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 once one has already figured out his point of origin, he should mark the point of origin with a tiny dot so that he knows where it is. After that, he should light draw lines emitting from the point of origin so that he knows where to put things. One has to remember that the lines here have to be straight so that he will not have a hard time which is why it would be better to have a ruler on him.

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.

From there, one may already start adding things like trees, caves, or buildings, depending on what he wants to sketch. Now first of all, one has to remember that the focus point is the point of origin meaning that the view of the artist would be directed at that point. So everything that he would draw would have to be small if it is near the focus point. Basically his figures and structures would have to shrink the closer he gets to the point of origin.

Now the biggest structures are the ones nearest to the corner as they are far from the origin point. For those who are curious as to why, it is because it is at those points that things are zoomed in. So whenever one sketches some scenery, those are some of the things he has to remember.

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.
