Tools for painting the landscape "summer. Road in the field":
1. Brushes of different sizes 2-3 pcs. (preferably natural) dark gray and white acrylic is required;
2. Take acrylic paints: at least 12 colors or these beautiful shades.
3. A gray pencil (sharp and soft) and an eraser (preferably elongated);
4. Cardboard (gray, which is suitable for the background while working in this greenish-yellow gamut) or a wooden board that can be varnished when the work is ready;
5. The factory palette has a convenient shape, you can take a wide plastic cover or a wooden plank. Breeding paints on the palette, it is easier to get the necessary realistic shade. Following the steps in detail, drawing such a multi-component landscape is easy and simple. Direct the lighting to the workplace, but do not overdo it; otherwise, blinding lamps will distort the perception of the light of colors, and there will be a risk that the landscape will be too dark in natural daylight. Prepare a container of water for washing brushes, napkins or a cloth for wiping hands, cotton wool can be useful for dry correction in the process of drawing a picture.
We start work with a pencil sketch, if you have a cardboard press harder. Draw under the ruler or visual fitting “two horizons” - one in the foreground and the second in the farthest. The main details are the arches of the road and the hill.
Large tree trunks on the left, silhouette of a forest belt.
In the background is a view of the reservoir and raspberry clouds. You can paint them in more detail, as it will be easier to repeat small details with a brush if there are contours with a pencil.
Now we proceed to the "colorful stage", which will take much more time. We start with ocher and warm yellow hues.
In distant fields light haze prevails, we add white to the yellow paint.
Apply a thick layer of paint, the tree in the upper right corner can be indicated with ocher.
Now it's time to mix gray and green, the brush is thicker - 8.
Lighter greens are grass and distant trees.
Now we pay attention to the details and take thin brushes.
The road is white, gray, lilac (red with blue). The sky, the pond - a lot of white and blue, a little yellow and red. We wait a day until the paint dries, or you can dry it with a cold hairdryer. Recent details: reflections in the river, brown tree trunks, colorful grasses. Such landscapes are very fond of being in a wooden frame.
