In this part 2/3 we’ll dive deeper on CYLINDERS, which are a great tool for conveying organic shapes such as limbs. These pose new challenges compared to cubes and boxes, mainly - having to deal with round shapes such as circles & ovals. However, cubes on boxes are actually more complex, and more important in my opinion, at least in the beginning. They demand you to be more specific with their orientation, as opposed to cylinders. They have clear planes. The one thing you want to slowly develop your understanding of - is how open / closed the side plane’s oval is, AND how much tapering / convergence the lines representing the long axis should have. I hope you’ll enjoy this lesson and find it useful 😊🙏🏼 - Liron Time-Stamps: 00:00 - Introduction 00:39 - Round shapes VS Cubes & Boxes 03:40 - Drawing Basic Cylinders 08:45 - The Top / Bottom Plane’s Ellipse 12:56 - Better Understanding the Secondary Axis 17:44 - Cylinders in Perspective 21:32 - Using Boxes as a Basis for Cylinders 25:26 - What if the Top / Bottom plane IS an ELLIPSE 26:36 - Conclusion 🎨 MATERIALS I OFTEN USE 🎨 Paints (all Daniel Smith) Phthalo Blue (Red Shade) - https://amzn.to/2FCuEvA Ultramarine Blue - https://amzn.to/2FCvicu Nickel Azo Yellow - https://amzn.to/2HW5Ik3 Perylene Red - https://amzn.to/2HUc1Ve Quinacridone Rose Brushes Tracy Lebenzon Brushes http://www.lebenzon-paintbrushes.com/ Escoda Travel Sets: https://www.escoda.com/sets-de-viaje.html Silver Black Velvet - https://amzn.to/2JCnSJZ Raphael - https://amzn.to/2Wo71wb (multiple sizes and sellers) Princeton - https://amzn.to/2YoSHpa Paper Saunders Waterford / Arches, 300gsm, cold-press - https://amzn.to/2WrdTZU Palette Mijello Airtight 18 Wells - https://amzn.to/2IbhSoa Plein-Air Easel The BEST I've found so far for watercolor - https://amzn.to/2Ljyc6Q White Pen Uniball Signo White Gel Pen (easy to find on ebay!) *** MUSIC CREDITS *** Music by Joakim Karud http://youtube.com/joakimkarud Music by @joakimkarudmusic * Please note this disclosure - Many of the links to Amazon (and possibly other websites in the future) are affiliate links.
