This is so helpful Dianne! In fact I asked you for particularly this aspect, & you told me to observe the value of colors! And today I get to watch this video! I am so glad that I have found you! Let me say this, I wouldn't be where I am, without you! Your method of teaching is so sweet and to the point! Thank you Dianne!!
I watch a variety of artists on youtube, and you are by far the best at explaining how to approach a new painting and to logically work out the details. Thank you so much for sharing your quick tips!
This was wonderful, packed with so much information! Going to watch this video several times so as not to miss anything. Thank you for putting your heart and soul into your teaching.
Hi thank you so much for this video! I live in Sydney Australia. We have these beautiful mountains full of green trees which I think look like broccoli tops along the coast. I look at them everyday and wonder how to paint them. This video about snowy mountains gave me plenty of ideas. Thank you very much again 🥰🥰🥰
This is a fantastic clip with so many little nuggets of information!! You have explained this so so well and filled in some gaps in my knowledge that ive really been struggling with!! Thank you
Another amazing Quick Tip! I always learn so much that can be applied to so many painting subjects! It is so helpful to have you analyze the colors that appear in the reference photo. I am sure I would not have identified "orange." Definitely need more color mixing practice! MANY THANKS - your Quick Tips and lessons have helped me so much!!!
Another very informative video, many thanks. I noticed that your photo ref. has some bare branches on the right and I have real problems painting groups of bare trees in the foreground of snowy scenes. I struggle to capture their individual forms and I often over/under do the branches. Do you have any advice? Again many thanks. You are great and inspiring tutor.
Clusters of bare branches usually translate as linear textures rather than individual images. Those can usually be interpreted with a really ratty bristle brush with only the tips of it pushed into the paint, then lightly stroked in the direction you see the cluster moving. The value contrast usually needs to be kept relatively close, depending upon how the light is hitting the branches. I will put this on our filming schedule, but it won't appear until August because we film a couple of months in advace.

Hi Dianne thanks once again for your invaluable teachings....where can we get the value scale you are using
Alka, all major art supply stores carry them. Here's the link to Jerry's Artarama -- www.jerrysartarama.com/gray-scale-and-value-finder
👍
Thanks!
Kindly guide me how to paint trees when the viewer is looking on the top of trees like from tall building or an airplane
Imagine you are looking down and that the sun is at four o'clock. What would you see?
