    I live in South Florida so I’ve painted my share of palms. I use a couple sizes of filbert brushes for the fronds. I hold the brush perpendicular to the paper. They hold a lot of paint so you don’t run out halfway through the frond. By rotating the brush as you go you can get some nice variation of the leaves.

    Much obliged, Mr. Clark! One of the joys of many of your presentations is they're not overwhelming or tend to scare me away (although you have projects I'm not ready for yet!). Watching you, like here, I think, "I can do this!", and so far, they've worked beautifully for me. I've only been using colour a year now, but have sketched constantly since my teens. You are a blessing!
