VIDEO DESCRIPTION - This is a TIME LAPSED version on how to paint this lovely surreal landscape image of "LANDSCAPE BRUSHSTROKE" with acrylic paint. You can watch the full length video here: [ Ссылка ]

You'll learn simple painting techniques that will help you to develop a realistic natural looking body of water with distant land or island, a small piece of land near the shoreline, a weathered wooden dock adorned with twisted ropes and the illusion of a paint brush painting the image onto the canvas. Maybe the time of year is spring, summer, or early fall… you can use your imagination! Is it a fisherman's dock, a boat ramp, a pier or a boardwalk that disappears off the side of the canvas... you decide? You'll learn how to add atmospheric dimension in the sky and in the ripples of the water by painting in a loose abstract style using complimentary colors in the water. You'll also learn to use an impressionistic approach to painting the land areas with trees, grass, bushes and wild flowers that will add texture and dimension to the canvas. Adding a sunshine glow on the potted flowers, soft highlights on the posts with shadows below, and positioning the posts to have good perspective will be the key to making the elements come to life and have a real photo quality. The whimsical surreal aspects of having a 3-d paint brush in action is the perfect way to express creativity. The brush shows movement and looks realistic with the dissipating shadow. You'll learn how to paint bristles that flow, metal that shines and wood with a little grain for a convincing portrayal of an artists favorite tool. With the construction of the composition you'll learn to paint this realistic looking outdoor waterscape that may resemble a lake, pond, river, stream, or an ocean with a captivating story behind it. Make it your own with a boat floating by, or birds in the sky, or a lobster trap sitting on the shore… just have fun with it! This painting is sure to impress the viewer and compliment the décor of any room. Using only 3 brushes and 8 colors we'll create this conversational masterpiece with a magnificent lively energy in a charming tranquil setting. So let's get painting and let's get sipping!
