"How to draw outdoor cartoon landscape. We'll start with trees always a nice place to start. Give ourselves a nice tree. Now remember trees can be shaped any which way. They are almost always irregular and so don't ever feel like you've messed up with a tree. And give us some grass. We're going to make a path coming down through the grass. Grass all along the side there. You can play around with the grass as long as you want, fill up the whole page with grass. As we, we're going to put a few little bushes here, you know its kind of like a park. The more texture you add the less they look like marshmallows and the more they look like bushes. And now as we get into the background we're going to start to get a little bit hilly. Now remember you draw the people, you can draw them anywhere you like. Or your animals, your dogs. Doing all of their various things, having fun. As we come into the back here we're going to get a little more hilly. And then we're going to do some mountains way in the back. And its just really easy. You can do some mountains and have like a snowcap like that. Or you can simply just show the shadow, whatever side you put the sun on, put more detail and texture on that side to show a shadow. Make them look more 3D. Put your sun, put your lazy clouds. If you remember from science class what kind of clouds are, they're not the cumulous, not the round kind, kind of the more stretched out ones. Its also cool, you can put your sun here, or you can put it here have kind of like a sunset or sunrise. And there is our cartoon outdoor landscape."
