Textures of old books, patterns on interior items, designs of once modern technologies...
Imagine, many years ago, someone created them just as carefully,
how we look and draw them now!
I again invite you to travel with me!
And this time — to the past ...
Would you like to:
Take a break from everyday life and enjoy the aesthetics of the old days?
Visit different eras, drawing household items of that time?
Learn to draw textures of different materials?
Start noticing the beauty of the things around you?
I invite you to step into the watercolor time machine!
Content
Lesson 1. Magic door.
It all starts with a door... Or even with a patterned doorknob. How old is it? What's behind this door? It seems like something mysterious and kind, almost fairy tale...
Features of the lesson:
In this lesson, you will learn how to convey the charming shabbiness of old objects. Draw wood and rust textures.
Lesson 2. Good old books.
Does everyone have a shelf with favorite books that were read more than once? Together we will draw wise and kind books in old bindings. Such drawing will give you real pleasure!
Features of the lesson:
We will analyze in detail the construction of the drawing, talk a little about perspective. You will learn how to use good contrasting tone and color combinations for more expressiveness.
Lesson 3. Retro camera.
The lens of this retro camera has seen a lot... It captured thousands of happy faces and beautiful travel moments. And now we will sketch it!
Features of the lesson:
In this lesson, you will learn how to render soft lighting, paint textures of metal, leather and wood.
Lesson 4. Sewing machine.
I think everyone tried to sew on a Singer...
Sometimes it was successful and sometimes not, but nevertheless, this machine helped out a lot, and in skillful hands created the best outfits for us...
