exists in the serene beauty of
humungous mountains, the
blueness of oceans, the

calmness of trees.
If you are an artist, you know I am
talking about landscape art.
Introduction
3. Whenever an exquisite landscape painting is being crafted, it is
the absolute creativity and the emotion of an artist that is
displayed in the colours and strokes of the brush.
How many times have you thought to craft a landscape painting
and have dropped the idea? It happens as being an artist you
would want something that would be perfect and nothing less
than that.
In the preceding slides, I will offer you few steps that would help
you in creating an alluring landscape painting. Let’s start:
4. One big mistake that quite a few artists (mainly the newbies) do
is that they try to imitate everything that is visible in the
landscape.
I would suggest you be creative and original while you are trying
to carve out emotions in the landscape painting.
Not everything is needed in the art
5. There is no strict rule that everything needs to be included. Use
your feelings, emotions, and instincts to grab only the strong
elements of the landscape.
An artist is not meant to act like a photographer, instead, an
artist develops his/her own imagination seeing the landscape.
6. As an artist, you should always think like no one does.
If you witness a landscape, and you think some elements need
rearrangement, do it!
Use your instincts
7. The greats of landscape paintings are known to utilise their
own imagination to produce some of the majestic pieces of
art of all time.
You are meant to capture the essence of a landscape rather
than the exact imitation.
8. Remember, as an artist, you have to take care of the little
things in the painting.
For instance, while carving a mesmerizing landscape painting,
always make sure to give more emphasis to the foreground.
Set preference
9. Let’s say if you put your best efforts on the background of
the artwork, then the true significance that lies in the
landscape painting will be lost.
The foreground is the area where an artist infuses all his/her
imagination and emotion creatively.
Hence, setting priorities with respect to the foreground can
really uplift the beauty of your artwork.
10. In the art world, it is being assumed or rumoured as a fraud if
you buy green colour instead of making it yourself.
This is just not true.
Even If you are purchasing the green colour, it is perfectly ok to
use those. Your painting will be equally legit and deserving as
the artwork made with blended colour.
Off-the-rack green paints are ok to buy
11. The colour green has a high significance in the auspicious
landscape paintings.
In the market, you can find numerous shades of green.
As an artist, always be sure of what sort of green you are
supposed to utilize in your landscape painting.
Get to know the blending process
12. It depends on what time of day you are depicting and the
sunlight that is present. Somehow, the green in landscape
paintings is more of either yellow or blue.
You can mix up blue and yellow in varying proportions to
get variegated shades of green.
The more you mix, the more shade and intense your green
will become, which, in turn, offers a rarity and charm in
your painting.
13. Never leave this amazing art form by just producing one
exquisite landscape painting.
Instead, what you can do is you can follow the footstep of
one of the greats of Landscape art form i.e. Claude Monet.
Paint repeatedly and utilise varied shades, lights, effects,
patterns, and moods in the paintings.
