WCW079 Oh Christmas Tree

Photo Details

Poster: Holstein

KIa chose a video on painting a Christmas tree. I tried to get the glow of the lights as the artist did in the video. If there is one color that gives a rich glow, it would be quinacridone gold. Love using it. Added the sentiment with a micron pen. Added splatters. Come join us and show us your tree. TFL

Gorgeous Linda. I laughed myself silly when doing my Charlie Brown tree! At least it glows - haha!

I love the detailing you gave to your ornaments here a lot Linda, and the blue is so pretty for the lighting around this tree too

Fabulous! The glow on this gem radiates all around the tree especially around the edges where it meets the sky! The spattering is perfect...

Color me 'smitten' ... completely! Those ornaments, the branches with snow, and the wonderful branch strokes ... all to love!

Beautifully rendered Christmas tree Linda! Your baubles look perfect nestled in the branches of your snowy tree. Love the highlights on them!
