Learn to Draw & Paint ANY Tree: Full Masterclass for Artists

Description

Welcome to the Trees Masterclass!

As an artist, you will always encounter trees at some point.
And in this course you will learn everything about drawing and painting them.

In different styles, different mediums and different types of trees.

It's a structured learning path with theory and practice, that you can go through at your own pace in order to build up the skill of creating any tree you like. No matter if you're doing it digitally or traditionally, only drawing or only painting.

I believe this will help you a lot as an artist and I've invested a lot of time and effort into putting this course together. So we have everything covered.

I'm "Duplo", I'm an experienced artist and designer from Germany. Trees have always been something that I've enjoyed drawing and painting, both traditionally since I was a kid and digitally as mainly work now.

For a long time, I didn't really know what I was doing, so I struggled with creating trees that look realistic. There was often something that just looked off. And I couldn't point out a good reason why.

But now, after lots of practice and research, I've discovered quite a few interesting principles, that you can rely on. They help me immensely when I create trees, and I don't even use references anymore.

When drawing/painting trees, you have so many options that it's both a blessing and a curse. There are so many different trees and so many different ways of depicting them, that it can seem overwhelming.

How can you depict something, that has a seemingly infinite amount of detail?

How can you make sure your tree looks realistic and like a real tree?

Should you always use a reference or are there ways to work around it?

How can you use brushes and pencils to paint and draw all those leaves?

Should you just go abstract?

Are there things that all trees have in common and that you can rely on when you create your own ones?

How can you make trees look natural together?

And where should you place them in your compositions?

These, and many other questions will be answered in this course!

We will first talk about the theory of creating trees.
Then I will show you how to create good basic shapes in drawing and painting.
Then drawing tree trunks and branches.
Followed by drawing foliage.
Then drawing basic trees and after that basic conifers.
Then we will draw three detailed artworks together, both with and without reference.

And after that, we'll do the same thing again for painting.

In the artwork section, we will create an oak tree, a birch tree, a coniferous tree/snowy pine tree, a savanna tree and an autumn tree. All in slightly different styles.

In the end, there is some extra theory about creating trees in perspective and putting them in groups and compositions.

That's all I could think off, and I think all you need in order to go out there and create any tree you like.

You really can participate in the exercises with any medium. Doesn't matter if it's just a pencil, a digital art software, watercolors, acrylics, oil paint or pen and ink. In this course you will learn all the technical aspects of trees and universal principles for creating them.

If you follow the rules and concepts of this course, you can make sure your trees look realistic.

And if you follow the practice sections, you'll have the skills to make them look awesome!

So, if you're interested, watch the "Introduction" and "About this course" lessons, where I explain how this course works and how you can participate.

Hope you have a great day!
