I think I'm finally getting the hang of the whole contour/shading thing!😊 -
I was confused by the difference between contouring and shading, and all my drawings kept ending up heavy and dark because I was trying to convey too much I think. I watched a couple of cool YouTube videos by Alphonso Dunn and really liked the starkness of his drawings. I tried to apply some of what I learned here in a pencil drawing. I think it works especially because the flower itself is a simple subject. Doesn't work so well on oak leaves (results not shown lol).
