Landscape: visual features of an area of land, including physical elements of landforms such as mountains, hills, water, etc.
My understanding of the art world, in this case landscape paintings is that the painting is reflexive of what the artist can see. I think the landscape needs to include a horizon line or point where the foreground/middle-ground meets the background. I also think that a landscape picture doesn't need to be in nature either. While my definition doesn't include urban life/city landscapes I think that a landscape painting of a city horizon can be very cool and interesting.
In my first two sketches, I tried to implement one and two-point perspective. I struggled with my first two-point perspective of the gym because I was drawing from a tough angle but I think I became more comfortable and felt much more comfortable in my second sketch which was a one point perspective drawing. In my oil paint painting, I was interested in the brink wall surrounded by leafs and trees. I think I could have picked a better location to draw for a landscape but I think it will look better when I finish it.
