Set the background color to a light blue or green to simulate sky or grass.
3. Create the Ground
Use the "Shape Tool" to draw a rectangle or polygon that represents the ground.
Apply a brown or green color fill for the earth. You can use the "Gradient
Tool" for a more dynamic look (e.g., lighter color at the horizon and darker
color towards the bottom).
4. Design the Sky
Use the "Shape Tool" to create a large circle or semi-circle for the sun.
Place the sun towards the top-right or top-left corner of your landscape.
Use yellow or orange for the sun's color.
5. Draw Trees and Plants
Use the "Brush Tool" or "Shape Tool" to create trees or plants.
Experiment with different shapes for the tree trunks and leaves (circles for
foliage, rectangles for trunks).
Apply shades of green for the leaves and brown for the trunks.
6. Add Mountains or Hills (Optional)
Use the "Polygon Tool" to create mountains or hills in the background.
Fill the mountain shapes with gray or white to simulate rocky peaks or snowy
hills.
7. Add Clouds
Use the "Brush Tool" to draw clouds in the sky.
Make them soft and fluffy with a white or light gray color.
8. Add Final Touches
Add clipart such as birds, animals, or houses to enhance your landscape design.
Experiment with adding shadows or gradients for a more realistic effect.
9. Refine and Adjust
Adjust the sizes and positions of the elements (trees, sun, clouds) for balance
and symmetry.
Make sure all elements look harmonious together.
10. Save and Export
Save your project in Sketch.io for future edits.
Export the final design as a PNG or JPEG file to share or print.
Quick Tips:
Use the "Undo" button if you make a mistake.
Zoom in for detailed work, especially on smaller objects like trees and animals.
Experiment with transparency and gradients for a unique effect in your landscape.
