How to do realistic drawing using charcoal pencils.

It is very easy to draw with charcoal pencils.But when it comes to make that painting realistic or hyper-realistic then we start thinking about that, "How do I make my painting look photo realistic"
There is only one solution of that.That is to gain a proper knowledge about charcoal painting.
Today I will share with you some of my experience that I have gained from my previous 10 years.
So let's start............

 First of all you have to have a proper knowledge about light and shadow.It is the key skill that you have to learn to draw realistic paintings using any medium.For that you have to observe nature. Its quiet easy. Nature is the real teacher for any artist.What you have to do is, just look at a tree in the sunlight, and imagine and also try to think the light and shadow effect on it.Then draw that tree and put light and shadow to it with all your knowledge.By practising this you will be able to get a clear scene about light shading.

 Next come to perspective. This thing is very easy if you understand this.I will give  a detail information about perspective on my next article.

 here I am sharing a painting that I have drawn using charcoal pencils.

In this painting I used these under written materials.......

-hard charcoal 
-soft charcoal
-vine charcoal
for blending I have used -blending stump and tissue paper for bigger places and for short places I have used- cotton buds.
for erasing I have used -pencil eraser and -kneaded eraser.
and I have drawn it on a -canvas paper..

HOPE YOU LIKE IT.

All about perspective.Very easy to learn.Step by step...

Hi guys,today I am back with another interesting topic that is about perspective. Perspective is very important topic to learn.It is the most important thing to know about for realism. So let's start...... First of all let me give you a clear scene about " What is perspective?" .....In simple statement, we  see a person who is in front of us bigger than the person who stands far away from me..This is actually called perspective.. OK, let's see if we draw a figure then what will be the proportions. here as you can see , I have given a male figure proportion..  This image actually gives a sense of  perspective.It describes that the size of things get smaller with the increase of distance. Here I am giving some images that will make it easy to learn.    With the help of perspective you can also make 3d paintings,with using point perspective. Now you might be thinking what is point perspective. So here it is,...... There are two points means two ax...

Elephant realistic pencil drawing

Elephant realistic pencil drawing Here I will explain you how you can draw a realistic drawing of elephants very easily. Checkout this video.... First of all lets talk about the materials I have used in this drawing. I have used very basic pencils and erasers. For pencils I have used graphite pencils, such as hb, 2b, 4b, 6b and 10b. I like to use mechanical pencils very much.. So, here also I have used mechanical pencils( 0.5mm) with 2b lead in it, and 0.9mm also. To make it look more realistic you have to erase for fine textures. I have done the same. For erasing I've used kneaded eraser, for fine lines and standard eraser for larger areas. I have used some smooth paper to have a fine texture in it. I have used smooth thik (150gsm) cartreez sheet. Because I feel like I am comfortable with it. And now lets talk about the blending part. For blending I have used cottons ( for larger areas)  and blending stumps ( for smaller areas). *In this type of drawing y...
