![]() ![]() I wouldn’t bother with individual leaves, just bunches work well. From each larger branch make the smaller ones come out in a V shape.įinish up the main branches, and erase the hills, mountains and bushes that the branches are blocking.Īdd bunches of leaves. You can erase the mountains behind the branches a bit later.Īdd several large branches. ![]() Begin indicating where the largest branches will be. Look on the lower left corner of the sketch above. I start by indicating the area where the roots meet the ground. Next comes the big tree in the foreground. To see how to draw a simple tree take a look at the picture below.Īdd another little roof of another house, and a few more trees to complete the town. Start the trees around the first house, as well as behind it. When working with colored pencils I find it easier to think about the small details ahead of time. Technically it’s more of a roof top then a house.Īdd the little church tower in the back, with a triangular roof on top. Then add the roof line extending over and running parallel to the ground. I start with a simple geometrical shape, a triangle, and two lines going down. Again, the bushes are just curly little shapes.īehind those bushes there is a house. Like behind the second hill in the picture above. And a little group of pine trees on the hill beyond.Īdd some bushes in the foreground. The hills you would be standing on if you were there looking out. It is time to erase the horizon line and replace it with some background hills, like in the photo above.Īlso, I thought my mountains were too small, so I drew bigger ones in the back, and will make the smaller mountains into a layer of large pine trees. The trees are far away and all they look like is wavy little hills. Draw a few mountains in the background.ĭraw little bunches of trees below the mountains. It will be erased and covered by hills later, so just a nice light line. Start by approximating where your horizon will be. These are the pencils I used for this project: PRISMACOLOR PENCILS (I love the extra large pack, but there are smaller size packs available) and this is the paper: Strathmore Vellum Bristol Paper Pad. This just gives you a general idea about how to draw a landscape, where you put trees, houses, hills, bushes and flowers in your picture is completely up to you! The most important thing is to have fun with it, and not give up. Also, please note that you absolutely should change things around.

I love how much control you have with a colored pencil. Color pencils have got to be one of my most favorite mediums. ![]()
