What a better tutorial on how to draw a landscape than this one?
And you will agree with me that it's one of the best free tutorials website that you can find on the web today.
Some years ago, I saw the same tutorials on wetcanvas and I am happy to see them regrouped all together here. It makes life easier for everybody, doesn't it?
And I found that a great aid to help you out in drawing a landscape is this book Landscape Artist's Drawing Bible(which I could see in its German version while I stayed in Zurich, and in Italian when I went to one of my favourite bookshop in Como) and also this one Drawing Landscapes in Pencil by Ferdinand Petrie.
Take of of them and keep them in your bag!
What I learned is to first sketch your subject in different sizes and compositions, also by squinting and seeing blocks of colors and shades, geometrical patterns, and then slowly move up to detailing.
