In part three we start to add detail to the squirrel. Here direction and value are very important techniques we learn.
In part four we start to block in the eastern pine tree. Using wet on wet blends we prepare the area and establish the play of light and shadow.
In part five we break up the blended areas of the tree and start to create the elaborate cracking and bark textures of the tree.
With our initial break up of the trees bark done we concentrate of detailing the bark paying specific attention to the 'light modeling' of texture.
