Hello my friends and welcome to another Tuesday of tutorial!
I am Leonardo Pereznieto and today I will draw a nightly landscape
which is something one of you requested
I hope you enjoyed it.
We will be working on toned paper, and we begin drawing with a dark gray.
With this we sketch the hills that are far away by the horizon
the top and the bottom
like so
and, more close by, another arm of land that extends onto the water.
Then, up here, the Moon. Notice that it is about at one third
of the page for composition purposes.
We do the outline with a white pencil and then we give it a tone.
Of course the tone is not solid and flat
but rather it has some changes
some areas are lighter than others even with a full Moon.
And we go back to the dark gray which in this case we apply
lightly to fill in the far away hills.
The one in front will be a little bit darker than the one in the back
which goes slightly lighter.
I’m using the same pencil, I’m just applying it with less pressure
with a lighter touch.
While for the closer land I switched to a black pencil
and I apply it with more pressure
and we can actually give it a couple of passes to darken it further
we want it to stand out.
The list of materials that I am using is in the description below the video.
We grab the white pencil again and with little dots we draw the reflections
many reflections, is like sparks in the water!
and then we illuminate slightly the sky with a halo of the Moon
and why not?
let’s draw some little clouds!
and remember that as they are also illuminated by the Moon, they should have
in light the side which is closer to it.
These reflections may not be enough let’s also draw some waves, some reffection
of the light of the Moon extended on the water.
Here I’m using a light gray because I don’t want the intensity of the
white
also to give it the darker areas of the Moon.
I remind you that right after the release of each video I am for one hour
