Description: Over and over again, I have drawn some pretty cool sceneries, and over time I have gotten better with creating them to look relaxing, bright, and sort of real. Yesterday I sketched out a really pretty landscape that kind of reminds me of a far away place in a jungle somewhere. So having said that, let’s learn "how to draw waterfalls", step by step. Before I start guiding you through this lesson, I just want to talk about waterfalls for a minute or two. First off, I think we can all agree that these beautiful landmasses, are extremely serene. Now, waterfalls come in many different shapes, and sizes, and they can also be found across the globe. One of the prettiest type of waterfall, is the ones that are flowing from extreme heights off the top of a cliff somewhere in the forest. I mean, even though I can sit here and tell you how awesome a waterfall is, there is really no way of me knowing because I have never seen one in real life before. My interpretation of these massive nature made creations, is solely from my point of view. Of course if I ever did, or when I do finally see a waterfall up close, I’m sure I will be amazed. Anyways, that is all I really wanted to say, so I guess we can move on to this tutorial where I will teach you "how to draw waterfalls", and remember you can always tweak your sketch to add some personalty. That’s all for now, join me again for more great fun. See ya!
