Coloring Tips
Added 2018-12-05 16:04:54 +0000 UTCLook! my coloring world changed when I thought about this:
I used to put the light as if all light sources were at one side of the figure:
Light at the left side, shadow at the right side, and that was it. It gave an OK result, but never really added volume to the figure.
Suddenly one day I realized I could put the lightsource somewhere else! In fact, I like to think of it as if independent of the light source, which ends up giving the figure and picture an overall "style" rather than just an obvious representation of light.
By putting light in the middle of the figure, or rather, in the volume of the shapes I drew, I could begin to "carve" the figure through its lighter colors.
