Landscape

Random experiment with a graphics tablet. There's more that I want to do with this piece, but I'm hopeless at actually drawing stuff. Created using Corel Photopaint 7 and a Wacom tablet. Critique welcome.

Suggestion: take a look at these photos. Notice how:

1) The sky color gets much lighter towards the horizon. This'll add depth.
2) The ground/plants details are big close up, and finer far away. Try using different brush sizes.
  2b) optional: work from far to near so your "nearer" brushstrokes (plants) will be in front of the farther ones.
3) Put in a happy little bush or something for a focal point =)
  3b) If you really think you're hopeless at depicting something, put in a little river.

Thanks, I'll have a go at those.
