Making a sketch of some scenery is going to be extremely beautiful because it would show how the artist would perceive a certain view of scenery. Now if one would really want to capture something on paper, then there would actually be ways on how to do so. With this step by step guide on how to draw, one will know the systematic way on how to go about.

Now the first step of the process would be to find out what the focus point of the portrait would be. Now if one is just a beginner at this, he should know that the focus point is the point of origin for the artist. In other words, this would be the point that the artist is looking straight at from his angle.

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.

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.

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.

So if the structures that are nearer to the corners are zoomed in, then the ones nearer to the focus point are the structures that are far from the artist. With this in mind, it is possible to draw in some sort of angle. So whenever one would sketch, scenery, he must take note of these principles.

Of course if one would want, then he may also add some shading to his drawing. Now if one would want to do so, then the trick here is to know where the light is coming from in the picture. Once one has already done that, he has to then shade the part that the light is not shining to.

So for those who would want to sketch a portrait of some scenery, here are some tips. Sketching is not as easy as most people think it is. It is actually systematic and requires a lot of techniques.
