LETʼS PAINT
Step 1: Use filbert brush with White, using a random motion to create a
fluffy look.
Step 2: Add Sand with filbert brush in just a small part over the white area. Lightly blend using the Sand color. Add branches with Asphaltum using small liner brush. Do not draw clean lines. Instead, draw irregular lines with unevenness. Relax your hand and don’t try to make perfect lines.
Step 3: Add highlight with White just here and there on Asphaltum area using the small liner brush.
