The cliff has a sharp edge and there are small ledges at the bottom. Small green bushes grow on the surface of the rock. You must depict all these elements in your drawing.

You can easily cope with this task because the lesson is designed specifically for novice artists. Freehand lines are allowed here. You can slightly change the shape of the cliff, the shape of the plants, or the shape of the clouds.
