In this easy drawing tutorial, the third in my series on drawing for beginners, I explain how to use shading to create depth and distance in a drawing. I demonstrate how, by varying the pressure on the pencil, you can create different tones of shading. I then focus on two important techniques:<br /><br />1. Contrast - by creating contrast you can make objects appear to stand out, dark against light will often make the lighter object stand out.<br />2. Shading objects lighter next to dark objects, the darker objects will often come forward, this is the basis of creating depth in a drawing.<br /><br />You can use any pencil for this exercise, but the softer pencils, 2B, 4B, 6B will work best.<br /><br />For more art tutorials designed for beginners and those more experienced at drawing and painting, plus hints and tips - visit my website:- <br />https://paulpriestley.com<br /><br />Want to support Art Tutorials Online make more videos and receive great rewards in return?
