Tutorial: How to Colour Trees & Leafy Foliage

[@menm_91]

Never apologize for "rambling on." As an American, I would listen to you read the phone book, THAT'S how much I love your accent. Beautiful technique. Thanks for sharing.

[@jennainman7657]

Thank you for doing this in real time and including all the steps. This now feels doable to me as a beginner. Thank you!

[@jennainman7657]

That minty green really adds depth and shadows that really enhances this tree. I love it.

[@quiltknit]

True Impressionist Painting Pens! Great 👍 Claire!

[@kittyfriend4]

I watched an artist paint a tree using varying intensities of green and it looked just like this! You are a natural artist at heart Claire.💞

[@gailducrest8851]

Yes, Claire. Real Time. Always better.

[@Keniv.]

Claire this amazing! I am definitely going to use this technique! You made me actually belly laugh, when you were talking, you said would, then said “Wood!!” and laughed, it just tickled me, lol. Thank you for another great tutorial. 💖

[@valwadsworth3044]

Great way to do leaves! I have to get 2 more greens and I an all set. Claire I love to hear you talk about doing stuff and whatever. I listen and watch your channel while I am at work. It is very calming, but it also makes me want to leave work and go color! LOL

[@robertasoggiu2304]

WoW! Thank you so much for this tutorial Claire!! Would love a tutorial on the whole page colored by you. Love your coloring and your tutorials are amazing!!! I learn so much👍👍😘😘🌟❤️

[@patriciagutuskey9509]

Very impressive technique and so simple. Thanks

[@ColorfullyOptimistic]

I live for simple. Don't get me wrong, there are days I'm fine layering and layering a single flower, but as a naturally impatient person, I just want to see it done. It's beautiful!

[@Keeva-]

This is such a great tutorial. It's so easy to be overwhelmed by tutorials if you don't feel like you're a skilled colourist, but literally anyone can do this, and the end result is beautiful!

[@isobelmoore7025]

This is amazing, thank you!! Everytime I watch tutorials I find myself needing to buy new kit hahaa

[@galebee]

I love this! So simple yet so effective. Your tutorials are the best, Claire, and I love that you do real time colouring. I find it a bit annoying when it's speeded up as I need to see what is happening. I'm going to buy a set of poscas now I've seen this! Great way to use them! I'm also happy to hear you 'waffle'! I much prefer this kind of video than the live chat ones. Would love to see a tutorial on the shoes, it looks amazing!

[@suzeh9535]

Have saw you do this before, but I’ve never used it. Will defonuse it on these trees :)

[@suebailey245]

Such an effective technique - thank you 😊

[@cateyes3813]

This is just... brilliant. When I looked at the first one you’d already done, I thought the white specks were probably done with a white gel pen and were quite deliberate! It looks great. I would love love love a tutorial about trees and foliages (atm I primarily use colour pencils) from a colouring that DOESN’T have any shading, lines or anything helpful. Because when I see that - like this huge thing in a colouring book that I know that it’s trees, foliage or fields of grass but all they give you is this... massive outline that’s sometimes the largest part of the colouring page that you have to do. Any tips, videos or advice about those gruesome things would be sooooo helpful. Your videos have everything I look for in tutorials. Some of the things off the top of my head that I love about your tutorials are: - they’re well planned beforehand (sometimes when tutorials obviously have had no pre-planning, it really shows, they can be kind of chaotic and they waste a lot of time by being so unprepared); - your tutorials have no awful or otherwise background music (that’s a deal-breaker for me); - you speak very clearly and put things in a way that is a lot easier to understand than some others; - you explain why a certain method works and give an example of the potential unwanted effects of some other methods; - you cover subjects that everyone who colours would want to know; and - your tutorials are just generally so well-structured. I’m sure I’ve left a few out - this is just a few things that occurred to me now as I was watching this tutorial. So thank you very much. But yeah, a tutorial showing what you do to handle it when there’s NO pre-shading at all with things like bushes/trees/fields etc - I suspect that might be something that other people (probably many other people) may struggle with as well. 💖 from Australia 🇦🇺

[@ColourwithClaire]

Thank you so mich for such a lovely and thorough comment! I will try and work on something like that but I also struggle when there's no shading xx

[@juliecrainich8154]

Trees overwhelme me because I don't know what to do and don't want to spend a lot of time. This technique takes care of both. Thank you for sharing this an keeping the video in normal speed

[@timelessdiamondpaintingsby9043]

So pretty.

[@sdwvinyldesign1291]

Claire I have no idea how I got unsubscribed from you. But glad to be back!

[@julieburrows2757]

Claire you're so creative , thank you for sharing such an effective & easy technique for foliage I can't wait to try this! Thanks also for all your wonderful tutorials, I always look forward to watching as you've taught me so much. Sending best wishes 😊

[@patriciaschoenberg1261]

This looks great! Thank you!

[@carolhowell3671]

Hi claire, what a great way to do tree's and bushes. I would love to see a video on your shoe it's so cute. Thank you

[@pattytolliver2651]

I really enjoyed watching you work on the sneakers pages. I've seen several productions of those two pages and yours was the only one that had flowers in the trees. Your process was as simple as you said it was. I am considering trying that with Tombow dual brush marker. That's what I have so I thought I would work with what I have, right? Anyway, I really enjoyed watching you and feel as if I've learned something new. Thank you.

[@dreamdivine256]

Thank you so much,i always avoided colouring trees😊

[@crystalfranklin2583]

What a cleverly awesome idea! I love it and shall have to try it soon! Thank you, Claire! ❤

[@wenwake7584]

So simple, quick and effective. I hadn't even thought of using my Posca's in colouring books... they've only been used on my blackboard. Until now!! Fab tutorial, Claire x

[@ellenscofield6952]

I bet this technique would look great in autumn colors too.

[@ColourwithClaire]

Yes!

[@deniseyoung8157]

Thankyou so helpful.Can you also show us how to colour the converse boot to, you have done amazing colours on it.👏🌟🤗

[@meganklobchar7014]

I loved that you used paint pens that's something i haven't really seen someone do before. Looks great I am gonna buy some paint pens today. 😃😄😊

[@peetrasplace7574]

Can you please make a tutorial on how you do the shoe aswell? Just Love it! 😍

[@grannysharp772]

That’s so cool. I never ever would have thought about using POSCA paint pens like this. So far I’ve only used them mainly for backgrounds.

[@NikkiinNiagara]

Thank you so much! I have lots of Poscas and am not using them enough. I love your tutes as I also don't have the patience for intricate colouring.

[@charmainegill9223]

Just red dots in the tree would make it look like apples. Great work as usual Claire!

[@janebeacham5941]

Brilliant tutorial, as always *skips off to order green poscas* 😁

[@ClaireHoloway]

Love it 👊🏻😃🎨

Great tutorial Claire, what i really like is whe don't seeen any Dark black lines, the flowers are cool too for myself i would play with other greens color for that kind of tres but to make lots of small Flowers on a scene this technique is Fantastic, love the shoe you've color, don't know if you say basket shoe or something else i'm french and whe called these Baskets shoes, Big Hugs for your time to do this Awesome tutorial Claire! xx

[@crystalpierce9884]

Beautiful! Thankyou 😄

[@HillbillyTrash]

Your page is so beautiful!!!!! I'd rock those shoes any day lol I love how you do fabrics tho. That would be an amazing tutorial...how you would color a dress or curtains. Just fabric in general.

[@ColourwithClaire]

I have a fabric tutorial on here x

[@sarahstevenson6088]

Very cool and effective x

[@cassieepouncy4375]

thank you so much for this coloring leaves,trees,flowers etc etc is a MAJOR issue for me. i like to color them the color they in real life or close to as possible. have you done more videos like this?

[@ColourwithClaire]

I've done lots of tutorials, what are you looking for specifically?

[@beckyorstevejohnson7838]

I don’t have the colored Posca, but this technique is fantastic. It would be especially great in the Romantic Country books I think.

[@gata1887]

Hi Claire! Do you have a tutorial on how to do the background? I’m love to be able to do something like that!!!

[@ColourwithClaire]

It's just a blend like I showed on my recent blending video, I used Prismacolor Mediterranean Blue, Light Cerulean Blue, Greyed Lavender, Lavender, Hot Pink, Deco Pink & Deco Yellow

[@evelynfrith9297]

Colour with Claire ki

[@barbarathompson2314]

PERFECTON!! Wonderful to learn from you!! What medium did you use for the background?

[@ColourwithClaire]

Prismacolor pencils x

[@karenwilson9218]

Thank you! It takes me hours to do these in pencil and it isn’t as effective, so I’ve been avoiding pages with trees and shrubs!

[@donnabain9069]

Fabulous idea !! Looks amazing !! Do the paint pens bleed through ?

[@ColourwithClaire]

No!

[@Candy-xm5qs]

@@ColourwithClaire Bleed through was my question as well. Glad to hear they do not. Wonderful tut. Thank you.

[@cateyes3813]

Hi! This is a great video. Do you have a tutorial for just those... totally kind of outline only in the background? I'm finding it hard to find to separate them - it just looks like this big... undefined shape that I can't see where the breaks are for each tree, let alone do shading and highlights 💖

[@ColourwithClaire]

I don't, but I'd just try to create similar shapes if possible x

[@tammygeorge1638]

Omg! You wait until now to show us how you have been doing trees! 😂😂😂. JK! 😆😆😉. I absolutely love it! Yep! Time saving on a picture, I'm up for it! I want to know how you did the shoe? I absolutely love it! I had to order the book last night, I can't wait until they want to sell next month here. I went to the Book Depository! And ordered it! Lol. 😄 😄. I would really like and really appreciate it if you could do a quick video of how you did the shoe. It's stunning! Love the whole picture. Thanks for sharing! 😉 😉 💖

[@cath1866]

Amazing 😯❤

[@chartimberwolve6586]

How did you do the shoe? That's awesomeness!

Hello Claire, thank you for this video!! This will save so much time and wear on my hands!! ❤️ Did you use the 5M or the 7M size Posca in this tutorial?

5m xx

It was posted on my Facebook page. Amazon is selling them for $44.97. I have the 72 set and I also believe they can be bought open stock. Let the other Colorist know if decide to buy them with a introduction on your KZbin channel.
