I demonstrate how draw the landmarks, how to paint sky strata, how to paint distant trees, how to paint land banks, how to paint the grass in the field, and how painting the tree in three easy steps. Day Two I demonstrate how to tweak the pasture, the trees, and the tree trunks to make the darks darker and the lights lighter to show visual interest.
