I have always struggled with leaves and trees, so this exercise was very good for me. Did I get it, no of course not, but it made a lot of sense. So continued practice is something I will do.

Ooh, beautiful work, Kia. I think your leaves are just perfect and I like where you crossed leaf over leaf.

This turned out beautifully, Kia, and I love the variety of colors and intensities that you achieved. Curious as to what sized brush you used to get the "chunkier" leaves. My #6 round only wanted to paint long skinny leaves (it controls me not the other way around LOL)
