I love painting and to watch you paint these with such ease and detail was a pleasure. You make it look possible for those of us that love birch trees.

[@JuliaLisArt]

I'm glad you liked it, aren't birch trees gorgeous?

[@MarkPrimavera]

Julia, I think you nailed it in this painting, fabulous tutorial! I agree when you said these branches are black, these would be older branches more towards the bottom of the tree which eventually die off. The sizing and shapes in the painting are perfect.
I work in the forest for part of the year, I'm a Forest Ecology Technician) and have taken so many reference photos of birch trees so I think now is time after ten years to pick up the paint brushes and watercolours again.
~Thank you for sharing.

[@JuliaLisArt]

Ive never heard of that job title, what do you do as a forest tech?

[@MarkPrimavera]

​ @JuliaLisArt LOL- here's the short version - I do tree diameter and height measurements in Jack pine study plantations, soil sampling for nutrient analysis, ground water sampling and vegetation assessments in particular areas in the Jack pine studies. Along with this is mapping and GPS work.

[@sharonf871]

[@DS40764]

I love your method, using the white and grey ,but I would also use a credit card to make the details

[@JuliaLisArt]

How would you use a credit card? Never heard of this!

[@joanpringle-canning2834]

🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@kathrynswantee1274]

I am wondering why you chose to use black paint rather than mix a dark neutral?

[@JuliaLisArt]

Black is more dramatic and contrasting

[@BB-nz5sk]

Love these bitch trees. You are very easy to follow which is great for newbies!!
