Playing With Pencils

Many artists struggle unnecessarily for years to create a full range of values with only one or two pencils, totally unaware of how pencils themselves can create different values. In this lesson, you create the illusion of depth in a mountain range, by using various grades of pencils. You will also utilize two components of perspective, overlapping and atmospheric perspective.

Jan Myrz Jun.5th 2011: Playing with pencils is fine; especially if you have all the pencils asked for. I however lacked 3 for this lesson, but have ones not asked for; I used what I had of what was required; maybe soon I'll be able to use the 3 not mentioned in the lesson. ha ha; Add your reply
