Trees are wonderful subjects to paint. Their unrefined organic makeup lends towards lots of added texture. Let's take a look at how we can create very realistic texture in our tree paintings, from bark to leaves. The secret to painting authentic looking trees lies in the understanding of the underlying structure of trees. To observe is to know your subject. Compile a folder and use it to store your images of trees.

In this tutorial, we will show you a simple watercolor effect. This is a technique whereby you build up value via the opacity sliders and by working on separate watercolor layers. You will need a photo to work from. In staying with the autumn theme, use an image of trees in high color or other images of the season. Let's get started painting the season and all its color and vibrancy, for it soon will be gone for another year.

This tutorial will walk you thru the vector tools in Paint Shop Pro to design some unique and creative lettering using two, three or even more colors for each letter of the word. Of course you can create words where each letter is a different color by entering one letter at a time, but there's a much easier and faster way! Using PSP's vector tools, we can change the color of each character within a word or add a pattern fill to just one letter. We can also change size, shape and alignment.
