STEPS TO LEARN DRAWING
LECTURE 2
CHOOSING THE RIGHT MATERIALS For sketching, it’s important to have a range of pencils. Try getting one from each family, including HB.
COMPOSITION AND FORM START WITH SIMPLE SHAPES.
Hatching and stippling often create an underlying presence of texture and roughness. Circling and using a blending stump creates clean, gradual smoothness.
SHADE AND SHADOW
Value is the darkness or lightness of a color. Light values are called tints and dark values are called shades. Contrast deals with difference. Contrast is produced when any difference between elements such as texture, color, size, or value occurs. It can be subtle or extreme. When it comes to shading, we are mostly concerned with the contrast that is produced from changes in value.
