- Using artline pen to create the shading.
- As for the shading technique, I have used the hatching, crosshatching, contour hatching, and random techniques.

BASIC DRAWING 2: SUBJECT MATTER (SHOE)
Wednesday, 26 November 2014
COLOUR STUDY: SPLIT - COMPLEMENTARY
- The split-complementary color scheme is a variation of the complementary color scheme.
- It uses the two colors adjacent to its complement.
- This color scheme has the same strong visual contrast as the complementary color scheme, but has less tension.
COLOUR STUDY: COLOUR VALUE
- Colour value refers to the lightness or darkness of a colour. Value becomes critical in a work which has no colours other than black or white. Every colour can produce a variety of tones; how light or dark these are depends on the colour.
- These are the colour value that we make using primary colour; YELLOW, RED, BLUE. Starts with the colour, we keep on adding white colour to get the lightest colour.

BASIC COMPUTER 2: RENDERING SHADING TECHNIQUE
DOTS/STIPPLING
- Use tiny dots to create value.
- The closer together the dots, the darker the tone.
- Larger dots create a denser tonal value more quickly but can looks coarse.
SCRUMBLING/RANDOM
- "Brillo Pad" technique, uses layers of small calligraphic to build up value and texture.
- Various textures result depending on whether these short hatches are applied
vertically, at right angles, following a contour or at random angles.
CROSS HATCHING
- Uses layers of hatching placed at an angle.
- The first layer would be vertical, the next horizontal, the next at 45°, and so on.
HATCHING
- Basic method of creating value in ink drawing.
- The closer the lines are, the less white paper shows, and the darker the value appears.
CONTOUR HATCHING
- Hatching placed at a slight angle creates a moire-like effect, the diamond-shaped
fragments of white paper enlivening the denser ares of value;
- Often used in figure drawing, with the direction of line helping to suggest the cross-
contours of the body;
- Hatching which follows a contour can also help to make objects appear more three-
dimensional.

BASIC DRAWING 2: CONTOUR DRAWING, GESTURE DRAWING, BLIND CONTOUR DRAWING
CONTOUR DRAWING
- A contour is the line which defines a form or edge an outline, the place where most beginners start, following the visible edges of a shape.
GESTURE DRAWING
- A gesture drawing is work of art defined by rapid execution. Gesture drawing is often performed as a warm-up for a life drawing session.
BLIND CONTOUR DRAWING
- A method of drawing that widely used, where an artist draws the contour of a subject without looking at the paper.
