Landscape at Le Cannet

Lightly sketch the basic composition, focusing on the placement of the hills, buildings, and major tree masses.

Establish the sky with broad strokes, blending yellows, purples, and blues.

Block in the distant hills with muted blues and greens.

Begin adding the larger masses of buildings, using a mix of oranges, yellows, and blues to represent the roofs and walls.

Develop the foreground with greens and yellows, using broken color to create texture.

Add details to the buildings, such as windows and doors, using darker values.

Refine the foliage with short, broken brushstrokes, varying the colors to create depth.

Add final highlights and shadows to enhance the form and create a sense of light.
