My '4 techniques to paint pine trees' video is the most popular video on my channel, so I thought I'd release a more detailed, real time version of one of my favourite pine trees to paint. Enjoy!
Adding drk green shadows under the clumps of branches creates a nice effect.
Very pretty evergreen Julia! Fun fact: years ago when I was a hairstylist if we added darker color to gain more shadow we referred to it as low lights to avoid confusion for our clients. Highlights was used to describe lighter colors in the blonde family. My stylist still uses these terms today. The other day I was listening to a tutorial and the artist also called her darker colors low lights. I thought that was great. Blessings to you and everyone!
Thank you so much!!! I'm just starting out and I have been trying to paint these and always look like triangles!!! I finally made a tree this morning that actually looks like a tree!!!! I'm so happy!!!😊
You are so welcome!
I loved this Detail Pine Tree Tutorial!! Adding in that darker pigment at the BOTTOM really brings the tree to LIFE ! Thank you for that tip!!
Thank you, I thought so too!
This is the best evergreen tutorial I have found. Thank You!
Wow what a compliment - thank you!
Omg! Trees gave been my nemesis!! I found your video last night. I wish I could share a picture here! It's all about the right brush. Thank you!!!!!
Share it on instagram!
@@JuliaLisArt OK. Can you tell me how? Post on my IG and tag you? What is your OG acct? Thanks!!
This is gorgeous! Thank you for a lovely tutorial.
Thanks!
love this simple yet elegant painting. Can't wait to try this!
Best of luck!
You are such a natural teacher. Love your video
Thank you so much!
Ever since I've seen Bob Ross do his happy little trees I was hooked but I have found it very challenging to do in acrylic paint and in watercolors. So far you're explanation And demonstration is the easiest to follow and I'm pretty happy with my one little tree. I will practice a few more tonight. I thought they would be so much easier.Lol. Thank you
That's so awesome to hear, thank you for sharing your success :)
Your video is outstanding! This is the best instruction I have seen! Thank you❤️
Thanks so much!
THANK FOR ANOTHER GREAT TUTORIAL! I'M LEARNING TONS OF TECHNIQUE FROM YOU 🥺❤️🧡
This tutorial was very helpful indeed. I can’t believe how much affect adding the black made on the dimensionality of your branches. I know trees are supposed to be easy to do but I personally don’t find them so easy. I appreciate how you break it all down in an intelligible fashion. Thank you, Merry Christmas 🎄 🥰
I'm so happy you found this helpful!
Absolutely gorgeous
Thank you!
Excellent instruction! This helped me a lot! Thank you!
I'm so glad!

Thanks so much. I'm just starting to learn watercolors and seeing your technique really helps.
I'm so glad!
I also love seeing growth in finances. Steady wins the race. Love, love Berkshire Hathaway. Just 2 shares of B has major grown.
You make it look so easy!
Don't overthink it :)
I’m loving the Princeton brushes and just started using the brush that’s she’s using in her video and these brushes are fantastic. I tend to use too much water and this brush allows me to control my water more.
Im glad it works for you!
Hi! Have been watching quite a few of your videos and I noticed in this one that your brush has a really nice pointed tip. I didn't see the type of brush you were using in your comments so I thought I'd ask. Thank you for your wonderful tutorials, very relaxed and enjoyable!
This is a Princeton brush but the tip is deceiving - I do not recommend this brush!
Ok, thank you for responding to my question. The tree sure looks good!
So helpful, thank you!
:)

No tv. No way. We now watch more watercolor RUclips than reg TV. Then bought supplies and giving it a try. Thanks for sharing. So going to try this project.
Have fun!
Thank you
You're welcome
This is a very helpful video! Have a brush very close to one you are using with this long point “not a rigger” and going to try this one!
Paint consistency looks more like “tea” & do you tap it on paper towel before do light tapping? Still practicing tree technique. Ty!!
Hi Lisa,. This brush you are using looks different than your normal or the ones listed in supplies used ,..I like the firm point ,. beautiful tutorial,. as always Thank you
This is an expensive princeton brush that I DO NOT recommend. Maybe I got a bad brush but I really don't like it.
Amazing madam beautiful
Can you share which #12 brush you are using here? Thanks. Great tutorial and I think your trunk is just fine!
If it's the black one - it's a Princeton but I do not recommend this brush. It's not great quality.
Sorry whats the name of the initial pointy brush? I clicked one by one in the description but it cant be just a round brush. What type of brush is this pse? Any other recommendations? Many thx
The black one is a princeton and I don't recommend it!
Is this wet on dry or wet on damp?
Wet on dry
What type of brush did you use?
I do not recommend this brush.
What brush? You said a 12 Princeton but there is no Princeton in your supplies listed below
Because I don't recommend that brush at all - it's horrible.
Hi Julia - I’m new to your channel and want to let you know how helpful your tutorials have been in my return to water colors! However, I do have one constructive comment - I think your “pine trees” would be better served if you referred to them as - “Evergreens”. “Pine” trees are just one kind of distinct “Evergreen”. I know that you’re not trying to do botanical renderings but I find, that they often may more closely resemble evergreens - other than Pine. Now, I also know, that in the greater scheme of things - this is just not that big a deal but “Evergreen” - should you choose to use it - is a more generic term and allows you to do whatever floats your boat! Without comment?
Regardless, thank you for sharing your many talents and tips!😊
Hi Ellen! Thank you for your suggestion! Though you are correct, most people refer to evergreens as 'pine trees' so I use that key word for the algorithm haha. Thanks for watching!
I hear ya Julia! Thanks for responding.
The branches of a pine tree are never horizontally straight.The branches have a slope.
Harry Vu
aren’t darker colours called shadows? 🤷🏼♀️
Yes, I don't think about what I say too much when I'm painting haha.
She did call them shadows multiple times. Only one time, she said highlights. There's no need to be rude.
Interesting... it looks reasonably realistic but the trunk is not quite thick enough... otherwise really lovely...😊😍
Why are you adding black to green and not red????? amateur who is not classically trained and has no idea on color theory
Never claimed I was a pro. I say it all the time in my videos that I have no formal training and that if you want to know about color theory, this channel ain't for you.
Julia, I am a a fan of yours. Truly I am, but this was not one of your better trees. I live in the Pacific North West and we do not have, nor have I ever seen a conifer where the branches go straight out from the trunk. Also that is a pathetic trunk. A tree that tall would likely have a more massive trunk. That said, I like your darker shadow green and and the random suggestion. I know you do better trees than this. I remain your loyal fan.
Ah my friend - there are a lot more 'pathetic trunks' where this came from LOL. I personally love this tree but everyone of course is entitled to their own opinion. This is an old tutorial so I hope things have improved since then!
