- Painting atmospheric trees is a tricky. That is why I turned to the Impressionists like Claude Monet for inspiration. In this video I answer a student's question about how to paint scraggly pine trees. I get out the art books and then the paint brushes to try and solve this painting problem.

I think you’re an incredibly talented painter and an even better teacher. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
Thanks so much 😊
I can’t tell you how much this has helped me with a painting I’m currently struggling with! Now I’m excited instead of defeated, thank you so much!!
Lovely to hear that, thank you.
What a pleasant painting done in a short amount of time! It proves that really stressing over the process shows in the final product.
You've expressed joy on a canvas imo.
Thank you. It is a joyful experience.
Thank you Malcolm for an excellent demo! Trees have always seemed so complicated for me as well as the color green, but you really simplify the complex. I love how you show us the reference pic simultaneously with your canvas and color palette and even explain how to work the brush for those tree trunks to keep it all loose. I am so happy to have stumbled upon you and am now a subscriber. You are both a great artist and a fantastic teacher, too!
Wow you are too kind. Thank you.
Very instructive! And beautiful study! I am inspired to give it a try. Thanks!
Love how the blue tree shadows echoe the bluish/purplish backlit foliage, that really "makes" the painting, that going back and forth between these 2 spots. Thanks for this demo !
That is a good point, thank you.
It's amazing how many diverse colours I miss seeing until it's pointed out. I will start looking for those blues and purples!
Excellent!
Thanks Malcolm; love that you teach and then demo...inspiring!
Thank you Mary

Always wondered how you do your sky holes
Ah thank you 😊
Love your tutorials! I took one of your courses too and it was money well spent. Simplicity, clarity👉growth. Much appreciated.
Happy to hear that, thank you
Thanks .... beautiful and very helpful. And yes I had forgotten about those that have come before us and indeed have faced these same issues.
Glad it was helpful! Yes, much to learn from them
Fantastic, Malcolm! Thank you so much for demonstrating how I to paint this reference photo. More than ever, I would love to walk on that pathway! And isn't that what a painting should inspire??? Also, I never thought of looking at the masters for a specific situation. That is great advice. I'm going to tackle this soon, which will probably take me hours, and yet once again, you made it look so easy. I greatly appreciate this video.
Thank you Joanne and especially for asking the question. I enjoyed it.
Just found this instruction video today. Glad I did. I really liked the explanation of the color choices, scene manipulation and finished product. This is what I was looking for. Thank you.
You're very welcome!
Amazing demo. each sentence carries so much info and clears our doubts. thank you for the video.
It's a pleasure, thank you
As usual, you are an outstanding teacher and artist...wow! This video is just what I needed, as my work is oriented towards an impressionistic style. Benn diong a lot of painting for commissions and the scope of those are impressionistic, with a few being very detailed in structure....this makes going 100% going impressionist somewhat difficult. Best to you Malcolm.
Thank you Robert. I'm glad this had helped you. All the best!
Bravo Malcolm! Grazie.
Thank you!
I enjoyed revisiting this scene, I always learn something new as I progress along my path.
Good to hear that, thank you
Beautiful! Such brilliant colors!
Thank you so much!
Great instructions! I am working on a big tree painting right now, this will help immensely! Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Really helpful, thank you, I'm going to do another version of a reference photo I have and try this style...
Excellent, enjoy your painting

Thank you for this wonderful example of an impressionist method method. By the way, I bought two of your books and am enjoying them very much. Carole - Florida

Really enjoyed this one
Thank you
Claude Monet was so fond of my great great uncle's oak trees that were painted at Fontainebleau, he made copies of them as well as named the paintings after him. They are called the Bodmer Oak. My uncle's name was Carl Bodmer. His journey with German Prince Maximilian in America is similar to that of Louis and Clark, finished less than 20 years after theirs. He exhibited paintings at the solon in Paris in 1850 and has amazing records of original American landscape and natives in artwork. Not only are we relatives, but have experience in the same countries, cities and are both artists. It must run in the family. 😂
Wow, what an amazing connection. I hope there are a few Monet paintings in the family too 😍 Thanks for the story.
I just found you today, and also just heard of water mixable oils last night. Couldn’t hit subscribe fast enough!
Excellent!
Brilliant...you demonstrated a complex thing in so simple way!!! Love to join your class if available online👍
Thank you, links in the description 😊
thanks for the tip, im going to try the larger sky holes with more variations, hopefully it will take away the blocky look my trees get
Thanks Kathy
Ver helpful. I’m inspired.
Glad it was helpful!
Very cool, uncomplicated and nice study
Strong, intense colors ... sometimes like stained glass
I like the twirling of the trees
Fresh & free like a bird in spring. Inspiring
