3 Class Highlights
❶ Developing Skills and Senses in Drawing
Drawing is more than just putting pencil to paper. It requires a combination of skills and senses to create truly attractive and captivating pictures. When you have a limited ability to observe and express what you want to draw, you're limiting your own potential as an artist. The key to expanding your abilities lies in developing your skills and senses. By learning how to see things in new ways and express your ideas with greater clarity, you'll be able to bring your artistic vision to life in a way that captures the attention of your audience. Don't settle for less than your full potential – take the time to cultivate your skills and senses, and watch as your drawings become more vibrant, expressive, and unforgettable.
❷ Mastering the Basics of Photoshop
As an artist, my go-to tools are my tablet and Photoshop. In this upcoming class, I'll be sharing the basics of using Photoshop, from mastering the interface to setting shortcuts and layer settings. My hope is that this will be a time for you to truly immerse yourself in the unique charm of Photoshop and discover all the possibilities it has to offer. Whether you're a beginner looking to get started with digital art, or a seasoned pro looking to brush up on your skills, I'm confident that this class will provide valuable insights and techniques to help take your artistic endeavors to the next level.
❸ Tips for Achieving Realistic Artwork
To truly elevate the quality of your artwork, it's crucial to master the balance and proportions of the human body. By paying close attention to the shapes of hands, feet, and ears, you can create more accurate and visually appealing depictions of your subjects. It's important to develop a deep understanding of the basic structure of the human body, so that you can apply this knowledge to capture the proportions of a beautiful figure that aligns with your artistic preferences.
Whether you're drawing static poses or dynamic action shots, mastering the proportions of the human body is key to creating compelling and realistic artwork. So take the time to observe, learn, and apply these principles – and watch as your drawings come to life with a newfound sense of depth and realism.
