A Step By Step Guide On How To Draw Scenery

By Lisa Perry


Sketching a scenery like a forest or a small down is extremely fulfilling because it can give viewers a chance to see a normal everyday scenery at a whole new different light. Now if one would want to sketch this kind of drawing, there would be a systematic way to do it. One will learn how to draw with this guide for beginners.

Now the first step of the process would be to find out what the focus point of the portrait would be. Now if one is just a beginner at this, he should know that the focus point is the point of origin for the artist. In other words, this would be the point that the artist is looking straight at from his angle.

Now after one has already figured out what the focus point of his sketch is, then it would be best to put a dot on where the focus point is. Once one has drawn the little dot, then he should draw some lines that would emit from this point so that he knows where to place structures. Now one must remember to make sure the lines are all straight so that he will be able to properly place things in the drawing.

After that has been done already, then one must draw next the horizon line. Now if one is not familiar with what this horizon line is, basically it is a horizontal line that would separate the land and the sky. Now this is drawn to make sure that one will have a clearer picture as to where he would draw some of the structures that would seem further away.

Once all those lines have already been added, then one may already start drawing structures like buildings or some trees. The only thing that he has to remember that this focus point is where everything comes from with relation to the view of the artist. So if one would want to draw something near the focus point, he has to make sure it is small because it is not zoomed in. In a nutshell, one has to draw things smaller the closer he approaches this point.

Of course the biggest structures would be the ones that are farthest from the focus point. These would be the things that, from the point of view of the artist, are near him or zoomed in. So whenever one would create a scenery type of sketch, he has to remember these things.

Now in order to really make the sketch come to life, then it would be nice to add a little bit of shading. The one trick to doing this is to first make sure where the light would be coming from in the picture. Then the next thing to do is to shade the side that the light is not facing.

So for those who would want to sketch a portrait of some scenery, here are some tips. Sketching is not as easy as most people think it is. It is actually systematic and requires a lot of techniques.
