Thank you Taria! From Arizona, grateful you included a palm tree... my nemesis when painting.

[markfalconer_paints]

This was great. Nice to hear you like using your colors as they are for foliage. The biggest piece I got was remembering foliage is ORGANIC so paint loose and fun!!!😊

[moiralangley]

Exactly what I needed to know. Thanks !!

Love those greens too- my new other favorite green is the qor's Sap green- Qor watercolors have a big whoooosh effect if you like that for wet on wet.

This is So Helpful & timely because I am currently on holiday in Florida (USA) and I want to quickly capture foliage in my sketches! I love these tips so much!! By the way, I pre-ordered your new book when you initially announced it!! Looking forward to getting it in Dec!

[debbieking]

Thanks Taria! As usual, you’ve shared some great info. I’m looking forward to your new book.

Do it both ways. Sometimes my pallet has the closest match to what I want. Sometimes it doesn’t so I will mix. Did I hear you state you have some greens pre-mixed on your pallet? That would be a nice and quick way to get the greens you want if you are painting in an area where most all the trees and shrubs are the same. If I were using tubes instead of pans that might just be something I would try. Looking forward to your book. Any chance here in the States one will find it at Barnes & Noble or a similar store? Just asking for me. To heck with my friend. I enjoy your tips and demonstrations.

@tarias_sketchy_adventures Would you share a list of your current colors in your tin? I believe you said your base set was White Night plein air set...have you removed/replaced any from the base set? Your work is amazing and I love how your colors play so nicely together. Thank you for sharing so many wonderful videos!
