Llamas are made of Cylinders (FREE CLASS) (Skillshare)

Offered by Skillshare,

Yes, it's true: Llamas are, in fact, made of cylinders. In this class, we'll learn how by understanding the parts that make up a cylinder and using them to draw our own fluffy llama friends. Grab your pencils and paper and let's get started!

Project Description
Let's draw some llamas! Using what we learned about cylinders, we will draw our own fluffy llama friends using light and shadow and lots and lots of curly wool. Remember to start with your largest simple shapes in the body and head before adding your legs, ears, and tail. This will help you keep the different parts from getting too big or too small compared to the rest of the body.
Can't wait to see your llamas in the project gallery!

Glazing is an amazing technique where you apply a transparent or semi-transparent layer of paint over another thoroughly dry layer of paint. It's wonderful for creating luminous colors, as well as water and lighting effects. I’ll show you how to mix your paint to prepare a glaze as well as practical applications for applying glazes to get luminous results that you couldn't otherwise achieve by using paint opaquely.
