This was my first attempt at a frontal view of my face, it was difficult to get the exact shading in, but looking at the tutorial helped a lot and I am excited to see how the next step (the 3 faces at different angles) and painting goes. This was a good practice for the project that will follow. Stay tuned...
This one was pretty straight forward. I used value to make sure my branches weren't overpowering the pink in the tree leaves, and I tried to blend some blue into the street and sidewalk even though it isn't blue in real life. This was a fun assifnment, I like using water colors because layering is easy. The mountains were tough, but I decided to go with a blue/black with some white/grey on too to show light, and it turned out pretty well. This drawing took some time. I started by using my iPad to find the vanishing points on either side of the corner to make my drawing as accurate as possible. After that, I drew them on separate sheets of paper that were taped onto my final draft paper, and started working. Every horizontal line had to connect to one of the vanishing points, and I used value to create the illusion of depth in my piece. |
