The former effect is secured by drawing the delin-ations of the more distant objects smaller in size, just as theseobjects actually appear, with a fine light line and increasingthe weight of the line used for objects nearer the rough outlines of one or two objects in the foregroundfrequently assists in securing the effect, but such objects shouldbe sparingly shown, as they are of no importance except inthis connection and in assisting to identify the point fromwhich the sketch was made. 128 LANDSCAPE SKETCHING CULTIVATION •.
