      @irlporygon-z6929 5 лет назад +36

      well i mean there's perfectly good reasons to think that, since all the lineart is _darker_ it looks like there's more ambient occlusion on that side of the face, and of course that would only occur in a shadow. trying to make the right side look like a shadow and still preserving the idea that there is generally less visual information in areas of shadow, while using only lineart with no other separation of values, might require a more stylized approach with larger shapes of solid black. there's probably other methods for it. either way, the way it was depicted just doesn't strongly convey that.

  • @U.Inferno

    In the middle of your less details in shadows talk I realized something and dug through my portfolio to find one of my better pieces of art, a charcoal figure drawing. When I drew it our professor gave us the limit on only working with a single value of shadows, let the entire shadow be complete darkness and try to define the figure from there. Looking at it now, I realize that's why I consider it one of my better pieces. It's a very simple piece, but it does a lot with very little

  • @salti3155
    @salti3155 2 года назад +82

    something I love to do with shadows is use as many colors as possible. blues and violets as the darkest, reds greens and oranges as the mid tones, and pale pinks, yellows, and some hints of white as my full light. makes for a fun effect (but I prefer it in sunlit pieces.)

    00:18 🖌️ Focusing on detail in shadows: Less detail in shadow areas creates a more painterly and adaptive effect, enhancing visual aspects like lighting interplay and tones.
    03:30 🎨 Shapes in shadows: Treat shadows as design elements, creating simplified and appealing shapes. Combine and simplify shadow shapes for a cohesive look.
    08:52 🌈 Shadow color and ambient light: Shadow color should reflect the ambient color of the environment, considering bounce light for a realistic portrayal. Avoid using dull grey shadows.

    Wow. It's something I've never thought about. Even when at 0:43 you asked which side is in shadow I interpreted it that way that less detailed part of the head is overexposed, just like here - 3:23.
    To be honest, I'm so happy I live in the era of me being able to get such valuable information so easily. This would be an extremely brave dream of an artist that lived even 100 years ago - "hey, this would be cool if I could write something down and many skilled people would want to help me to do it, for free."

    Another tip for outdoor shadows: the longer the shadow, the more blue it should be.
    When the sun is overhead, the color temperature will be around 5600 degrees Kelvin (K). When the sun is on the horizon, the direct sunlight will go down to around 4200K (almost as amber as incandescent lighting) but the shadows will shoot up to around 9500K, which is nearly pure blue.

    I really needed this, I find myself getting caught up with technical accuracy for shadows but it's both easier and more fun to try and take aesthetic appeal into account for them while getting enough accuracy so it doesn't look off.

    Yes! I am so glad you replied to my comment on another video so I have discovered your videos! I want to incorporate your wisdom into cake design and custom chocolate designs! Also, respect for incorporating psychophysics (dark vision) into art, bravo!

    This is what I needed. A lot of times when people try to explain shading they go just by "shade the areas in which there isn't any light".

    this was so helpful! I had a college professor who taught us that the shadow color should always be the opposite of the light color, and trying to follow and rationalize that concept screwed me up for years .

  • @greentea4439

    Can you do a video on finding ambient light? Most rooms and reference photos I find are not completely red or completely green ambient lighting, and the subjects I would like to paint aren't blank white cubes and spheres so how do I apply this concept to more detailed and complex objects with various colors?
