The Magic of Shading, How to Draw with Value

The Magic of Shading, How to Draw with Value

The Magic of Values follows the class the Power of Line series. In this class we explore the fundamentals of values and how to give objects the illusion of Depth with shading. Shading is one of the best tricks the visual artist has in his arsenal! It allows the artist to fool the viewer into believing they are seeing a 3D object on a 2D piece of paper. Join me as we will discover tips and techniques for creating objects with depth.

Draw along with me and practice shading techniques, handholds and approaches. Then using the concepts of form shadows together we will draw the cube, cone, pyramid, cylinder and sphere with values. We will then learn to draw a pear to describe it's many shades and subtleties.

The lectures are filmed in real time so you can enjoy seeing the drawing progress from the beginning to the end.  Drawing along with the videos will help improve your drawing faster. Learning to draw comes through practice. More you do the better you become! So join me and let's start drawing today!!
