Description:
Welcome Students!My name is Robert A. Marzullo and I have been a professional artist for over 25 years. It is my goal to help you learn the things I wish I had known as a younger artist. This way, you get to level up your skills faster and I get to be the proud art teacher that helped you along the way.In this course my focus it to teach you how to draw more dimensional characters and concepts. We do this by studying light, shadow, and rendering. I will showcase these concepts in a comic book line art style but it really does apply to all forms of drawing.In this course you will learn about - Cast shadowsDrop ShadowsBounced LightEdge LightingCore ShadowsSpecular Vs. DiffusedTextures and ImperfectionsThis course is broken up into 3 primary sections. The first is a basic exercise for you to study fades and rendering techniques. Feel free to share your work from any of these projects in the Q+A Section of this course.In the next section we will work on some more advanced versions of light and shadow by drawing an arm and a leg. Here we will delve into single and dual light sources. This can add a dramatic look to your work. I chose to use an arm and a leg but this technique can and will apply to all sorts of other areas in your artwork.For the third section you will learn to light a face from three different angles. This will help you to be creative and explore variations when working on your characters. Again, this can be a great way to add mood and drama to your stories.Let me know if you have any questions along the way during this course and I can't wait to see your amazing artwork!____________________________________________________________________________________// If you are not totally satisfied with this course, Udemy offers a 30-Day money back guarantee //____________________________________________________________________________________Thank you for considering my course and good luck with your art!
