Find the core shadow, cast shadow, and the reflective light. These are the key to making a realistic looking drawing. Things I learned from my one day three hour drawing class. I'll be taking more for sure. Exciting!
That's the truth Ako,now you can draw a "still-life" just with shadows . The best book and course I know is: " DRAWING ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BRAIN " by Betty Edwards. That book is a little tresure, grt, jan
I once owned that book. The truth is I took a drawing class in college at the time when I had an artist boyfriend. Back then I had super hard Math/computer classes. Let's just say I aced it without my own effort. I thought back then I benefitted, when in reality, my loss. I didn't realize my potential until many years after, literally when I started this blog. That's what I got for cheating. I cheated from myself.
Totally new. It all started with a sketchbook I got in January 2009, drew the likeness of my daughter (to my surprise), got inspired by cartoonist Lynda Barry, then this blog was created in May 2009.
I must confess that getting visits from wonderful stranger artists out there is a thrill.
Everyone is welcome and thanks for visiting!
ce dessin est mysterieux mais d'un coté il a de l'intéret dans ce sens qu'on s'arrete sur lui et qu'on le regarde longuement ! tres reussi ;)
