This composition uses the rules of frontal perspective described in this article. First, you need to draw a background on a piece of paper. For it I used white, blue and black paint. You can add other shades, a little pink, pale green. The shades should be pale, just stand out a little from the background.
For the distant massif of park trees we will need a hard brush and palette. On the palette you need to mix blue, white and very little black paint. I mixed several options - one made it more gray, another with blue, and in the third I added a little ocher.
Using a hard brush, I painted the trees without detail.
Now, remembering the frontal perspective, let's draw the alley itself, going into the distance. On plots of land we draw trees growing along the road. Notice that the tree trunks that are further away appear higher on the paper, thinner, and less saturated. I painted the trunks by mixing blue, white and black paint. The trees ahead should be brighter.
To draw the foliage, we will use the same hard brush that we used to paint the distant trees. You need to take the paint on an almost dry brush and try it on another paper first.
Let's draw leaves that have not yet fallen off on all the trees.
Then use orange, red and brown paint to emphasize the volume of the foliage. We will place fallen leaves on the road. All we have to do is paint the lawns with yellow grass and fallen leaves. Using the same hard brush, we will apply strokes of yellow and orange paint to the road, indicating the leaves that have fallen from the trees in the park.
We offer detailed instructions by writing autumn landscape gouache. The finished painting will be a wonderful interior decoration, especially if framed in a baguette.
This creative master class will help improve your skills in working with gouache, learn how to draw the reflection of trees in water, develop a sense of composition and the ability to reflect the beauty of nature in a drawing.

Let's say you have an urgent need to draw something. Or your child came home from school with a drawing assignment and turned to you with the question: “How to draw an autumn landscape?” It's not as difficult as it seems at first glance.
The landscape will give you pleasure. This method has no limits for imagination and creativity. For your convenience, the article will contain photos that will clearly tell you how to draw an autumn landscape.
Before you start working, decide on the color scheme. Since we are painting autumn, the main colors will be yellow, orange, brown and red. We'll need some blue color for the sky and for the tree branches.
Place a piece of paper in front of you. Dilute it a little on the palette desired color, grab the paint with a sponge and light movements apply to paper. A little orange, a little blue, etc.
If you have a photograph or other picture in front of you, periodically step away from your work and compare the color spots with squinted eyes. At this stage, apply the paint very lightly, it should be heavily diluted with water, but do not drip from the sponge.
Let the paper dry a little. This stage is where you apply a second layer of paint. But not over the entire surface of the leaf, but pay more attention to the foliage. Don't touch the blue sky anymore.
Now use a sponge to add color accents in three or four places. To do this, you need to take a paint of a more intense color.
It's time for the brush. Paint the tree branches with brown paint. They should seem to be visible through the autumn foliage.
Of course, you can draw an autumn landscape with a pencil, and only then “go through” the colors. But this method is good precisely because you create the picture yourself using color spots. Here your imagination comes into play, and you simply improvise on the theme of autumn.
Now you know original way how to draw an autumn landscape. And the value of this method is not in the ability to draw a landscape, but in the ability to paint with color spots.
