Do you feel your drawings lack that vital spark and want to make them more appealing? In this class you’ll learn how to improve your drawings by using some animation concepts, such as shapes and lines, and taking advantage of colored pencils for the lineart and volumes.
I’ll break down my drawing process and take you step by step through improving your sketch using interesting shapes, lines and negative space. You’ll dedicate time to warm-up and hatching, which will help you become familiar with pressure variation and flexible strokes. You’ll also learn simple techniques to add more depth and life to your drawings.
To better follow this class you should have some prior experience with drawing, as I won’t be going into drawing and anatomy basics. The purpose of my course is to synthesize complex concepts, such as volumes and design, into quick, practical tips that you can take and apply directly into your work right away!
Your project for this class is to do a finished drawing using all the concepts you’ve learned. You can apply these techniques to any subject you usually draw, not necessarily people, as the concepts are universal and immediate. You can use pencils and paper or, if you want, do it digitally.
I would love to see a before and after of your work after taking this class, so please feel free to share with me your drawing progress!
