Fog is a cloud that hovers over the ground instead of in the sky. Learn how to draw fog so that you can sketch a beautiful landscape.
When water vapor condenses, the water droplets can hover in the air to make fog. Fog isn't as thick as rain, but it still creates moisture in the air. People often see fog after a rainstorm.
Fog can be spooky sometimes because it obscures your vision. Many people bring fake fog machines to haunted houses during Halloween. However, fog can add natural beauty to a landscape, like the highway leading to the mountains in your drawing.

Sometimes, fog can be so dense that it obscures trees and mountains. Have you ever ridden in a car when fog was hovering over the road? The driver probably had trouble seeing the highway and activated the car's fog lights.
Use this guide to sketch this mysterious force of nature. Draw the setting for fun, or insert a character in the story. You might want to draw a cartoon rain coat so that your character doesn't get wet!
