The whole drawing process showing you how to create the smaller details including the effects to create the illusion of details. We all love to draw but we can do it with more efficiency if we pay attention to some of the techniques we develop for drawing.
We create the whole photo realistic drawings by developing and nurturing these techniques plus we can draw more.
Most of us are moved by photo realistic drawings and wish that we could have the same skills for doing the same.
This genre of photo realistic drawings is now available to everyone with a phone or tablet.
The Paintology drawing approach is a far more natural process of drawing than using digital tools. The opacity setting of the brush allows you to build up the tones with each stroke much like using a colored pencil and paper. This method of drawing feels like actual drawing without always having to dive into the tools section. You can rapidly build tones, colors, textures required for great drawings without the extensive tools. Focus more on your actual drawing than always having to access tools.
Mastery of these skills will allow you to create photo realistic drawings with ease and much faster than using tools. You can carry these fundamental skills to other art mediums too.
Paintology has been developed from the ground up to focus the attention on your drawing ability rather than technical mastery of software. With techniques you develop through drawing with the app, you can apply this to other drawings and even to your traditional drawing and painting.
In this drawing. we are going to draw this bag of crisps and learn some fundamentals of drawing such as selecting tones, improving your strokes and more.
Go ahead and download your free Paintology app from the Google play store and we can then get started.
