Complexity Made Simple
Landscape is often called the most difficult of painting
genres; however, I think it depends more on what you’re used
to painting. I blanch at the accurate drawing required for
portraiture for instance. Certainly I can see that landscape
painting requires more skill in wielding our artistic license. We
can’t move trees and mountains around in the scene like we
can apples in a still life, and we can’t adjust the lighting as we
would in a figure setup.
