Art Type -
Sketch Art

Materials Used -
• Sketchbook
• Sketch pencils
• Charcoal
• Subject
• Direction of the light arrangement
• Tissue paper

Tips -
• Sketching with a pencil can be imagination-based or implication based
• Know your pencil type before applying
• I tried to replicate the environment which I created physically in my kitchen, without the eggs
• Reality and imagination can always coexist if you want to
• Keep one subject and let the rest complement it
• AVOID SMUGGING, you wouldn't want this, so try using tissue paper in between your palm and sketch
• Know the different forms you can create, I have implied hatching
• Play with darkness and light according to the mood of the painting, or direction of light
• Plan ahead how you’ll project your edges, I used all four edges; thin, hard, lost & undefined
• Edges determine your value of the art; it plays a major role in sketching
• Shadow creation syncs with form creation and texture, defining depths, highs, and lows
• You may use a blending stick to blend or use your thumbs but I preferred keeping the effect
