Join artists Paul Richmond and Melissa Forman for a class focused on the fundamentals of drawing. Learn how to work with value to add a more realistic sense of dimension to your drawings. We'll start by looking at some examples from art history and discussing how the artists utilized light and shadow in their work. Then we will do a simple value scale to explore the range of values your pencil can create. Next, we will draw a sphere that looks three-dimensional with shading and a cast shadow, followed by a more complex still life set-up with multiple objects and a dramatic light source. For our final project, we will do a reverse drawing, covering the paper with graphite to create a middle value and then adding shadows with the pencil and highlights with the eraser.
This class doesn’t require any prior experience or fancy tools. Everything you’ll see will be happening in Procreate, however if you have other software or want to try traditional materials – you’re welcome to join!
