By Kevin Brooks


Painting is one of the most enjoyable activities to do for the people who have the passion for it. So many forms of painting are present thus each artist has his/her style, but the end product is always eye-catching. Large scale abstract landscape drawing is one of the mastery arts, and the painter goes through a series of steps to bring out an image that leaves the viewer with an exquisite mood. If you are a beginner and would like to train how to paint in this particular form, you must be ready to concentrate and repeat the painting several times before it becomes just as you want.

There are a series of steps that should be followed when this kind of painting is carried out. Before beginning the activity, it is advisable to have scenery that you are interested in then work out this scenery with photos, sketches and studies before starting the main painting. This is simply because some mistakes in small sketches can be overlooked, but small mistakes in bigger paintings cannot be ignored.

Then, one must know what he/she wants to say about the layout then divide the canvas into simplified sections according to the kind of painting that he intends to do. Then, use dark abstruse shapes to paint the masses with four value planes that are basic.

Ensure that the source of light which is the sky is the lightest. Then, the ground plane which reflects the sky becomes the second lightest. The slanted planes that include slanted rocks, hills and mountains among others get less light while the upright planes like trees and buildings get the lowest amount of light that falls directly on them.

Defining the features is usually the next thing, and the right shading is used. As an instance, trees should always appear to have rich dark-green bottoms and light-green tips. When you start mixing the colors for painting adding them on the palette make the whole activity way easier and faster.

Depending on the kind of painting you are making, use the palette knife to scrub or scrape the painting and deconstruct as frequently as possible. This will sketch to be soft and simple and have edges that are hard at the focal point. Always use bigger brushes from start to finish so that you do not poke the portrait.

After that, you should start working colors all over the painting and define it more. The main aim at this stage is to try and make the painting look more opaque and concentrate on values. The paint application is thickened, but it should be scraped off so as soften the edges then add more paint on the scraped areas.

At the final stages, you should use the smaller flat brushes as well as palette knives so that you add on the details. After refining the images, intensifying focal points as well as pushing the portrait thickness, hard edges, contrast and value, you should let it dry. After it has completely dried, start glazing and sand it to make it more exquisite.
