In 5 minutes you can create your own sketch of a mountain. Keep practicing your drawing skills. Chances are you will improve with time and practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can start and stop the video as you sketch along at your own pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whenever I travel through the mountains I gaze out at them. I imagine the different viewpoints and different compositions that I could create.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The materials needed for this lesson are very simple, you probably have them on hand already:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Pencil <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Paper (Drawing paper is best but you can use whatever you have available. I am using a 5.5 x 8.5 inch spiral bound sketchbook with 60lb paper)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Art Lesson<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Begin by roughly sketching in the outline of the mountain. It is helpful to look at an actual picture of a mountain if you are not drawing along with the video.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Then add some dark values. Turn your pencil on the side and push down from the top to add a lot of value quickly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Determine where the whites and lights values will be. Leave these the color of the paper. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Lastly go back through the entire drawing to add more detail and fine tune your image. Add more darks as needed. You can also erase any lines that seem out of place <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Look at your drawing overall. Is it believable and fairly accurate? Is there enough contrast (difference between lights and darks)? Is there enough detail with out adding too much?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Try adding in plants, trees, people, or rustic shacks into to your mountain scene. Place these additions in background further away with a light sketchy quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If you place them in the foreground you will want to add more detail. Look at a picture for reference of what you are actually drawing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Drawing a mountain seen from your own photo is another great way to practice your drawing skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      You could also challenge yourself by using a different drawing material such as pen and ink or even charcoal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Tips and tricks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Turn your pencil on the side and push from the top to shade a lot of area quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Create a sense of 3 dimension by including some very dark values. Add these in the foreground and closer to the viewer. Dark values will come toward the audience while light values will appear to be further away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
