Finished Painting
The following tutorial series covers just under 5 hours. The full painting is available with colour coding and narration for full guidance.
This piece was a joy to create and I hope many of you will enjoy working along with me. I took many photos of blue tits this year, one of my favourite birds. I paired this one up with the gorgeous blossoms of the quince tree blossoms to create what I think is a special composition.
I’ll take you step by step through this whole piece showing how I create backgrounds with depth. Each stage is narrated and there are colour codes popping up on screen to guide you through the whole process.
This is a great piece to learn on and although the background has a lot going on, I’m with you each step of the way.
Then if you want to try out these techniques on another blue tit image, click HERE to access the bonus reference images. You’re welcome to make use of these for your own compositions.
