How To Draw Mountains and Cliffs | Shape, Proportion, and Simp;ification

This lesson was made in response to a viewer request. In this video, we focus on drawing mountains and cliffs by simplifying complex reference photos into clear shapes and tonal masses. I begin by organising the reference images with a 4:5 grid, an aesthetically pleasing ratio that helps with balance and composition. From there, we reduce what we see into a small number of large shapes—using light and dark rather than detail—to build strong, believable structure. I develop two drawings step by step, showing how far you can take a landscape without overworking it, and how accuracy in shape and proportion makes everything else easier. This lesson is especially useful if you want to improve: Seeing and placing large shapes Drawing proportion accurately Simplifying complex landscape subjects Grab a sketchbook and a pencil, and draw along with me.
