I just finished Christine Nishiyama class on different "Art History" styles and wanted to experiment with them so, this was perfect. 

 

First, I started by sketching the painting in my sketchbook. I drew the cypress tree first as suggested to help keep scale. 

 

Then, I lightly erased the lines and started using light colors to block out sections. 

 

I made sure to use light-colored markers and slowly add darker colors to be safe. 

 

Lastly, I added some highlights with white acrylic paint! 

 

And, I think it turned out pretty good! Thanks for taking a look :D

 

Cheers!
