Lightly sketch the basic shapes and composition, focusing on the horizon line and major elements.

Outline the main figures and buildings, paying attention to their proportions and placement.

Begin adding details to the figures, such as clothing folds and facial features.

Add the trees and other landscape elements, using varying line weights to create depth.

Use cross-hatching to create shadows and add volume to the figures and objects.

Refine the details and add any final touches, such as the birds in the sky.

Erase any unnecessary pencil lines to clean up the drawing.
