![](https://images.ecency.com/DQma5gkgANWPGSLzqXppN59knUtdDHK8s32bWpPqz28TRNQ/img_20240130_120524.jpg)Greetings Hiver friends, How are you doing? A blessed day to everyone! Welcome to my art blog. I haven't been able to paint using acrylic paint for a long time. So today I decided to paint an easy autumn lake using acrylic medium.  This is suitable for beginners because the subject is easy to paint. In this post, I will show you the step-by-step process of how to paint this scenery. 

An Autumn lake scenery is a view to behold. It's a scenery with its wonderful hues. The autumn lake scenery is frequently accompanied by a sense of solitude and tranquility, It's an ideal place to find serenity. This is a great moment to experience the beauty of the season.

For this part, I use three colors, blue then green, and white. Since this is a distant object it does not require many details. I used two brushes, flat and filbert brush.

For the lake, you just use a small amount of blue and then more white paint. You can put some reflections of the mountain to make it naturalistic. You can use a flat brush.

You can use black and a small amount of burnt sienna for the tree trunks,  the brush that I used is a Filbert brush, and you can use also a round brush and, for the tree limbs is a liner brush. 
The color paint of the leaves of the tree is brilliant red, lemon yellow, and some. White. The brush that you can use here is a Filbert brush. 
Then, add details to come alive in your painting. I used a liner brush for thin details.
