Any good tutorials on how to draw a forest?

Question

I'm trying to look for a good picture reference or a tutorial where it can show how to draw a bird's eye view of a forest. 

I don't want it to be too "cartoony" and in the product be labeled as kindergarten work. It doesn't have to be realistic to a T but I'd prefer it to be closer to realism than cartoony.

Answer 1

Drawing a forest is hard (because of the detail). It is easier to paint it. You can generalize it rather than draw each tree. You can look for texture and value areas to draw. To answer you question I must admit I no of no such specific site. I would just look at others drawings and see what they did.
