How to Draw a Winter Landscape
Draw a winter landscape in 12 easy steps, about 9 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the big hill.
Step 1: The big hill
Near the bottom of your paper draw a big round hill: start low on the left, curve over, stop right.
Tip Keep both ends inside the paper.
Step 2: A hill behind
Start low on the big hill's right slope. Draw a smaller round hill behind, stopping level with its feet.
Step 3: The ground
Under the hills draw a long straight ground line from the left edge to the right edge.
Step 4: A tall fir tree
Start a tall fir tree at a point above the left slope: 3 tiers, a trunk down to the hill.
Tip Each tier starts on the bumpy bottom of the one above.
Step 5: The sun
In the top right corner draw a round sun as big as a plum, with 8 short rays around it.
Step 6: A cabin
On the right slope draw a cabin, pointy roof, square window. Arch a door from the bottom back to it.
Step 7: Snow bumps and chimney
Add snow bumps on the roof and tiers. Start a chimney on the roof and end on it. Add smoke.
Step 8: Snowflakes
In the sky draw 4 snowflakes: 3 crossing lines with a little V on each end, and 2 dots.
Step 9: Snowy white hills
Go over your lines, then colour both hills white like fresh snow.
Step 10: Yellow sun, blue window
Colour the sun yellow and the window sky blue.
Step 11: Green tree, wood trunk
Colour the fir tree green and its trunk wood brown.
Step 12: Wood cabin, red roof
Colour the cabin walls wood brown around the window, and the roof and chimney red. Your winter landscape is done!

Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a winter landscape, drawn by you.
