Color Block Landscape Tutorial-Affinity Designer

In this tutorial I will show you an easy project for practicing the Pen Tool. I will be demonstrating this in Affinity Designer, but you can do this in any of the Affinity programs. We will be creating some color blocked wall art of a mountain range. You could also cut out each layer with a cutting machine to create a layered (e.g. shadow box) art piece. You will also learn about applying gradients in this design. See below for a link to a more detailed gradient tutorial from my friend Shannon.
