hi today we're painting sunlight on the mountains with some bright yellow flowers in the foreground
for my sky i've used cobalt blue and gradually made it lighter as i'm moving down the canvas
then i've added a little bit of rose pink to my blue mix
and i'm sweeping this upwards just to add a little bit of a rosy glow to the sky
then i'm taking my cobalt blue again i've added a tiny amount of black
and some white and i'm using this color to block out the mountains
i'm using a flat brush but you could use a round brush if this is more comfortable for you
next i'm blocking out the grass area with sap green
i'm also adding a few spots of deep cadmium yellow here and there and blending those colors together
next i'm making my warm orangey brown color for the sunlight hitting the side of the mountains
for this i'm using a little bit of cadmium orange some rose pink some cadmium yellow deep i've also
added a little cobalt blue to just dampen that color down a little and make it less vibrant
i'm taking my time with this section to make sure that i get it right because once this has been
mapped out it really will make painting the rest of the mountain so much easier
now i've added some white to my original bluey gray mix
and i'm using this to paint the snow on the shaded side of the mountains
i've added white to my orangey brown color to add those extra highlights just on the edges
of the mountain i'm using a smaller round brush for this so i can really add in those details
now i'm coming in with white paint and i'm adding the snow on the mountains but only on the sunlit
side on the side that's in shadow it won't be white it'll be just a lighter blue color
now we're going to block out our pine trees i've added a tiny amount
of black to my sap green to darken it a little and i'm using a small fill
but brush you could also use a small round brush to block out those trees
we'll add some highlights on the side of our trees now i've added a little bit of cadmium yellow and
white to my green and i'm also going to use the warm orange color i used on the mountains as well
now we can add our flowers in the foreground i have my cadmium yellow i've darkened it
ever so slightly to begin with and then i'll start coming in with a bright yellow later on
you can place the flowers wherever you feel they'll look good
just make them smaller as they go into the distance
and here's some other videos that i think you might like to watch next i'll see you next time
