Sunlit South Myrtle Barn Under Cloudy Skies

In this tutorial, Vinita Pappas will guide you through each stage of a landscape painting from a photo: starting with the sky and transitioning to the background and foreground. You'll learn the best techniques for blending colors, creating depth and dimension, and adding vibrant details to the painting. With a reference photo, Vinita creates the perfect balance of colors and shapes to make the painting look natural and visually appealing. You'll also learn the importance of letting each stage of the painting dry completely, and how to use a neutral color palette to make your painting stand out.
