How to draw a sunset field
Reference by Aliona
The picture
The lesson
Draw the horizon line
The jagged treeline and the field's edge — nothing else yet.
Add the composition guides
Light cloud direction lines above, field flow lines below.
Block in clouds and flowers
Long cloud bands, round flower heads scattered over the field.
Detail the whole scene
Cloud edges, petals, grass blades — keep the pencil light.
Commit the clean line
Erase the guides; tighten clouds, treeline and every flower.
Colour the sky first
Pink, coral and violet cloud bands — the field stays pencil.
Fill the field with colour
Dark treeline, green grass, orange and white blooms — all flat.
Render the impasto finish
Thick paint strokes, violet accents, deeper shadows in the grass.
