Landscape Techniques Vol. 1

Do you want to paint better landscapes, improve your artistic instincts, or nail down a “style” distinctly your own? What if there was a way to get consistent, quality results with your art with less stress using reliable methods?

Have you ever said to yourself “I’d love to get better at painting backgrounds for my characters”? Want to go to the next level with your art, or add a few new tools to your artistic toolbox? Then this course is for you!

In this over FIVE HOUR video course, you will learn basic, repeatable steps that will take your art to new heights. While we will be creating a landscape painting from beginning-to-end (blank canvas to final signature), this method may change the way you approach EVERY painting, no matter the topic.

You will follow along in split lessons (part lecture, part real-time painting) as we go from idea to final of a landscape painting. You’ll learn how to understand your creative process by using shapes to block out your ideas, tips for applying proper values to your work, hitting the right moods with various color passes, and pro-level techniques to finish off your paintings with style! 

During this video course, you will:

• Start creating ideas that have your imagination, or client’s requests, at the forefront
• Learn to use basic shapes to compose your image
• Nail down your values for your concept
• Embrace color theory in ways that make logical sense for your art
• Understand proper ways to utilize reference images and lived experiences to bring ideas to life faster
• Learn tricks on how to use texture to give your work personality
• Master edge control and know when (and how) to use specific edges
• Follow the rules of how the eye works to emphasize focal points

Whether you’re a beginner, enthusiast, or professional artist, there should be some “hidden gems” in this course that will help you skyrocket your art abilities, quickly and reliably! As part of this course, you’ll also get a free brush pack, example files from select lessons, and lecture notes with quick tips to reference whenever you like during your art journey!

Feel free to follow along during the course, making your own landscape painting from scratch, and see just how easy it is to implement these steps to make your visions become reality.

Let’s get painting, I’ll see you in class!
