Sketch the basic composition, focusing on the placement of the river, mountains, and major landmarks.

Establish the sky with a thin wash of light blue and yellow, blending for a soft, atmospheric effect.

Block in the distant mountains with muted blues and grays, using lighter values for the higher peaks to suggest distance.

Paint the river with varying shades of gray and blue, capturing the reflections of the sky and surrounding landscape.

Add the trees and foliage, using a mix of greens, yellows, and browns to create depth and texture.

Paint the buildings and structures, paying attention to their form and placement within the landscape.

Refine the details, such as the bridge, rooftops, and individual leaves, using smaller brushes.

Add highlights and shadows to enhance the sense of light and form, and adjust colors as needed to achieve a harmonious balance.
