Hi. Welcome! I\u2019m going to do a quick and fun sketch of a mountain landscape so if you\u2019d like you can go ahead and draw along with me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s get started. I\u2019m going to start by just drawing in a basic sketch of this mountain, kind of a silhouette. So there are all these layers within the mountains there\u2019s a mountain in the back and more more layers of mountains as they come forward and into the foreground. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now I\u2019m going to start doing a little bit of shading so I\u2019m going to turn my pencil onto the side and push down. And I\u2019ll push down harder if I want really dark shadows. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Starting over here I\u2019m going to draw in some of these rocks. I\u2019m leaving the paper, the bright areas, paper white and those areas are actually the snow. So what I\u2019m actually drawing in are these craggy black and gray rocks peeking out of the snow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another really great thing to do is to make my shadows follow the same contours as the lines of my mountains. If my mountain dips down like that I can make my shadows dip down like that, it helps add structure and helps define the shapes of the mountains just a little bit better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here is a really nice dark shadow here on the side of this peek. Then as the foreground gets closer to us here these areas are going to be darker so I\u2019m going to darken in these areas quite a bit. This hill here is really pretty dark also. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now as I am also darkening in these areas you can really start to see the layers of the mountain coming so you are starting to get more sense of depth, more sense of three dimensionality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Add one more little peek there to the mountain. Add a few shadows in on it. And a few more craggy rocks peeking out behind here. And off in the distance this area is going be be really light, that\u2019s even another mountain that we are seeing off in the distance beyond. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following the contour of these mountain shapes. And just a few last little details. Alright, so here is our finished mountain landscape. I hope you had a great time practicing. Thanks for watching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
