Fall gives leaves a new look as they adorn themselves with a completely different color and appearance. Hence, while painting fall leaves, you get to play with the colors, and fiddle with the shape and structure of the leaves as well. In case you're unaware as to what I'm going on about, don't worry. I came across a few tutorials on how to paint fall leaves, and they saved me a lot of time and effort, and I'm sure that you too can benefit from them.
To paint fall leaves, you need to be fully conscious of your color shading and blending skills. The better you are at them, the more beautiful your leaves will look. You can opt for a variety of colors, including orange, yellow, a light tone of crimson, and other suitable variations. If you're able to do it properly, your fall leaves will look perfect. Otherwise, they might not be so good to look at.
In this video tutorial, you’ll get to see how to paint fall leaves in a simple, yet beautiful manner. This leaf has a nice red texture to it, with bits of crimson here and there. The coloring is quite sublime, and the shades are very nicely done. This is an easy painting to work on, but you do need to give it a bit of time. Patience is key here. Follow the video, and don’t miss out on any step.
