In this video, Bill will show you how to create a row of “planted” trees. It is a great lesson on perspective. He uses color, size, and placement to show perspective.

Points To Consider:

• Closer trees are larger and appear further apart.
• Bill uses the dark to define the trunks but uses the highlights to form roundness.
• You see Bill painting quickly here because of the time clock that was running. He only had 28:30 min for each project.
• When Bill painted at home, he took his time and was more careful.
• Notice when Bill applies the foliage to the trees the bristles don’t really bend. He is using the brush like a rubber stamp. We’ve seen him do this before.
• He darkened the color for the foliage in the foreground. Colors appear darker when the objects are closer.
