drawing mountain scenery

A landscape is an expanse of scenery that can be seen in a single view. Making a landscape drawing is almost a construction job on paper; all sketches are built, with different parts put together on paper.

Items needed for drawing a landscape include: pens, pencils, A4 drawing pad, a soft eraser to rub off mistakes, wherever you decide to turn out your masterpieces, whether in your kitchen or studio or anywhere, a drawing board is very useful.

Now its time to shade, simplicity is the key again. Near objects are fully cross hatched to give the impression of nearness while farther ones are lightly crosshatched to add depth and form to our drawing.

We are done with a picture. Now pick another landscape with trees and sketch again. This time suggest leaves on the trees by using distinct wavy lines. Dashes and dots are used to denote grasses and they fade as they move further away. Shade as instructed previously instructed. Shading with little practice should be done rapidly. To do it fast is better; it helps to cut down errors because there's no time to worry or doubt your ability. Your brain and hand just continues working. Be bold and confident, ignore minor mistakes, expect them and learn from them.
