Landscape is a genre in the visual arts, a reflection of natural or transformed by man nature, the environment, the whole wealth of plant, celestial and aquatic expanses. Oil painting is very durable. The analysis of paintings by masters of the past centuries allows highlighting the characteristic techniques of oil work, ways of creating an expressive image (color saturation, depth of tone, contrast, and others). The techniques used in oil painting are very diverse and their use in modern painting allows to create original and high-quality works. Performing landscape sketches is an important stage of learning the technique of oil painting. A high level of mastering of this technique is possible with the development of students’ skills of working on short-term and long-term landscape sketches, color vision, knowledge of the laws of linear and aerial perspective, color science. Only if students have basic knowledge and skills, it is possible to develop creative abilities, and as a result, access to an artistic image.
