One method is to use round # 8 or 10 with good point. Wet paper and wait until the shine is beginning to dull, then start at top of tree. Just touch tip of brush in a vertical line 1/2 or 1" down, touch a few points in almost horizontal lines across bottom of first vertical. Make the 'branches' irregularly spaced and longer as you go down the tree, then go back and paint in the trunk and some shorter branches.. They should not come off the 'trunk' opposite each other. At the proper wetness the paint should 'bleed' so it looks like pine needles. Hope this makes sense....Hard to describe in words.....Good luck- and practice! | ||

I usually paint pine trees with a 1" flat series 996 Winsor and Newton brush. I usually paint everything with a 1" brush. I just own every brush that's ever been invented... -best wishes Carrie | ||
