Description
Explore nature drawing in this fun terrarium drawing lesson. In this class, you’ll be guided through designing different elements in a terrarium, while focusing on the key feature: a bonsai tree! This isn’t just any regular nature drawing course, but one where you can experiment and explore the technique behind different elements so that you can apply them to future projects!
By the end of this course, you will know how to:
- Draw a bonsai tree
- Create water and transparency
- Add colours and shading to give your drawing dimension
- Create a visually appealing composition
- Draw different elements from nature
- Create the illusion of glass
Materials:
- My demo is drawn digitally using Medibang Paint Pro, but you may use any medium
- If you're working traditionally, I recommend pencil, fineliner and coloured pencils
- To learn how to use digital techniques, see our lesson: Intro to Digital Art in MediBang
