1. Intro: Hello there, My name is name and now the second spike
in an odd picture. In this class, I'll
be teaching you how to do jewelry, how to draw, how does get through
these frames you can use for your I said, Oh, it's just something that
you just want to practice with surgery teaching you how
to do some shading as well, which will add a three-dimensional
look to your jewelry. You will learn about
drawing technique, how to use your pencil
in the correct manner.
2. Lesson 1: Drawing Circles : So what you want to do is
get your pencil and make this circular motion
and making sure your wrist, it's very flexible. And so as you do this, you may create lots
of circular lines. But it's all about
that practice. You won't get the
perfect circle, but you'll see some lines. So you keep doing
that circular motion, making sure your hand is flexible and you just
practice doing that. You can see the extra lines. It's not gonna be perfect, but you just keep practicing. And then when you have
those extra lines, you can see which
one you'd go with and you drove out the lines
that you didn't want. So then it will look closer to the form that
you're looking for. That's why we use a rubber. So again, keep practicing
through this circular motion, making sure your
hand is flexible. And you want to do
about 20 of these. You can do less if you want to. It's just about you feeling comfortable drawing
circles, free hand.
3. Lesson 2: Drawing Pear no. 1: Okay, I'm just going to
demonstrate to you how to sketch. It's kinda like you feathering. So one step, another step. And then you do it again
next to each other. One step, two step. Okay, so if you practice
doing that feathering motion, and then as we were doing before in the previous
lesson with the circle, circles, I'm going to draw
two more ovals, I would say. Start off with a smaller
one and then a bigger one, like the number eight. That's what you
do for this pair. And then once that is done, you then think about drawing around those two forms there. Because what you're actually doing is picking
out the forms that are inside this shape. So e.g. because we're doing this pair, I'm looking at where
those circles would be. So I've got a smallest circle at the top and then
one at the button. And then I'll start
drawing around it. Okay, So doing that
furthered drawer would say a feathered sketching. Okay. So I'm going around it. When you further that gives you that opportunity to rub
out any excess lines. Then now I'm looking at the top, can see there is a ditch there, so just make a semicircle. I'm groove could
say just like this. And just practice
the side there. The next thing is a stalk,
which is at the top. So it's not a directly
straight line, but it goes to the
side slightly again. So just doing that
for sketching. And then I'll do that on top of the little semicircle kind of groove sketch that I've done. Then round the top. Okay, so that's that. The next thing I do is
get my rubber and I rub out the excess lines
that I don't need. The inward parts there. I can start seeing my pressure. When you do it like
this, it makes it so much easier than drawing it straight from your vision
or what you visually see. So it's nice to draw some
circles or some forms inside. To help you to draw
on the outside. I'm just going to go around it. The difference between drawing and sketching is
that sketching you have that kind of fabric
movement when you, when you when you use
your pencil, okay? And then if it's sort
of a rough edge to it, and then drawing,
you're actually just defining it, I would say. So that's what we're doing here. We're just going over it. You could say tracing over it, but you're just
drawing now I can. And you can see the pair. As you can see on the image. There are little fatty
liver freckles on the pair. So all you do is just do
some little dots really. And then you fill that in. Once that is done, you can then start thinking
about doing some rendering. Recall it. Rendering is
basically doing shading. So you just draw a dark line. Then you start to go
from dark to light. You pressing down the pencil and then use slightly
take it off. Okay. So you can try that again
and press down hard. And then you press
again hard and then gently take
your pencil off. Let me go lighter,
lighter, lighter. And if you think that
it's not good enough, then you can go over it and say, okay, I want it a
bit darker there. You can go over it to
make it a bit darker. If you feel so, then
you can do it that way. Okay. So now I can
do this in the past. I'm just going to
go from the edge, press Done one edge there. And then I'm going to shade. Going from dark to light. I do, I do it in
section by section, so don't do it all
at once because obviously there's so much
your hand can do it one time. Try not to press down
too hard with trying. Again, flexible. But yeah, you can use your
put your hand towards the end of the pencil again. So pressing down and
taking it out and just go over it as well until
you get what you want. I'm just gonna do this one side. So you can just get a taste of what's shaded should look like. Now, what you can do, you can just use
your finger just to smudge around the edges there, just to make it a
more seamless look. So you don't have a pencil line. I mean, you don't
really need to, but you can do it just to make it just smooth
out a little bit. And then use my finger
to smudge it out. And then just use rubber
to her about any excess. Okay. So their habit, you've got your shading, you've used those forms and
you've created your pair. And that's it. And I'm going to show you
how to do the next one.
4. Lesson 3: Drawing Pear 2 no. 2: Welcome to lesson three. I'm going to show you
the next pear pad number two, how to draw that. So if you get the image
of the sliced pair, this is the one that
we'll be working with in this lesson. I'm just using a
new sheet of paper, but you can keep using that same sketch
book, that's fine. So again, we're
working with the form. So we're going to do some circuit cycles in
the inside of the pair. So a large circle
is what I can see. And the smallest circle
on the top, right here. Again, as I said before, you can do the shape would be
eight if you wish to do so. It's up to you. I'm going to draw these circles. Draw my life cycle. And then my smallest
circle on top. And start to sketch
around the shape as it did before
in the other pair. That's, I'm looking at this. I can see that the palette
looks a little bit taller. There's like another piece
at the top as it were. So I've just added another circle on the
top to make it a bit taller than I draw around. During that. Forbids sketching. That's just to start with. And then you can
start drawing around it or tracing around it. And then you can
see at the button, there's a little bit
of a dip in there. So I'll sketch that in. Then. You've got the stem. I'm just putting it was
putting a dot there so I know how far I need to go
up to just an average. Just draw two lines.
The top there. So I do the rubbing
out for the lines. I don't need the center. Then I've got the PIP. And there's a little
bit of a line. Who the, the core of the pair. Son, just going to sketch a very faint line
down the middle. Make sure it's quite faint
because you can't really see this line so clearly. And then the PIP, I've just drawn a
line at diagonals, sort of like a diagonal line. I'm just doing a curve
on either side. Like so. Then I'm just gonna
do a little bit of, you can say shading in a way to show that the core center
here it has that little, I'm a dark area there. Now. Going to draw around, going to draw around the pair. And if you look on the image, you can see there
is a, you know, where the skin is as well. Um, you can draw a
line around that. So firstly, I'm just doing the outer line to
make it stand out. Use a rubber to rub
out any excess. Then I'm going to just
draw on the inner lines. So I'm going to just
sketch that really. Just make sure it's fine. You don't need to press
down too hard because it's not a very clear defined line. So just a nice sketched
line and follow the line on the outer line
to help you as a guide. Don't worry if it's not as
straight as you want it to be, but, um, as long as it
just represents that skin. And then I'll just at
the button just made a little bit of a I'm not
sure what it's called, but the end of the pair and
then at the PIP as well, just adding some shading to that because it's darker and
that will make it stand out. And then just the little
bit of a rim as well. So it looks like it's
inside the pair. And then I just draw
around the stem. Now there's not much shading
to this as you can see. So I'm just doing
a very faint line. Not too much. Um, and then I've just
blended that with my finger. This very faintly because
the in reports that the middle part of the
PR is not as dark, so I'm just doing a little bit. The top there. And that's it. There's your pin number two, panels, one compared to it. Then I'm going to show you how to do some leaves
in the next lesson.
5. Lesson 4: Drawing Leaf no. 1: Welcome to the next
lesson where I'm going to show you how to do
the first leaf. Again, you can still see those
circles inside this form. So we're just gonna
do the two circles, the large circle, circle and a smaller
circle on the top. And then this time
I'm just going to draw a line down the middle. That's where you
can see the vein of the middle vein of the leaf. I'll just go around
doing that fabric sketching down to the
bottom of that line. Going around those circles. It might go run the
inward parts as well. And then there's a little bit of a point to the top of this. I'll just add that
point and then go around doing that favorite
sketching around your circle. That's that. Then
you can add the, the end, the stem of
the leaf or the button. Then I'll just rub out all those excess
lines that I need. Then I start to draw
around the leaf. So you kinda get the hang
of the process here. Once you've understand
how it works, it becomes a lot more easier. Okay? So you can see there
are some veins in this leaf. So this will be nice for you to try and draw those
the way that you see it. So sketching again and
just do a very faint line, you don't need to
press down hard at all because these
are displaying. So don't stand out as
much to this faintly. To sketch towards
the end of the line, towards the outer line of
the leaf, very faintly. Then there's some other
veins as well to try and look at the image to
see where they are. And then I'm just going to do some shading as it did before. So pressing down hard and
then bringing it out. Now, you can do a lot more
shading them what I'm doing. But I'm just demonstrating
to you how, how it works. The simplest way. I'm just doing a very
faint shading here. You go onto the
other side as well. Then I'm using my finger
to just blend it in there. Then with the middle vein, I'm just going to press
down a little bit more. What to match? Go over the other veins. Because now that
I've shaded it and it's made the image
a lot darker. So then I need to make
those veins standout. So not too much again, just a little bit more. Not too. Don't press down
too much because then it will look too rainy. Stand out too much though. You just wanted to keep
it nice and bright. And that's it. And there you have your leaf brush up on
it, and that's it. I'll show you how to do the
next leaf in the next lesson.
6. Lesson 5: Drawing Leaf no. 2: Hello and welcome to this
lesson where I'm going to show you how to draw the next
leaf, the second leaf. Now, I'm doing it on
another piece of paper, but again, you can keep it to your sketch
book. That's fine. This leaf is a little
bit different, so I'm drawing a straight line and another line just
right beside it. And then I'm going to draw a line to the right for
this, the right leaf. This kind of weather. The middle vein would be. But trying to get back
curved look if you can, slightly curved and then
one slightly below. And you can go straight
and try and draw it. But if you find that
a bit too difficult, then what you can do is try and work where
the forms are in this. Now I can see that there
are two triangles. You could work with
two triangles, you could do circles
if you wanted to. But in this one I
can see triangles. So the best way to
do this is to draw a line down the middle of the line that
you've already drawn. Like say, it's going to look
a little bit like a kite. So you draw from the
bottom to each edge of the center line, like so. And then the same for the top
to the middle line there. And I do the same
for the other one, line in the middle. And then I draw a line from
the top to the middle. Same on the other side. And the same for the button. Okay, I've got two
little kites now. But with this now, you draw ring not
on the outside. You've drawn on the inside
because you want to keep that curve instead of
having a sharp point. So I'll show you
how you draw in on the inside, right to the end. And then the same
for the other one. Joint on the inside. And then same for the other one. You see where my hand is
sort of towards the top. It gives me a bit more
flexibility when I'm drawing. Again, don't worry if it's not perfect, It's
all about practice. You can do this as
many times as you'd like and then draw
a solid color. Rove out the inside. Or those lines that
you don't need. Keep the ones that
you need it out. You can start seeing
your leaf now. Oh, it looks starting
to look like leaf now. Kites. Then I go over
the lines that I need. So that vein in the middle. Then I go around it
to make it stand out. That's it. Now I'm just gonna do
a tiny bit of shading. This is to make it
stand out a little bit. Girlfriend, dark to light, using my finger to blend. So I've already doing
it very lightly on this one. They have it. I have all of my drawings done. So I've got my first pair here, then I've got my
leaves and my pair. So again, you can present
this how you like. But it would be lovely
to see your work in projects and resources. Tab this to see how
you've done and how. It's good to show your process. And don't be afraid
to show your work. We're all here to
support each other. So if you have any
more questions, I'd love to help you. I will be doing
some more drawings. So thank you again. And I'll see you soon.
7. End Notes: Thank you for joining
me in my class. I hope you've learned a lot. During this lesson. Again, you keep
practicing, keep drawing. So you can get to this
day if you wanted to. I'll be adding more
classes towards the summer where I'll
be showing you how to do some more joy technique and also shading, coloring, etc. Which then will add
extra elements to your service for
your own journey. Thanks again. Please leave a comment if you want to ask
anymore questions being put down, his help. And then also, if you complete the class and you
produce some drawing, please upload it
to the project and resources tab where I'd
love to see your work. Don't be afraid to show you
where it's just all part of the land and just be free
with it to suffer with it. So again, thank you again. And we'll see you see my other classes when
they are maybes and enjoy. Take care. Bye.
