I've become a fan of your paintings. I love these step by steps. I had a few painting lessons and the best tip I had from my instructor was when painting foliage was to start with PERMANENT HOOKER'S GREEN DEEP HUE. Yep that's an almost black green. Then mix it with over greens as you move forward. It gives great depth. I always started with black but it did change things in a good way to start with this color. Of course it's an acrylic.

I'm looking forward to your next steps. Wendy
