But what will you learn in detail in this course?
Sketching: First of all, you will learn to analyze a real photo (in this case a plant) correctly in order to be able to implement everything realistically in your drawing afterwards. When you have finished analyzing the photo, you will start drawing the sketch. How important is the sketch anyway? At the end of this section you will have a finished sketch.
Color or grayscale: What are the differences between "greyscale" and "color blocking"? Both terms will be covered in detail and you will understand the use of greyscale and color after completing this section.
Setting shadows: If you look closely at the plant image, you will notice many small and large shadows that add depth to the photo. This is exactly what you want to do in your drawing. In this section you will learn how to do this and what you need to keep in mind.
Elaboration of the image: So far you have your plant in black and white. We want to change that in the penultimate section of the first project by converting the greyscale to color. In addition, you'll now get rid of the sketch and start effectively working out your image.
Add realism with highlights: As the name of the section suggests, you now add the final touch to your image. You can add realism to your image with light reflections and other smaller highlights.
Add blur: In photography, you often work with depth of field, which is something we want to implement in our drawing, of course. Therefore, in the last section of the project "Plant" you set the appropriate blur in the background to complete the realism.
The last two sections:
You've gone through all the steps in the previous lessons to create as realistic a result as possible, and hopefully you now have a realistic-looking plant in front of you. To deepen the whole thing again and also use other motifs we decided to draw a bird and a human eye and repeat the steps basically. Of course, with both bonus motifs you have to pay more attention to the proportions, which was rather secondary with the plant. Feel free to check out the free course preview to see for yourself the quality of the course.
Do you need Procreate?
Wencke shows you all the things taught in this course on the iPad using the Procreate app. Of course, you can also use the design principles in any other digital drawing software. This course does not cover how to use Procreate properly. For that we have created a great masterclass, which you can find on our instructor profile. You can also use any other drawing software.

MEHR ÜBER MARIUS:
Ich habe immer versucht, das Leben gegenwärtig und in vollen Zügen zu leben. Zu den Dingen, die ich in meiner Freizeit gerne tue, gehören Musik machen, mich über persönliche Finanzen austoben, neue Orte bereisen, Sport machen (großer Calisthenics Fan hier!) und mit Freunden und Familie essen gehen.
Im Jahr 2018 habe ich meine Fitnesstrainer B und A Lizenz gemacht und bin im Anschluss auf eine einjährige Reise um den halben Globus aufgebrochen. Die ersten acht Monate verbrachte ich in Australien, wo ich die Freiheit des Lebens in vollen Zügen genoss. Darauf folgten drei Monate pure Action gemischt mit Hängematte am Strand in Asien. Ich kaufte mir unter anderem ein Motorrad in Vietnam und fuhr die Küste etwa 3000km entlang, wobei ich nicht nur einmal fast umgekommen wäre.
Heute arbeite Ich weiterhin mit Freunden an Film- und anderen kreativen Projekten zusammen und halte meine Fähigkeiten frisch und bereit, Dich zu unterrichten.
Ich möchte Dir zeigen, wie Du ein besserer Schöpfer werden, mit Deinen Kreationen Geld verdienen und das Leben leben kannst, von dem Du geträumt hast.

MORE ABOUT MARIUS:
I have always tried to live life presently and to the fullest. Things I like to do in my free time include making music, geeking out over personal finance, traveling to new places, exercising (big calisthenics fan here!), and going out to eat with friends and family.
In 2018, I earned my fitness instructor B and A licenses and then embarked on a year-long journey halfway around the globe. I spent the first eight months in Australia, where I enjoyed the freedom of life to the fullest. This was followed by three months of pure action mixed with hammocking on the beach in Asia. Among other things, I bought a motorcycle in Vietnam and rode along the coast for about 3000km, almost getting killed more than once.
Today I continue to work with friends on film and other creative projects, keeping my skills fresh and ready to teach you.
I want to show you how to become a better creator, make money with your creations, and live the life you've dreamed of.
