Creative Sketching: Fill Your Illustrations with Life and Detail

Description

In this course, you will learn:

• Begin by putting your materials to the test and doing some study to select an area to portray.
• Then, by making a list of things you wish to include in your artwork, construct the storey behind it. Make a mood board to use as a guide when you're drawing.
• To plan out your composition, make little thumbnail sketches and then a full-sized detailed pencil drawing of the result.
• Before adding color to your finished artwork, ink your pencil lines and apply a wash for shading.
• Learn how to scan your illustration once you're satisfied with the outcome.
• Then, before making the final modifications to your picture, learn how to utilise Photoshop to fuse portions of your picture together.
