Step 1.
Start by painting the foliage of the right half using Olive green.
Step 2
Continue working with the foliage. Note that some white areas are retained on the paper. Paint from top to bottom and from right to left.
Step 3
For the left shadow, add a little Hooker’s Green and Cadmium Orange to the previous mix.
Step 4
Finish off the dark left side wet on wet, and with a few small punctuated strokes that suggest small shadows between the leaves.
Step 5
Continue painting the trunk with Sepia
Step 6
Paint the shade of the trunk with a mixture of Burnt sienna and Sepia
Step 7
Paint the trunk and add some branches below the foliage.
Step 8
Paint some branches between the leaves all over the tree. Finish the job by perfecting the form of the leaves on the left; then, add small green spots all over the top of the tree to represent areas of light and shadow.
