I have great pleasure in introducing a new web
site on a
fascinating subject - PENCIL SHADING.
Since a drawing using pencil shading is like playing
with light and shade,
expertise comes only after one has studied the
range of tones that is possible using
the single medium of the pencil.This site starts
with a general instructions and exercises,
these are followed by a variety of assignments
on object
drawing and landscapes which could be framed and
displayed in one's home.
For those who find drawing difficult, pencil shading
will seem easier,
while almost everyone will find it interesting
to do.
So, reach out for your pencil and let the magic
of black and white unfold

A sketch is a rapidly executed freehand drawing
that is not intended as a
finished work, often consisting of a multitude
of overlapping lines.
Sketches usually serve to quickly record ideas
for later use.
Sketches are inexpensive and allow the artist
to try out different ideas before committing
to an expensive and time consuming painting or
fresco.
Sketching sharpens an artist's ability to focus
and has often been a
prescribed part of artistic development for
student and professional alike |
