Bill Alexander Painting Tips: Palette Knife Fir Tree

Bill could paint with anything! Even his shoe! Today he shows you how to create beautiful trees using the Palette Knife.

Points To Consider:

  • Bill is painting on a wet canvas

  • He is using a dark color because the trees are fairly close to the viewers

  • He varies the width of the branches as he touches the canvas

  • When he scratches the tree trunk in he is removing paint which makes a path to add the trunk color back in. He just touches the canvas here and there because the trunk only shows up in a few places because the branches on the front of the tree covers the trunk

  • He is highlighting mostly on the right side of the tree
