Tea & Biscuits: Ellipses In Perspective (L3, 1h 31m)

  • Course
  • 15 Lessons

In this class we focus on drawing ellipses with a sense of perspective. Using a subject that is full of ellipses, we'll work on understanding the size and angle of each ellipse before building shading to create realistic form and reflections.

You'll learn:

  • Perspective as it relates to ellipses and sketching

  • Proportion techniques including negative space

  • Effective shading techniques

Suitable for intermediate level students who are comfortable with basic sketching, shading and ellipses.
