10/100 tiny painting challenge for 2025 (Patreon)

Snowy birch trees with a red cardinal for #10! I would recommend watching the whole video first to get an idea of the colors used and the general process and then watching it again to paint it with me. Practice the card scratching technique on a scratch piece of paper first to get a hang of how it works. You can use cardboard, plastic, cards etc for this technique. Let me know what questions you have.

Paper: arches 140 lb cotton 9X12" paper that I've cut into 3X3" pieces, giving me 12 pieces per page.

Paint: The palette I'm using today is the split primary palette by letter sparrow: cad yellow deep, lemon yellow, cad red, magenta, ultramarine blue, cerulean, indigo and sap green. I don't use all of these colors in this painting but I mention each one as I use them

Brushes: round size 4 - Princeton brand
