The key to drawing a Christmas landscape is in the details. You have to be creative to make your snowy landscape look different than all the other snowy landscapes. Here are two methods to draw a Christmas landscape.
Steps
Method 1
Method 1 of 2:
First Method
Start by drawing the land. Since this is a winter landscape, the ground will be covered with snow.
Draw another curved line on the background of the first.

Draw two or more pine trees. If you notice, they look like triangles with jagged edges.
Add a Christmas star in the sky. Add a star on each of the trees. Don’t forget to put a little bit of snow on the tree.
Paint your drawing. Use soft colors like sky blue, and a very pale purple and white for the sky and snow. And, of course, paint the trees green. Use gradients and texture as you wish.

Method 2
Method 2 of 2:
Second Method
Draw curvy lines. This will eventually become snow and hills.
Start sketching the sky. Draw clouds, and, if desired, add a sun or moon. Make sure that you don’t add anything onto the bottom section.
Draw a Christmas tree. Add lights and ornaments.
Add in a snowman or two.
Add details. Consider adding falling snow, or animals such as reindeer.
Outline your drawing with permanent media (like ink,marker,sketch pen,etc. ). Make sure to erase all your guidelines.
Color it and you’re done!

Would you like to learn how to draw a Merry Christmas Card? Now you can with the help of this festive winter scene.
Christmas cards have a long history. Sending letters around the turn of the year had long been a tradition in England, one which gained popularity during the 1800s as the postal service became fast and affordable.
In 1843, one socialite found he had too many friends and family members to write personal letters to.

He solved the dilemma by having a thousand copies of a Christmas-themed image printed. Thus the first Christmas card was born.
Today, Christmas cards like the one in this drawing tutorial combine elements from many different belief systems – for example, the gift-giving elf of European folklore, the evergreen tree of ancient European nature worship, and elements of the Biblical story of Christ.
