Greetings to all the members of bdcommunity@bdcommunity. It has been quite a ride here. I often feel obliged to stay and build my communication with you all. I try to present my art and engage with you all. In between it all, I try to stick to my expertise; art.

Today again, I was thinking that I have always shared my pieces without even knowing if any of you tried to replicate them. If you ever try to imitate my artworks, please feel free to tag me, I would love to see them. Even if anyone gets inspired by my piece, I don't expect high but still, tag me to let me know.

From childhood, I have been fond of art and I am happy that I could bring it to this now. My main focus for tonight is to present three very important parts of making an ART realistic or ALIVE. True, that with only these three you might not be able to make it too realistic but trust me, for beginners to professionals, this always works.

I myself keep an eye on the three things pretty earnestly. At first, one should be able to know what makes what. So as you can see, tinting is when more white is added to the hue. By hue, I mean the original color/pure color. Toning is when pure gray is added to the hue. You can also add pure white and pure black to form gray and then add that to it. Always be cautious about your measurement, a little here and there can change the entire color. Now, to shading; shading is when you add black hue to the original/pure color.

And, guess what, tinting and shading, together produces...TONE. Try it out, you will be left amazed. Try with one color, the results will be quite vivid and clear. The more you practise something, the more you become good at it.

This is for beginners, as professionals are already aware of it. No matter which platform you use, always know what you want. I have seen beginner artists who could not form anything because they knew only a little. I have also seen people who have an interest but due to a lack of knowledge about art, they are unable to form anything. For anything that you get interested in, one needs to gather enough knowledge before jumping into it.

I am talking from experience and from my learnings. If I am mistaken in few aspects, feel free to point it out. Try staying connected with me by following and commenting on my posts. If you want to see any specific type of artwork from me, feel free to share your opinion. Thank you all for your precious time. It means the most.
