How To Draw Scenery For Beginners

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.

First of all, one has to know the focus point of his scenery or the center point. For those who do not know what this is, this is basically the point of origin of the scene that one is going to sketch. One will also be basing all of the things that he will put in the drawing on this point of origin.

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.

Now after that, one can already sketch lightly the line where the horizon would be. For those who do not know what this is, basically this is the line that separates the land and the sky or in short, the horizon. Now this will at least give the artist an idea of where he should start drawing the sky and where to end drawing the land structures.

After all those lines, one may then add some of the structures like the people, the trees, the buildings, or the sun depending on what he would want to sketch. Now going back to the focus point, one has to make sure that everything near the focus point would be smaller than the structures near he corners. To put it simply, one should draw things smaller as he gets to the focus point. The principle behind this is that the structures nearer to the corners are zoomed in from the view of the artist.

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 as one can see, there is actually a very systematic way of drawing scenery. If one would follow these steps in creating a portrait, then he will find things to be so much easier. It would always be easier to start out rough first and then go on to the detailing later on.
