I must say, this is the third year I've done this tutorial in preparation for painting Halloween items! I love ALL your videos too.

Very effective use of the plastic wrap. I love using it! Perfect Halloween forest😊

Wow, that background is just spectacular. My mind is awhirl with ideas! Thank you.

[@marigoldwood8494]

Am I the only one who can see some spooky ghosts emerging from the ground? Love the cling film technique.

That’s a very Halloweeny painting !! 👍🤗 great idea with the cling film 😊 thanks 😷

[@brucewagner4394]

That's awesome I love this painting. And the reference of Bob Ross. Belive it or not the second you started putting down the big tree and before you said his name,I was already thinking of him. Lol that was awesome. He was a great artist. Imo

[@iocalatubo412]

Enjoyed this very much! I don’t think I’d have the artistic ability to just construct a setting like this from my mind’s eye the way I watched you do it! Very nice!

[@stanroberts7005]

You explain thing so perfectly you are definitely an inspiration to want to have a go keep up the good work 👍

Nice texture effect with the plastic 👍

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks! I've just spent a month looking at special effects on Patreon, they've been sharing their work in our Private Patreon Facebook group and a lot of them are getting amazing results from salt, soal, alcohol, plastic wrap etc!

[@Jamquiltsmorgan]

Love the video, 😊👌 can I ask what size was the squirrel mop brush you used for the larger tree . . 🖌

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks, I'm not sure of the size, as the details have worn off the brush but I think about a size 3, quite a small one

[@mipoko.kovalsky]

[@toekan99ambar]

😍😍😍👍👍👍👍

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks!

[@toekan99ambar]

@@LoisDavidsonArt most welcome

[@marjo-riittareinikainen9740]

How long time it might take the paper is dry under the plastic? I have newer used plastic wrap in watercolor painting?

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

It depends on the temperature in the room, if hot about 20 minutes or so, if colder weather maybe an hour. You can carefully lift a corner and check every now and again!

[@philipdown3147]

Where's the bats flying in from the distance? Hehe

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

They are just out of frame ;-)
