[@MB-kf3yx]

Thank you for posting these videos showing how to improve a composition through the use of simplification, value, temperature, and color. They are helpful examples on how to simplify complicated photo references. You also use very nice photo references.

This was a big help for my future painting. Thank you❤ I wanted to know which photoshop do you use for painting? Is it an app? Can you write the name of the photoshop plz?

[@philstarke.artist]

It’s the version of Photoshop that you have to download from their website. I use it on the desktop computer. For an iPad I use Procreate, it’s an app that cost about $20.

it seems like the trees in the very back should be lighter bc they are farther back. (in the picture with the rocks)

[@philstarke.artist]

Hi Ann, the trees in the background are in shadow (from a cloud shadow) and the foreground trees are in the sunlight. If they were both in the light then the background trees would be lighter.

I see that I don't use orange nearly enough. Thank you.

[@philstarke.artist]

I use orange as a modifier mostly
