Hi I'm Melody on behalf of Expert Village. I'm going to continue to showing you composition and how to start your drawing to finish an acrylic to finish an acrylic painting. I just want to show you the difference between these tree's and opening for the sky, the way the pre-painting this is an under painting. So when its being painted layers will go on top of it creating different colors, highlighted areas, depths, this is something that will be great for another time because right now were not that advance. This painting is a little bit different in that if you look at the top its base where the sky is, is very small compared to this one. And there's one more to look at, actually gives you even a better view of the sky. It's not only different color hew but it's also a different shape. Different amount exposed, and these are all choices that you make. This is your painting and you can change the water, or the trees, or any part of it that you want. If you want a bush, you put the bush and sooner or later you can learn which compositions really don't go with what really don't go with what really you want to go for. They wouldn't look natural they wouldn't be a bush necessarily growing the middle of something that you might of accidentally drawing into.
