The way you're handling the depth in that park scene is really solid. I can tell you're thinking about atmospheric perspective, the farther trees feel like they're sitting back in space instead of just getting smaller. That's the thing I always have to remind myself when I'm doing urban sketches: value shift does as much work as size.
Thank you for the comment. I always like to provide depth(atmospheric perspective ) in my landscapes but sometimes it could be a challenge.
The light pooling under those trees pulls me straight into the scene. That middle value range you've held across the grass keeps everything readable even with all that dappled shadow happening, which is something I burned myself on early on trying to do plein air digitally. The edges where light hits foliage feel like you knew exactly when to stop pushing paint around.
Much appreciated!
