This card is from SVS How to Draw Everything.

This lesson is about the beginnings of rendering tone. On paper, I used hatching and different pencils and markers. This time around, I used just simple brushes and the lasso and fill tools in Photoshop. This actually took me a long time relatively since I’m still learning Photoshop. I’m still learning the keyboard shortcuts and tools. The actual examples were fairly easy, and I think the results are ok, but it is an intro lesson and I have a lot more to learn. There’s a light and shadow class coming up which goes more into depth.

Next time I will try to create more of a still life type of image so I can explore the cast shadows and interactions between objects. Although the point of this exercise is just an introduction. More in depth cards will come up soon

I took my time learning tools and trying things out, so this took about an hour to complete this image.
