I’ve been trying to understand how to paint a snowy mountain for so long. Most artists just use a palette knife and when I try that it always looks like a giant blob. Thank you for showing how to add the tiny details step by step and using different colors. Even though I’ve never touched procreate, this is helping me understand how to paint better.

that's amazing, when you watch the tutorial the whole drawing makes sense, it's almost "easy and logical" when you see the different step however when you compare what we started with with the end result it's a complete difference. it's awesome i love it

[@agravina1]

Thanks! Love these tutorials. Great work

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Thank you so much 🙏

[@enlighten92]

Made my first draft of this yesterday. I have no exp in drawing, painting or sketching and yet people around me are amazed. Thanks for the tutorial. It's wonderfully relaxing to simply it watch it too.

[@mellowsunflower]

when you started out with the sky and the mountains I was like “Aw yeah, maybe there’s hope for me yet,” but as you continued on with the trees I started losing hope for myself 🤣 this is incredible. beautiful job

[@abigailcoe3955]

I have redone my trees twice now lol but just be sure to follow his instructions and put them on a different layer and keep trying! Digital art is so different yet so similar to typical art forms. You have to practice and figure out what pleases your eye 😊 you got this!

[@blueorchid3240]

Lmao! SAME 😄

[@Isengardtom]

I’m always envious of people with creative talents like this

[@lakesha444]

This is exactly how Bob Ross was. He always loved his trees and Mountains. I love watching his videos and I just came across yours.

[@harrybarrow6222]

This video demonstrates just how much of what we see is “in the eye of the beholder “. Rough sketching and streaks of colour result in our perception of a beautiful natural landscape.

[@Ropius777]

I learned so much from this video. Moving from traditional charcoal and graphite to digital has been a real struggle and this is the first time I feel like I've made a significant step forward. Thanks James.

[@JaimeBuckley]

James, thank you for this ...and for all your amazing work. I've been a professional illustrator (mainly cartoonist) for over 30 years and the one thing I've always wanted to learn was to paint. I know, I know...but I've never been to school for art--so making a full-time living with my art is already a shocker---but I want to PAINT. This has inspired me. Truly. Good thing is, I use Procreate every day for work--and now I'm going to use it for a relaxing hobby! Subscribed. Notifications on. Will be back!! - Jaime

[@nikitabanwat9227]

This is wonderful. I have always thought of landscapes to be really daunting to paint. But you break every thing down so well that I want to keep painting landscapes. Great great job.

[@ramonlua4389]

Hey man I just want to say thank you. I’ve drawn a lot of sketches on paper never did a landscape. First day on an iPad/ digital drawing and spend the last four hours trying to paint using your tips. I put the trees a little low so the reflection for me is off. I’ll probably go back to the layers and try to move the trees up. Either way it looks amazing! Huge thanks I appreciate your tutorial and you helped me find my confidence/ courage to draw outside of my comfort zone. Words can’t express how grateful I am. Honestly, thank you! Keep doing what you do!

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

[@derekf4366]

This really helped me grow! I love this one. Especially how it followed the basic tree tutorial. Thank you! Do you ever mix brushes with the HB if you were going for more detail on the trees or do you just stick to the HB for sketching and the airbrush for painting? Loved the use of the turpentine for streaks in the water. I've tried liquify but it didn't look right. This tip was top notch. Love your work

[@kellykillam8643]

You just got another Subcriber.... Excellent tutorial... I've been stuck ever since I got Procreate.... I feel like I can progress now thanks to you - Can't wait to get home from work!

[@tomaandreiRO]

I’ve learned and I am still learning so much from you and your tutorials! You are the one that made me return to my long lost passion: drawing. I am far from being a good artist, but your work is helping me get there. Thank you!!!

This is the first painting I did on iPad. It’s so satisfying, makes me feel calm. I always wanted to paint Bob Ross paintings but do not have the space or gear. Now I can! Thank you!

Your ability to faithfully put onto a “canvas” that image in your brain is a true gift. I also enjoyed your sunset over the ocean some time ago. Thank you.

[@AWP_ART]

Hey James! Awesome work! Yea I agree with you on the time. Most of my work tends to be in the 40-50 hr. range when it’s a big project. I do get a lot of people telling me that I take to long on drawing but it takes me long because I like paying attention to detail as much as I can. Plus it’s also a slight learning process for me. Hope all is well man!

[@hemslonnigum]

I appreciate that you only used one or two of the default brushes included in the software. This was my first digital painting and I'm very pleased with how it turned out. Just lots of practice and attention to detail. Thank you for breaking down your process so thoroughly.

[@stefanmuller9134]

[@huntress1812]

I just want to say to anyone watching this: Don't be afraid to use different artistic brushes! I know he mainly uses the soft air brushes in this video, which is fine! If that's the way you want to do it, go for it. But definitely don't be afraid to try new techniques to get a texture or look the way you like it, probably in a faster pace as well! Edit: Also, if you want your stokes to be more seamless/blended, use the smudge tool so you don’t see those brush marks :)
