Casting Shadows, Preclass

  • Posted by Sandy Allnock
  • Date January 19, 2019

In this intermediate course, supplies are up to the student; if the prerequisite Drawing 101 course has been taken, the same supplies will easily suffice – but students may use whatever medium desired to create sketches.

The instructor will use a variety of media, and students may decide after watching a lesson that they’d like to purchase those tools – and that’s fine as well! A few demonstrations will be done in watercolor and Copic marker – but pencil sketches are perfectly fine.

NOTE: In each lesson, a short example of a stamped usage of the lesson’s technique will be shown; videos are not complete tutorials and do not show the coloring of the full piece, only the shadows added. Copic colors are not included in these short examples. Stamps used are linked within each lesson, but are not included in this supply list, as they are NOT needed; any similar stamps can be used, or other scenes created with the lighting example.

Supplies

You do NOT need all these items – and you can use other drawing tools at your disposal. (You may wish to see some in action before deciding if you want to try them yourself.) This isn’t a technique class with any medium, but you’ll see a variety in use.

  • Staedtler Lumograph Drawing and Sketching Pencils (set of 12)
  • White Pitt Pastel Pencils – Medium hardness or Soft
  • Conte pencil, black
  • Kneaded eraser (optional: a set of 3 for more eraser options, a stick eraser if desired)
  • Pencil Sharpener – either the Quietsharp (electric) or a handheld (this one fits a conte pencil)
  • Two sketchbooks; these are the mixed media-weight paper:
    • Bee Paper Super Deluxe 9×12 
    • Stillman and Birn toned sketchbooks; any size and color is fine.
  • Optional Tools – not required for class but fun:
    • Graphite Paper if needed for transferring images
    • Rolling ruler  or regular ruler of any kind
    • A sketchbox of some kind to keep everything in

 Join Paint-my-photo

You’ll need to go set up a free account at PMP, and read the TOU. In each lesson, a linked folder is set up at PMP with not only the photo(s) used for class, but additional examples of the same type of lighting. Studying those photos will help to internalize your knowledge, so be sure to go check them out!

If you find other photos at PMP that match the type of lighting, please leave links in the comments on that lesson here, so other students can find them – and we can add them to the photo album for that lesson as well!

Share

Please share your art! Linking back to this site or mentioning the class name so others can take the class is appreciated – if you enjoyed it, your friends probably will too! You can share homework and ask questions in our Student Facebook Group for all classes here at Art-Classes…please do join in and share your work with other students!
