Lesson 2 :: Landscape #4 (your magic arrow flies with precision)
The underpainting is serving me well as a map at this stage. I’m painting the trees a mixture of ultramarine, white and a bit of raw umber to give it a more organic flavor, which will become the shadows behind the trees once they are completed. Remember, in this piece I am working from dark shadows under the trees and later will add the lighter values on top. Also just blocked in a neutral green for the open areas along the banks.
