2. Buildings

Buildings are great to paint, especially as they have so many textures in them.
I'll show you how to paint a few of these here.

Brick

Bricks have a rough texture and the older they are the more worn and cracked they can become. They make a fascinating study just on their own.  I'll show you a simple method of painting bricks in just four stages.

Stone

The stones in stone walls can be very varied in color, size and shape and therefore they make a great subject to paint. Paint along with me as I show you how to paint interesting stone walls.

Let’s now paint a picture which includes both bricks and stones, using the techniques we have learned.

Wood

​Here are two great ways of painting wood. Try them both out and see which you prefer – or use techniques from both of them to create your own wood texture. 
I'll show you how to use spattering, scraping in and drybrush to create the texture of old painted wood.

Rust

​A rusty roof can really enhance a painting, and here we will paint a little scene of a couple of barns with rust on the roof and doors to show you how it is done.
