Lighting the Landscape & TREES

RECAP:
  • INSPIRATION from a TREE
  • We covered lighting & temperature
  • Exercise: drawing 5 light sources
  • Looked at examples of warm & cool light in paintings & noting temperature  in the shadows, although you often see both warm & cool in the lights & shadows
  • Learned about the Kelvin temp for light & the 7 shades of daylight
  • Drawing & painting Trees 3 main steps: 1. SHAPE 2. Form (value) 3. Texture. Exercise: Draw the main 8 shapes for trees. Exercise: shade those 8 samples with a specific light source in mind Exercise: Painting the image below keeping the shapes of branches in mind with their values stated
  • Watched 2 video segments on drawing & painting trees. Links to complete videos are below.
