The Method of Drawing Trees
Drawing trees is the first step in learning to paint landscapes. This first step must not be taken lightly or superficially. Because,
Trees are not only indispensable elements in landscape painting but also a necessary starting point for practicing brushwork and ink application. They must never be overlooked. There are various types of trees, such as dead trees, willows, and so on. Among them, there are also shrubs or forests. Here, we introduce several common methods for painting trees. The main goal is to strive for diverse brushstrokes, with both firm and soft lines. Firm lines represent old branches, while soft lines represent new ones. The brushwork and ink application should also vary, with both thick and thin shades. According to the unique characteristics of each tree, when beginning to practice, one should first learn to paint the main trunk and then the branches. Use burnt ink and light ink to distinguish the front and back, and pay special attention to the changes in the curving, stretching, and interweaving of the branches. During the process of painting, it is particularly important to pay attention to the most sensitive pauses and flicks of the brush. Gracefulness best demonstrates one's skill. When painting, first determine the shape of the main trunk, then the branches and twigs, to ensure the overall form of the tree.

When painting the main trunk and branches, pay special attention to the initial strokes to convey the texture of the tree. The arrangement should be sparse and dense in a balanced way, with a combination of clustering and scattering. Sometimes, when the main trunk is relatively curved, the young trees, branches, and twigs can be drawn slightly straighter, while the old branches can be made more curved. The texture on the bark should be applied with ink according to whether the tree is old or young. These methods are generally used for close-up scenes. For medium and distant views, they can be simplified. For shrubs or distant forests, the painting should be relatively simple and less detailed. By the way, the method for painting branches is usually the crab-claw branch or the antler branch. This depends on the needs of the painting. The crab-claw branch is a downward-hanging branch, while the antler branch is an upward-growing one. Both should be used alternately on the same tree, but with a difference in quantity. The method for painting forests: beginners should start with a few trees and gradually increase the number. Do not make the branches too dense and chaotic. Start with two or three trees and then add one by one, gradually increasing the number in the front, back, left, and right. However, it is particularly important to note that the variation in the forest should not be too much; otherwise, it will become chaotic. There should be a distinction between thick and thin, with changes, but also be sparse and orderly, with a mix of tall and short, large and small, and clear distinction between near and far. When painting, the branches should extend naturally, with appropriate dry and wet brushwork and ink application, and variations. In terms of composition, the structure should be rigorous and harmonious with other elements in the painting. The method for painting willows: for the branches of willows, use a sharp brush tip and dry ink, starting from the top and going down, with a transition from thick to thin ink, and a gradual weakening of force. There should be both real and illusory elements, and the branches should naturally droop. The most important thing is to observe and sketch in nature to grasp the law of branch growth, so that the skill can be demonstrated in the painting.
