Landscapes have been the subject of myriad masterpieces by great artists for centuries. Now anyone can bring scenic landscapes to life in vibrant color with this delightful trace-and-color guide. Six detailed templates are provided to help the beginning artist get started with a line drawing that they can color or paint in the medium of their choice.

Artists can simply transfer the template line drawings to paper or canvas with the included graphite paper.
