Using a general 'non-specific tree type' outline, this is continued practice of watercolor methods. I'm afraid I added too much dark paint in too similiar areas, but the practice was really very helpful. I find thinking in negative shapes to be a most difficult method used in watercolor. I have to work my mind around what I am SEEING to imagine what I'm NOT seeing.
I'll be practicing MORE of these to be sure!

I love your tree. Why too much dark. I think it looks quite natural that way with the sun shining down on it from above. Beautiful
Lin,
I am so impressed that you are methodically working on these skills and as a complete beginner myself can only say I LOVE your tree.
I love this tree Lin. I think it looks great as a winter tree.
Your roses are just gorgeous!!
Gorgeous and full of character - beautifully done!!
I think a couple of little gaps in the green might help to suggest light going through the leaves? That coming from me, who can't even sketch trees, it was something I heard on a watercolor programme. I agree with Sioux, it has a very natural look.
Hey VERY nice tree! well done.
