Hi! Im starting out an illustration - basically its a hunter gatherer picking berries or fruit from a large bush. Ive never really painted a bush in this context before (as in part of a main focus) and im not sure the best way to go about it. I want the main focus on the dudes hands and around the fruit hes picking - so where do i focus my detail work on the bush/leaves? just the main area around the fruit? maybe anything in the beam of light? how do i paint this in a believable manner and not have a big green clump with awkward repetitive leaves coming out of it.
