HOW TO DRAW A VASE? INFORMATIONAL PROCESS
Hello everyone, greetings from Philippines! I am a 21 year old girl living in a countryside, blogging some of my lifestyle here. I also started to blog my illustration challenge just a month ago. But I'm only posting again today since then.
In this link, here is my first blog.
Day 1 & 2 of Daily Illustration Challenge
And this is now my third entry.
I collected illustrations of random home stuffs and decors and I made a lot of them already but for this entry, the Ikea Vase I found on Pinterest is my reference base.
I like this one and this is aesthetic, I love the shape and the design and that's what makes me want to draw.
So scroll down and I'm gonna walk you through my art process!
- This is my rough sketch and first I drew lines measuring the gap of the curves and the starting points of the outline's elements. I can use ruler with the straight lines and circle with the bent lines but with the irregular curve shapes, it is manually shaped.
- But I discovered that to get this fine line curves without ruler, there is a drawing tool called Bézier Curve and I use that when it comes to curves. Anyway I adjusted the body length and width of this vase cuz it was too small.
- So here is my color palette. First is for shadow, second the neutral color and the third one is for the highlight.
- These are my brushes complete package. Marker brush ~ outline, Pen fade ~ Initial painting, Airbrush trapezoid ~ Smooth blending
- Use pen fade for this~ assigning the shade of colors to the sketch for initial touch. I have learned here that saving at least three colors in your palette is essential to make a blending~ the neutral, shadow, and highlight.
- And I can't skip using Airbrush to make the color blending smoother, so voilaaa ~
What I discovered in ibispaint in this entry is...
• Using Bézier Curve for drawing curves.
• Draw lines locating the starting point and edges of the outline.
• I can also use liquify pen for manipulating shapes.
My key takeaway for this art study is...
• Having at least three colors in your palette is enough to make a blending.
This is all for this day and thank you guys for reading my art blog, goodbye and till next blog again.
