How To Create Depth with Negative Painting Techniques in Watercolor

[@SusanBurgett-h1g]

I live in Arkansas. I have never seen a birch tree! You make them look gorgeous! Maybe one day i will travel north to see your birch trees ❤

[@renabritnell5497]

I am in Arkansas also. Would love to get to see birch trees!

I lived in NW Arkansas and I planted a couple birch trees in the back yard. They are beautiful especially after it snows!

[@KarenRiceArt]

You should! They are so wonderful to paint 😊

[@MicheleTuccini]

I’ve always lived at a house that had birch trees in the yard, so always felt a connection to them. As a watercolor artist, I almost always include birch in my landscape paintings!

Karen, you make it so effortless looking absolutely amazing. I’m gonna take a stab at it right now but as always amazing job.

[@KarenRiceArt]

Amazing. Happy painting 😊🎨

We never tire of silver birch tree painting! I love that you are doing this in manageable sections which makes it a relaxing experience - love negative painting 🤩. Your new favourite blue (Indanthrone) is a gorgeous colour. Can’t wait to let loose on this one 👍. Big thanks 🙏😘
