In this oil painting tutorial, I'll demonstrate brush techniques for painting trees with oils. You will learn how to use three different paint brushes to paint realistic tree leaves and foliage. I'll show you what paint brushes to use to recreate different tree foliage effects for trees in the foreground and background of your oil painting.
I'm a professional landscape artist with over 20 years of experience in oil painting. My KZfaq Channel is dedicated to helping people learn how to paint in oils. I really believe that everyone can learn how to paint!

Hi Michael To me, this video is worth 'a hundred of your others' (as it were) as I now appreciate the finite aspects of your technique. I want to thank you so much for showing us the 'nuts and bolts' of the painting process and very much hope that you'll be delivering up the other techniques that you employ for rendering both distant and closer trees. Quite superb Michael. Best wishes Nick Harvey

I have been watching your painting techniques recently ,you are simply superb. Being in the medical profession ,had no time but painting was always my passion since childhood .I never had any formal training. Watching these videos I learnt a lot ,thank you so much. Today I tried a landscape ,wish I could show it to you.

I’ve learned more watching you paint than I have in the two years I’ve been following different tutorials of other painters. Thank you so much for showing us how to use different brushes. Much respect

Love your videos! They’re exactly what I needed to see demonstrated. That fast-forward and using a blank piece of paper to show what the application looks like, while describing its shape, set your instructions above all others I’ve watched.

Very useful for painting trees in acrylic too, the details of the brush stokes was very helpful. That change from some of the dark mottle to the completely-mottled-with-branches caused my head to explode, had to go back and study the frames over and over, have a long ways to go but I've produced a nice tree, thank you!

@zhanatbaidaralin4960 4 жыл бұрын

You way to paint is so amazing! You are a great master, with unbelievable patience and skill. I am a choreographer and ballet teacher and I have been watching your classes for almost two years, and now , after latest classes I started understand your uniqueness in full. I started learning painting two years ago, my wife thinks that I am too lazy, and she forced me to start to do something, like painting, frankly I was happy, because that was my dream from my childhood. I do acrillics, it is easier, faster,less doing all the preparations for the oil painting, which is an appear class not for me. I am 69, but I am getting deeper and deeper in painting, and understanding , that I will never be as strong as a professional artist, but anyway it gives me a great satisfaction sometimes. Most important, I learn a lot of understanding of this hardest, exhausting job ,and of course of understanding of this most beautiful art. Thank you for your existence , and your generosity to share your fantastic talent and knowledge.

Bravo, I love this video. I once asked you if your brush was rubber or something. You told me no, that it was a rigger brush or a reg paint brush, I can't remember your exact words. But there it is; you flatten it with the thick paint to cause that flattened look to it. LOL The reason I had asked you that was because I had see some plastic or rubber gadgets at the art stores around here and I thought that maybe, where you live they had something with a light rubber on the end of a brush handle. LOL I love that you told us that secret. Thank you Michael James Smith. Your paintings are amazing, the detail is absolutely fantastic, every part of your painting looks so realistic. One time you were standing in front of one of your paintings while you were giving your intro to your video and I literally thought that you were outside; that's how real they look. I love your art and I love your videos, I love that you took that extra time to show us what those paint strokes look like on a separate white canvas ( that helps more than you could know) and I love that you share all that you share with us. Thank you so much for all of that, Thank you! thank you!! thank you!!!
