Art Tips: Creating texture in Pencil II

Here is a small study of a shed door to implement the pencil strokes:

1. Outline the shape of the roof, opening and doorway.  No need to be too perfect.  We are using the strokes to create some of the age and character.



2.  Draw in the tiles on the roof and outline the placement of shadows, stones and the panelling of the door.
3. Now, using a 2b and 5b, start by shading in your dark areas, hatching (6) across the tiles inside the shed and on the door (1) & (3).  The stones and wall are a combination of (2), (4), (5), (6) and (8) remembering that the shadows are cast downward so under the stones etc.



For grass, use strokes (1), (3) and (7).
Until next time, Phelim
