Shading Study

Title: Shading Study 1

Date: Early 2023

Materials: Digital Drawing on iPad

​

     I created this shading study on Procreate (an app I highly recommend!) on my iPad, with the Apple Pencil. My main goal with this study was to play around with lighting and the shadows it creates on a figure. Shadows, I find, are very important to give dimension and emotion to a face.

     In my artwork, the red arrow signifies the direction that the light source is coming from. Below the shading practice, I provided three examples in color to give some more life to the faces and get some more practice.
