When I was a child, there was a pool of green water near my house. In summer, my friends and I used to swim in it, and in winter, we could skate on it. Everyday after school, I walked in the soft puce earthy street instead of hard road . There were larks and magpie in the woods around the house, twittering in the trees and I knew they used to greet me .
I liked all kinds of flowers planted by my parents，surrounding our house, the feeling is so quiet and peaceful . There were red, pink, yellow etc. in there. The courtyard was full of vegetables and fruit trees, it was so clean that you can hardly see any weeds . Now living in the city, I feel I'm far from nature increasingly. Although those people who live in a small village are simple and unadorned, the advantage is that they are still passer-by in nature, and I am not.
小时候家乡有一池碧水，夏天小伙伴们可以在里面洗澡，冬天上面结冰可以滑冰。每天放学踩在脚下的不是硬硬的柏油马路，而是深褐色的带有泥土的沙路。房屋周边的树丛里有云雀，喜鹊叽叽喳喳的叫声，我知道它们总是来迎接我回家。
我喜欢爸爸妈妈房前屋后种植的各种花草，有串红，遍竹，日美人，步步高等。院子里也是打扫的干干净净，除了各种蔬菜果树，几乎没有一点杂草。现在生活在都市，感觉离自然越来越远。有些小村庄的人虽然居住简朴，优点是他们仍然是大自然中的一个过客，而我早已不是。。
Today I'd like to share with a landscape painting and this is my first time to paint it. I feel it is an elusive skill. Drawing is a process that you need to exercise it constantly, especially commendably control the water in watercolor.
I drew it at will this time. I didn't use a ruler to measure the exact size of the paintings，didn't mounted paper with tape and I hope to improve it gradually. ：）
今天给大家分享的是一幅风景画，第一次画风景，还真不好把握。画画是一个不断磨练的过程，在水彩画里，尤其是对水的把控。我这次画的比较随意，没有用尺子精确的量好画作尺寸，没有用水胶带裱纸。望日后慢慢改善吧。：）
Material 所用工具：
水彩纸 ，水彩颜料 ，画笔，纸巾，水杯
Process:
Step 1 : line work
大致勾画房屋及树丛。
Step 2: Color the roof and walls of the house. You can select your favorite color.
给房屋的屋顶和墙面上色.自己喜欢什么颜色的就上什么颜色。我喜欢明亮的色彩，我用了中黄和红色加水混合调和的淡淡的橘黄色，和橘红色给屋顶上色，又用一点紫罗兰和水混合，给墙面上色。水中的倒影同时也涂上。房屋的暗部部分，需要再次叠色。
Step 3: Color the windows of these house with violet and a little black.
用紫罗兰和一点点黑色加水调和，给窗户上色。
Step 4: Color the woods surrounding these house with yellow and grass green, and then color the fence by the river with chore and orange red.
用黄色和草绿色给房屋周围的树丛上一层浅色。用赭石和橘红色加大量水调和，给河边的围墙上一层底色。
Step 5: After the paper was dry, color the second layer of the woods with olive green and dark green. don't paint the area of the bright part and the branch. So did the inverted image.
再画面干透后，用橄榄绿和深绿色给树丛上第二层绿色，留出亮部和枝干的位置。倒影也涂上。
Step 6: Paint the shade of woods with dark green and a little of black and then paint the brunch with chore and burnt umber.
用深绿和一点黑色加水调和给树丛的暗部上色，用赭石和熟褐色给枝干上色。
Step 7: Color the mountain in the distance with grass green and Prussian blue.
用草绿和普兰色给远处的青山上一层浅色。
Step 8 : After the paper was dry, paint the mountain with dark green and blue.
画面干透后，再次加深颜色给青山再上一层青绿色。
Step 9: Color the sky with violet and light blue and then moisten the bottom of the paper, color the lake with light blue and green.
用平涂法再给天空上一层浅紫色和浅蓝色的混合色。接着打湿水彩纸底部，给湖水上一层青蓝色。山脉的倒影。（没有裱纸，有点皱了。）
Step 10 : Lastly paint the fence with darker color and other details. It is finished!
又加深一下围栏和屋顶小窗户的细节，就完工了。

its very refreshing in the eyes to see this art! what more your experience during your childhood in this kind of neighborhood. After the stressful day of work, it is fascinating to be home in this kind of scenery.
Painting in watercolor is one of the most complex technique of drawing! But you are really good in it! Thanks for inspiration!!!

画的还不好，就留作纪念吧。
姐姐，水彩画学起来快吗？
要说上手也不难，画好还是挺难的。人人都会画的，只要有时间去练。：）你也学吧，呵呵。
好的，成都有那种2小时速成班，零基础画星空画，下次我去试试。O(∩_∩)O~
对啊，有时间可以去看看，回来给我们分享。
好的😊

Great talent :) I love the reflection
水裡有隻綠貓~~~~ 喵!~~~~~
你没看山上还有只猫头鹰呢，呵呵。
😌喜歡～好寜靜的畫面，想在裡面住住看。常常想在家裡種菜和水果，但被高樓包圍著沒陽光，種甚麼都發完芽就枯掉...
我也是啊，我在家的花盆里种了一颗樱桃树，前半个月长的可好了，出去三天回来就渐渐枯死了。
Love it
Great posts can be useful can be an experience. Hopefully be a friend who can help me to like you ..... to dream and hope to be achieved. Like @sinta need friend support. Best regards.

Great article, many thanks for it.
I love to paint but I am not that much good at it. Steps explained will help me a lot to improve myself.
SteemArtIt !
真是漂亮！我非常喜欢这种类型的题材画，除此之外，那种“远看寒山石径斜”的水墨画，我也非常喜欢，先前有个朋友送了我一副那个字画，我能盯着它，出身地望一下午，感觉让人非常的畅想，又使心情可以得到放松。
你能看一下午，那的多漂亮的画啊！哪天给我偷偷展示一下。
Great technique. Love your work.
Really good job! Keep it up.
Very Cool ! Awesome!
Not bad. I remember whenever I tried painting traditionally I always messed up lol.
真有種鄉愁感啊! 這就讓我想到以前念書的時候,時常都很想家!!
我也是。。尤其是高中的时候第一次离开家很远。。
恩~ 你們的遠才是真正的很遠!! 所以每次回家都想賴在家不出門!! :P

Wow, your drawing is beautiful ;)
as weird as it sounds, watching the evolution of the painting I actually felt like I was getting an image in my head of the town you used grew up in. Absolutely beautiful!
画得好好呀，只是没有愁的感觉，感觉清新小暖的感觉，不过样更明媚更温馨的感觉，好喜欢！！
谢谢@tvb, 的确，愁很难描述呀。。不想画的太压抑呢。只是怀念这美好的样子，如今村庄已大变模样。
是的不要愁，就这样最好，很美很恬静
Great! Accurate and colorful work ! well done, @helene :)
