LESSON NOTES

Start with the middle ground and draw a wiggly line for the bushes at the bottom of the fence. Then draw a guideline for the top of the fence. A third wiggly line makes the horizon with a line of distant treetops.

Draw a large "S" for the path. You will erase part of this later, so draw lightly. The path is wider at the bottom and narrower by the gate.

Draw the fence slats as thin rectangles standing in a row. Give them an edge; you can do this with a shadow on one side so they won't look flat.

The gate is open, so the lines get closer by the edge of the gate.

Using a louse scribbling technique, outline the tree behind the fence.

Add details to the fence like the cross beam, the hinges, and texture to the bushes at the bottom.

The bushes across the field are darker, so the fence is in light contrast.

The stone steps are bigger at the bottom of the picture and smaller at the top.

Use different textures on the tree trunk and on the leaves.

Add texture to the distant trees but keep it simple.

I hope you draw a masterpiece!
