The sun rises over a desert canyon, lighting up tall red rocks with flat tops. A slow river winds through, lined with green trees. In front, a prickly pear cactus grows among warm orange rocks. Pick this one when you want a longer painting full of detail. On this one, paint isn't kept inside the lines, so go slowly near the edges.
How to paint it
- Choose Watercolour for a soft look or Oil for a bolder one. Zoom in and use a small brush near the edges. Make the brush big and paint the low sky pale gold, then soft blue above.
- Paint the mesas and canyon walls orange-red, and the farthest ones soft violet. Add their shady sides with Darker. If paint goes over a line, tap Undo.
- Tap Texture twice and choose Clouds. Dab the clouds soft pink and pale orange.
- Go back to your brush. Paint the sunny part of the river pale gold, then the rest blue. Paint the near rocks orange, then add their shade with Darker.
- Paint the cactus green, then add its shade with Darker. Add the tree trunks with the Pencil and the darkest colour.
- Tap Texture twice and choose Foliage. Dab the trees and bushes green, and the pale bushes grey-green.
