dilute the paint. So I had an idea to use the brush to get it onto the sponge and it works so well as it gives me so much more control. Have fun!
Merci infiniment. J'ai tellement de difficultés à faire les arbres. .... Je vais peut-être pouvoir faire de gros progrès grâce à vous. 😗 c'est beau à regarder 😊 Jacqueline de France
Fabulous video! Good trees are tough to paint but now I have a much better idea of how to create them and I love the way your tree trunks are all twisty and bent and much more interesting than just street trunks
Good evening I am Anil Katkar from Pune India saw your this beautiful vedio and easy ways to paint trees in water colour I am a senior person who made three water colour landscape paintings exhibitions at Balgandharv art gallery at Pune still I feel difficult to paint trees I have asked number of Artists from India and here too but no one didn't reply These techniques don't require to ask anyone Many many thanks for sharing this beautiful vedio with technique God bless you and your family
Hi Anil, thank you for watching, and for leaving such a kind comment. I am glad you have found this video helpful! Enjoy painting all those trees - they are such a beautiful subject to paint in watercolour. Wishing you a beautiful weekend!
@@AnastasiaMily haha, just as your reply came in I was playing with the stippling effect. I have this very stiff hogs hair brush, loved it. Thank you for inspiring us to give trees a go x
Muchas gracias Anastasia por compartir , te estoy siguiendo y me agradan mucho tus creaciones y tu estilo de mostrar tus videos, Bendiciones desde Ec en la mitad del mundo😊
Thank you so much - glad you liked the video! I used 100% cotton 300gsm cold press paper (not sure about the size as it was a failed painting that I cut into smaller pieces to reuse for sketching)
Greetings from here Let me know which paper you are using I am getting too difficult to get paper here Though I am not a professional artist so painting isn't ok in one attempt coz each subject is different and number of ways used to bring on paper what I have seen in Nature and papers are required required in large number Actually you don't have any idea about Indian market but if you know good paper with affordable cost Really your paper is so beautiful and it's pleasure to watch your demo Once again mamy many thanks for reply Good night
Yes it's available here Thanks for your quick reply Really I am so grateful to you Try to search in water colour and upload vedios here I am subscribing your channel Bye now and thank once again
I’m learning with watercolors and I see you using a lot of water. I’m scared 😂 my paper always crumples or gets wavy so not sure what kind of watercolor paper to use I guess.
Lots of water can be scary indeed! I use 100% 300 gsm cotton cold press paper (I like paper by Baohong) and it handles tons of water very well. The paper still buckles but it can be flattened later. What kind of paper do you use?
@@jodivanhooser8440 I am not sure if your paper is 100% cotton (I know Canson make different kinds of paper, both cotton and cellulose/wood pulp). Cotton definitely handles the water better than cellulose. I also find that taping the paper to a board with masking tape helps hold it in place when it starts warping under lots of water. I buy blocks of paper (20 sheets stacked together and gummed on the sides) and let my paintings dry completely before separating them from the block with a knife. This reduces the warping quite a bit. Hope this helps!
😢 Good morning I am watching your various vedios on TV and felt that you are using number of colours with different shades please if you would use minimum colours your painting would be more beautiful I hope you wouldn't get angry on me Here in India only Camille colours are available and their quality is very superior secondly they don't manufacture so many colours too
I feel very grateful that I have access to many, many different paints of amazing quality, and I love discovering all those colours. They are different approaches to using colour, and using limited palette is not the only way to paint. I am actually a big fan of "unlimited" palette. If you choose to continue watching my videos, you will notice that there are some where I used two colours only, and some where I used over ten different colours, and I love the results either way. And I am not sharing my videos here to seek anyone's approval as I do not need it, I am simply sharing my love for watercolour and my favourite techniques 🙂 Have a great day!
Thanks for your reply Yes I agree with you that we are not doing painting for satisfaction of someone Unlike me you can get number of different shades in one colour and if you like to use them it's really great thing Perhaps it's my wrong mentality to use limited colours perhaps it's coz of some artist here or I have a book "Vibrant Water Colour " written by Hazel Soal a UK based Artist There are only limited shades are available in India even I can't get Crimzon Alizarin a cool Red and I am making it by mixing Red and Purple Anyhow I am sorry for writing you if I would be at your place certainly use different shades I am lucky for your vedios and if they would be available 8 yrs before my paintings would be superior than now
One more suggestion please wander in nearby Nature and try to observe There's no great teacher than Nature and instead of imaginary painting you try to paint real ones But don't be slave to scene coz we can't copy Nature and there are number of things in a particular scene leaving all unwanted things try to ask yourself that what makes me or an an inspiration behind to painting and that is a focus of your painting No doubt you are really great artist and I am trying to learn from you too but sometimes someone even a child suggest us we have to listen My grand son was telling me what's wrong or what should be There's a difference between artist's view and other ones view apart from age or artist or non artist
Thank you for watching! We all have our own unique view of the world and the way to express that view creatively. I constantly observe nature and I learn from it always, and I also trust my hand that is holding the brush, and I paint in the way that is coming from deep inside my heart. I am not a realist painter and I dot strive to be one. I think the most wonderful thing that we realise at some point of our artistic journey is that we are completely free to paint the way we want to paint instead of the way we are told we "should" be painting. Only once we realise this, we can create authentic, honest work.
Thanks for your nice reply I will certainly try to draw new painting from old one I am now 70 and have pain in left knee so can't wander in nearby Nature as before I am very grateful your views towards painting Secondly appreciate you for sending replies to every comment It's really great coz others don't care comment Regarding paper asked number of artists but no one advised or replied me

I love them all! Never thought to paint onto a sea sponge with the brush. Thankyou !
Thank you so much! I used to dip the sponge into the paint but it would dilute the paint. So I had an idea to use the brush to get it onto the sponge and it works so well as it gives me so much more control. Have fun!
Wonderful

😢 Good morning
I am watching your various vedios on TV and felt that you are using number of colours with different shades please if you would use minimum colours your painting would be more beautiful
I hope you wouldn't get angry on me Here in India only Camille colours are available and their quality is very superior secondly they don't manufacture so many colours too
I feel very grateful that I have access to many, many different paints of amazing quality, and I love discovering all those colours. They are different approaches to using colour, and using limited palette is not the only way to paint. I am actually a big fan of "unlimited" palette.

Thanks for your reply Yes I agree with you that we are not doing painting for satisfaction of someone Unlike me you can get number of different shades in one colour and if you like to use them it's really great thing
Perhaps it's my wrong mentality to use limited colours perhaps it's coz of some artist here or I have a book "Vibrant Water Colour " written by Hazel Soal a UK based Artist
There are only limited shades are available in India even I can't get Crimzon Alizarin a cool Red and I am making it by mixing Red and Purple
Anyhow I am sorry for writing you if I would be at your place certainly use different shades
I am lucky for your vedios and if they would be available 8 yrs before my paintings would be superior than now
One more suggestion please wander in nearby Nature and try to observe There's no great teacher than Nature and instead of imaginary painting you try to paint real ones
But don't be slave to scene coz we can't copy Nature and there are number of things in a particular scene leaving all unwanted things try to ask yourself that what makes me or an an inspiration behind to painting and that is a focus of your painting
No doubt you are really great artist and I am trying to learn from you too but sometimes someone even a child suggest us we have to listen My grand son was telling me what's wrong or what should be
There's a difference between artist's view and other ones view apart from age or artist or non artist
Thank you for watching! We all have our own unique view of the world and the way to express that view creatively.

I am very grateful your views towards painting
Secondly appreciate you for sending replies to every comment It's really great coz others don't care comment
Regarding paper asked number of artists but no one advised or replied me
The music is too calm.
I like it calm
So nice not having to list😮en to constant repetitive talking.
Thank you for this - I am glad you are enjoying the way I present my videos 😊
Amen
Please turn down your music. Thsnks❤
Thank you for watching. There is a volume button on every device.
Amateurish! You need to work a lot to be a better artist. Maybe tray other subject. Trees are not your thing. No volume, texture or shade,,,
I feel so sad for you that you leave comments like this one on other people’s videos. I hope you are ok.
Whats wrong with you? Show us your Art 😅
