For your class project you'll design your own simple landscape picture using the skills we've learned in the lessons. If you have completed the small visual and practical tasks suggested at the end of the lessons, you will have the tools to tackle your project.

Materials.

You can use any medium you like to complete your picture. Painting, drawing or even in digital form if you prefer.
The medium you use is not important, what is important is correctly planning and executing your tonal values

To prepare for your project:

Look back at the little paintings I showed you in lesson 7, to give you an idea of how the tonal values can work for you
I have chosen two of these little pictures for you to download. You must be logged into Skillshare through your internet browser in order to see them listed. If you are using the Skillshare app on an iPad or other tablet you won't see them.
Copy these pictures if you like, this will help you to practice tonal values before you design your own simple picture.

When you feel ready, design and paint your own very simple landscape picture. First, do the picture in just one colour and any size you prefer. Then repeat the same picture using as many colours as you like. Use a computer or camera to turn both your paintings to black and white. Did you get your tonal values and aerial perspective correct?

Keep your little picture quite simple and try to include all, or most of the aspects of aerial perspective and tonal values you learned in the lessons.

Sharing:

Please upload your project to the Project and Resources section of the class, I can't wait to see what you create! Remember that everyone's project will be different and I am excited to see how you have interpreted what I have demonstrated. You can leave a review in the review section and comments in the discussion section. You can ask me questions and I will do my best to answer them as quickly as I can.

Enjoy your project!
