Also guys, I created a new youtube channel, where I will be posting easy and simple acrylic paintings, it would mean a lot if you can show your support and subscribe to me there: youtube.com/channel/UCCj5SEDODWGB3bjn37qsBVA

Materials:
Acrylic paint: Blue green iridescent by Pebeo, Violet blue by Pebeo and Phthalo blue by Omer DeSerres.

The brush I'm using to blend the background is from Omer DeSerres, it's a flat acrylic brush. I got it 6-7 years ago, so I don't think it's on the site anymore. The brushes I used to make the trees are from Lasten 19 Pcs Paint Brush Set from Amazon.
