Learn The Modern Art Of Painting The Tree Of Life
Your first glowing tree in under 3 hours, even if you've never held a brush.
Imagine if you could:
create one-of-a-kind tree of life paintings using a simple layering method that produces pieces so vivid they look like they belong in a gallery.
transform a blank canvas into a towering, glowing tree that you can frame, hang on your wall, or gift to someone who needs a little more life on theirs.
have a calming, meditative creative hobby that takes you offline and into a world of swirling skies, brushstrokes, and quiet focus.
paint handmade pieces that cost under $5 in materials but look like they came straight from an art fair booth.
You might be thinking this is extremely hard.
A towering tree seen from below, with glowing leaves and a sky that swirls like a Van Gogh? It sounds like something only trained artists or illustrators can pull off.
But what if I told you that you don't need artistic talent, expensive equipment, or any prior experience?
Here's what most people don't realize.
The most striking tree of life paintings are built from the simplest layers.
A canvas panel, five tubes of paint, and a round brush. $30 of materials. That's all it takes to paint a tree that feels alive.
As long as the layers go down in the right order and the colors are mixed correctly, the canvas reveals the tree for you.
You swirl in the sky. You pull the trunk upward. You dab on the glowing leaves. And suddenly, you're standing under a living tree.
"Will my tree of life look as stunning as yours, even if I'm not artistic?"
Yes.
You're not sketching or copying leaf by leaf. The layers create the tree. You just follow the order: sky, trunk, canopy, light.
If you can trace a shape and fill it in, you can do this.
This course teaches you the three things that matter:
how you mix your colors, how you layer them, and how you shape the trunk.
Anyone can paint a tree of life.
→ Even if you've never held a brush. A clear step-by-step method that works with basic materials and zero experience.
→ Even if you think painting is too complex. It's not. You just never had the right teacher.
→ Even if every craft you've tried ended in frustration. Acrylics are forgiving by nature. If a layer goes wrong, you let it dry and paint right over it.
→ Even if you don't consider yourself "artistic." A few tubes of paint, a brush, a canvas panel, and a little patience. That's it.
The Philosophy Behind the Practice
Behind these luminous trees sit four Japanese principles that quietly change how you see creativity, nature, and yourself.
No two trees you paint will ever be the same. That's not a limitation. That's the entire point.
The bent branches, the visible brushstrokes, the leaves that landed where they wanted. These aren't flaws. They're what give your tree its life.
Your hand takes over. Your mind gets quiet. The stroke is the practice. The painting is just the reward.
Just you, brush, and paint. Every tree you paint holds a part of you in it.
My name is Aiko Mori.
15+ years of painting and teaching. I spent my first decade in black ink (sumi-e pines, hanging scrolls, gallery pieces) before color pulled me in. Then one afternoon I lay down under an old oak, looked straight up, and saw the sky swirling between the branches like a living Van Gogh. I've been painting trees from the roots up ever since.
Over 200 original tree paintings created. Taught 500+ students in workshops across three countries to paint their first tree of life from scratch.
I picked up acrylics wanting to paint what ink couldn't say: a trunk soaring into a glowing canopy, stars caught between the leaves, a sky that moves. Within a week I was painting trees on every canvas in my house. That obsession never left. I just learned to channel it.

From blank canvas to a tree that feels alive.
2+ hours of step-by-step videos across 15+ lessons
✦ What's Inside ✦
The Living Canvas (Where The Tree Of Life Comes From)
- ✦ Why acrylics are the perfect first paint: fast-drying, water-based, and endlessly correctable
- ✦ Why a tree is the perfect subject for acrylics: a bold trunk silhouette and a loose, forgiving canopy that stays striking even when your brushwork is rough
- ✦ The looking-up perspective: why painting a tree from its roots to the sky makes even a beginner piece feel monumental
- ✦ How to read and understand a tree of life composition (trunk, canopy, sky vortex) so you can design your own
Your Acrylic Toolkit (Materials & Setup)
- ✦ The $30 shopping list with exact product links that gives you everything you need for your first 10+ tree paintings
- ✦ The best brushes for beginners and why one round brush and one flat brush are your secret weapons
- ✦ Student-grade vs artist-grade paint: which tubes to start with and why
- ✦ How to set up your painting station at any desk or kitchen table in 10 minutes
Swirling Skies & Color Effects
- ✦ How to mix rich, glowing colors from just five tubes (and how to never end up with mud)
- ✦ The swirl stroke: the simple wrist motion behind those hypnotic, Van Gogh style skies
- ✦ Wet vs dry brush: how to control soft blends, crisp edges, and streaming, wind-blown texture
- ✦ Color effects: spiral skies, starry speckles, and glowing halos that bring your canvas to life
The Tree Of Life (Trunk & Canopy)
- ✦ The towering trunk: the foundational looking-up tree you learn first and return to again and again
- ✦ The trunk in a few simple shapes: how to make it lean, twist, and taper into the sky without sketching or outlining it
- ✦ Bark that feels ancient: the dry-brush strokes that turn a flat brown shape into gnarled, weathered wood
- ✦ The dabbed canopy: how loose clusters of leaf marks read as a living crown (no leaf-by-leaf painting, ever)
Bringing The Tree To Life (Light & Composition)
- ✦ The glow through the leaves: the backlit canopy effect that makes your tree look lit from within
- ✦ Mood and season: the same tree as a moonlit night, an autumn evening, or a bright summer noon, just by shifting the palette
- ✦ Dreamy skies: full moons, star fields, spiral nebulas, and drifting clouds behind your branches
- ✦ Telling a little story: composing trunk, canopy, and sky vortex so the piece feels alive, not posed
You've seen what's inside. Five modules. A complete system for learning, painting, and mastering the tree of life at home.
The full price for this course is $97.
You're not going to pay that today. And the reason is simple.
This is the first time I've offered this course to the public. I want 50 people to go through it. I want to read your emails, see your trees, find out where you get stuck and where you surprise yourself.
That feedback is worth more to me right now than charging full price. Honestly, I also need to find out if I can handle 50 support inboxes without accidentally spilling paint water on my laptop.
So for this first group, the price is dramatically lower. Once those 50 spots fill, this page comes down and the full price goes live.

Students Usually Ask
None at all. This course is built for complete beginners, including people who've never held a paintbrush. Module 1 starts with the fundamentals of acrylic painting and walks you through your very first tree step by step.
Under $30 total. A beginner set of acrylic paints ($10 to $15), a small pack of brushes ($8 to $12), and a few canvas panels ($5 to $10). The course includes a complete shopping guide with links. You do NOT need expensive specialty supplies.
Yes. Module 2 walks you through exactly which materials to start with based on the trees you want to paint first. It also includes a shopping guide with specific links so you know exactly where to buy everything and what to avoid.
Everything you need costs under $30. A basic starter kit includes: five tubes of acrylic paint, a round brush, a flat brush, a canvas panel, and a cup of water. Module 2 covers exactly what to buy and where.
Absolutely. All you need is a desk or kitchen table, a small mat, and a cup of water. No studio, no workshop, no special equipment. Acrylics are water-based, so there are no fumes and cleanup takes two minutes. Most of our students paint at their kitchen table.
Yes. Acrylic paint is the most widely available art supply in the world. Every craft store, art shop, and online retailer carries it, and canvas panels and brushes ship internationally. The course covers alternatives for hard-to-find items.
Your first tree of life takes about 1 to 2 hours from setup to finished. Swirling in the sky takes 20 to 30 minutes, the trunk and canopy take 30 to 40 minutes, and the glowing details plus signing take another 15. Acrylics dry in minutes, so you finish the whole painting in one sitting.
Your very first tree will have that luminous, swirling look. That happens in a single afternoon. The beauty comes from the layering method, not years of practice. The initial "wow" moment is immediate. Every painting after that just gets more refined.
Painting a tree of life is fundamentally different from realistic drawing. The tree is built from simple shapes and layers, not detailed sketching. If you can trace a shape and fill it in, you can paint a stunning tree of life. The method does the artistry for you.
This is the best part about acrylics: nothing is ever ruined. If a layer goes wrong, you let it dry (a few minutes) and paint right over it. The course covers every common mistake so you can fix almost any issue on the spot. And with canvas panels costing a couple of dollars, a learning experience is never a disaster.
90-day money-back guarantee. Try the entire course. Get your materials. Paint your first piece. If you don't love it, email us within 90 days and we'll refund you in full. No questions asked. No hoops.
Instant access to our private course platform. All video lessons and downloadable PDFs organized by module. Watch on any device: phone, tablet, or computer. Lifetime access, so go at your own pace. There's no schedule and no expiration.
Yes. Payments are processed through Stripe, the same secure payment platform used by millions of businesses worldwide (including Amazon, Google, and Shopify). We never see your card details.
No. Standard acrylic paints are water-based and non-toxic, with no solvents or fumes involved. If you get paint on your hands, it washes off with soap and water. The course recommends a small mat under your work to keep things clean, but the materials themselves are completely beginner-safe.
