Tree Research

I been doing some web research on trees to get some ideas for different styles that i could use in our film.I found this image on a blog. I think it interesting how the trees look like they're fading out at the bottom with the glow. This is an effect that we could use in the creation stage of the film.

I like the colours in these two images and also the paint is applied makes it look flowing and alive.

I like in this painting how there is the mix of the soft realistic textured paint and the sharp black lines that define the edges and branch joints of the tree. They are almost like toon lines, which we are very interested in incorporating into the films look.
