River landscape for painting #60! painting rivers with the right perspective can be so tricky and I'm excited to take you through this process and show you my tips. Take this one slow, I work on it in sections so you don't have to work to fast, and I have attached the outline and finished painting so you can see where we're going to end up. I can't wait to see how you do with this one! Please let me know if you have any questions.

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(probably closer to phthalo blue), indigo and sap green. I don't use all the colors, but I will name them as I mix them. Feel free to use pre mixed convenience colors as well.

Brushes: round 4 - Princeton brand

Yay! I’m so excited for this one. I live on a small river and have had a hard time with the perspective when trying to paint it.

Kristin this is a beautiful pic! You are amazing. I’d love to see one of your large paintings. ❤️

Just what I needed! Can’t wait to try it, but I’m way behind and trying to do them in order.

I love your little paintings and instruction. These small bites are making the learning process a lot clearer. Thank you! 🙏🎨💕

Really like this one. You always seem to make a couple seemingly random strokes that just finish it off beautifully.

One thing confuses me: you talk a lot of wet-on-wet on the landscape, but what i see is wet-on-dry on all except the water. What did i miss?
