Want to create your own original landscape through digital painting? If so, you're in the right spot. In this course I will show you my personal technique in creating environments from traditional to abstract. I'll be showing you multiple examples in real time and time lapse form!

A blank canvas can be very intimidating, however the technique I will show you, will allow you to create landscapes with an already established color palette and value scale. The process is supposed to be stress free and should be exciting to explore all the possibilities that are out there.

This course takes commitment, so as long as you pay close attention and don't give up, anyone can do this. Keep practicing and just like anything else, you'll find yourself getting better and better results. But don't get too caught up with the results, focus on enjoying the process and naturally your results will improve.

There are some things you will need in order to proceed (I go more in depth in the hardware video). You will need a drawing tablet of some kind, a mouse will not work. Tablets go anywhere from as low as 25$ to as high as thousands of dollars. You don't anything fancy, the tablet won't make you a better painter, only you can make yourself better.

Tablets:

Wacom Intuos Pro ($249)

Wacom Intuos ($75)

Cheap Huion Tablet ($25)

You'll also need Adobe Photoshop (Link), or a similar program. Now, since this is NOT a course on how to use Photoshop, I will explain some things however, I won't go deeply into detail about how to use the program

If you don't know a lot about Photoshop, I do have a course on how to use Photoshop for beginners. You can check that out if you'd like and then come back here. That will help you gain some familiarity so you can proceed in this course. I'll link this course below.
