"Hi this is Neha on behalf of Expert Village. Let's look at a very vital part of landscape drawing, which is all about detailing. A landscape when we begin, when we're just absorbing the elements and their beauty with our sheer observation, we should be very careful that the beginning stage is something like this. Where plain simple lines, just the form and the space division is captured. Then we gradually move on to the detailing bit. For example, when we look at this landscape. It's got, when we talk about details, there are the details of the roof, the details of stone, the details of everything around, even the pebbles which are kept on the sand, on the soil, are very very clearly detailed out. As we can see and gradually when the distance is moving back, the detailing reduces, because it's about perspective. That is, the thing which is in front of you is bigger and clearer, and the thing which is farther from you is hazier and unclearer. It's the simple of perspective which will also function when making first landscape drawing."
