Drawing Together Episode 5: Life Gave us Lemons
this episode is Part of the Drawing Together live video series – learn more here
Life gave us lemons, so let’s make…Art! For this drawing session, I’ve set up a small still life with two lemons. Set up your own still life, or follow along using this reference image: https://bit.ly/2JkZkCw
Today, I’m working with:
- Toned Paper
- Vine Charcoal
- Charcoal Pencil
- White Chalk Pencil
- Kneaded and Rubber Erasers
Unfortunately, I didn’t use toned paper, but white paper. That’s why the bright spots don’t shine as much.
I tried to make it stand out a bit by “darkening” adjacent areas.
I am loving this series. Thanks for the classes.
Beautiful!
Nice work with this!
This looks great!
Welcome to the Drawing Together community! The first episode was “Cup#1” although there’s no linear order to these episodes. You can jump right in wherever you’d like! You can view them in order through this Youtube playlist if you’d like: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDAEJT7oj2BHLt-p6z91ki3FvjTTKzFKp. It’s organized with the newest video on top, so simply scroll to the bottom to find the first episode.
Hi, I just started the classes yesterday and drew the cat but I’d like to start with the first class and work forward. Can you give me a list of classes in order of them being done? Or does it really matter? I just thought there may be an order of difficulty.
Having fun with this.
Whole lemon looks a little off
Did this with my friend as make-up since we missed the first few. I LOVED working with toned or black paper!!
Really strong piece. Love the use of the toned paper.
