This adorable and very detailed Fall Birdhouse painting tutorial is our “Bonus Members Exclusive” for October 2024! There is an optional traceable template in there too! The video is a little over an hour long so I recommend you break the painting down into at least 2 sessions. Enjoy and happy painting!!
We will be painting “Country Road Dreams” using only 5 colors (the primary colors plus black and white). There will be a lot of mixing color techniques in this lesson! A traceable for the windmill will be provided so you do not have to draw it.
This tutorial includes an optional traceable! I also encourage you to do something creative with the background. There are a few ideas below that members have done!
We will be painting a whimsical scene with wishing well, willow tree branches, fireflies and flowers. There is also a little blue bird perched on the top of the well. Customize this painting with different types of birds, add butterflies or fireflies. You can also change the colors of the flowers and the vines in this!
The tutorial comes with a traceable template and I do use the template in the demonstration. The well design is a little elaborate with the cobblestone, so the template is super helpful!
Level: Medium (The painting itself isn’t too difficult, there are a bit of details in this but the painting can be simplified). Various techniques that may be challenging include: grass painting, faux wood painting & tree branch painting.
“Fresh Cut Flowers” is our bonus tutorial for April! This tutorial has a 55 minute instructional video & optional traceable template. This is a painting you can customize! Change the color of the background and wording on the box.
