BeginnerAbout the Course
Every artist once drew his first drawing of a figure. This mini-course is your chance to do it right: with an understanding of what you are doing and with a result that you can be proud of.
In one week, you will go from a blank sheet to a long—term drawing of a figure - with proper layout, shading and chiaroscuro. Azat Nurgaleev shows the whole process for two options: pencil and Procreate on iPad. Choose what is closest to you. If you are working in another program, the course is suitable for her, because the emphasis is not on the instrument, but on the drawing.
Here's what you'll master:
• Layout: how to correctly position an object on a piece of paper so that the drawing looks harmonious.
• Hatching: a graphic technique that makes a drawing vivid and textured.
• Tonal relationships: how to see and transmit light and shadow is the basis of any three—dimensional drawing.
• Chiaroscuro and volume: how to turn a flat contour into a three-dimensional object.
• Accents and planning: how to place accents so that the drawing is readable and holds the eye.
• Plastic anatomy: the relationship between plastic surgery and the anatomical structure of the figure.
After the course, you will not just have hand—drawn sketches and long -term figure drawing - you will have an understanding of how drawing works and the confidence that you can create new works on your own. This is the main result.
