Spring Wildflowers & Song Bird on Old Fence Post | Jerry Yarnell Acrylic Painting

If you love old country fence posts, rusty wire, wildflowers, and song birds, this Jerry Yarnell PBS lesson is for you. In “Spring Song” (Episode 9947) from the Jerry Yarnell School of Fine Art, Jerry shows you how to:

Underpaint and block in a vertical spring composition

Turn simple colors into a realistic, weathered fence post

Mix a clean, rich “black” using ultramarine blue, burnt sienna, and purple

Paint twisted barbed wire—wraps, barbs, and splices that look believable

Use baby’s-breath splatter and soft accents for a natural wildflower field

Place flowers, vines, and a small bird to complete a balanced composition

You’ll learn real fine art techniques Jerry used in his workshops and PBS shows: brush handling, dry brushing, accenting with light, and using weeds and “weedy shapes” as beautiful design elements.
