In today’s acrylic painting lesson we paint a landscape depicting a reflective river running beside a forest full of leaves and foliage. This relaxing painting tutorial is completed for the most part in real time and will cover the step by step process of how to paint trees, reflections, leaves and of course how to make it all look realistic. You can find the colors I used for this palette listed below in the description.
