Working on the tree trunk will give the plenty of opportunity to develop your own style and technique, but here I’m working wet-in-wet using a #4 round brush well loaded with a strong shadow colour made from Antwerp Blue and Brown Madder. At the base of the trunk I leave some negative painting areas for later grass to show up. Also note the messy spot beside my brush were I was careless. Never mind, with clean water and a scrub brush I can lift this out with our blot and lift technique. 300 lb. paper is very forgiving.

This is how it should look at this stage. Later you may come back and modify this to suit your personal style. That will do for today. Tune in again for the remaining images.

Here’s a peek at a brand new artwork I’ve been creating. "Open Road" is mixed media, including tissue, ink, acrylic, and watercolor. The piece measures 10×10, on heavy canvas board. I’m still adding a few finishing touches, but enjoying where I’m headed!
"Open Road" was inspired by the Melange team on Etsy, and its January creative prompt of Beginning. The view of an open road always makes me think of freedom and heading into an unknown future . . . a new beginning, for sure. See the other Beginning-inspired pieces at the Melange blog .
