Fruit Trees

Sketch the basic composition, focusing on the horizon line and the placement of major elements like the trees and hills.

Establish the sky with a thin wash of muted yellow and white, allowing some canvas to show through.

Block in the distant hills with a mix of ochre, burnt sienna, and a touch of blue to create a hazy effect.

Paint the foreground with a base layer of green, varying the tone with touches of brown and yellow.

Add the fence using thin lines of brown and grey, paying attention to perspective.

Paint the trees with a combination of dry brush strokes and small dabs of color to create texture.

Add highlights to the trees and grass with lighter shades of yellow and green.

Refine details and adjust values to create a sense of depth and atmosphere.
