Create a scenery using your imagination. Use a small brush and zooming to paint around the flower. You can also smudge a little bit from green to red and from red to green.

step 7 of 7

This is an easy way to create a tree. I used a fairly big brush for this example. The smaller the brush the more detail you can give the tree.
Start with a dark color to create the branches and the shadowed leaves. Then brush over the dark with green, a light yellow/orange and an almost white for the highlights.
