Learning basic drawing skills is an important part of being a designer and creator. Michelangelo and Da Vinci are some of the old masters of drawing and, after studying their work, the detail and depth that they create from shading and shaping is incredible, and highlights to me that unfortunately I have a long way to go! They are also extremely talented in other mediums of art such as painting and sculpture, with Michelangelo creating one of the most famous paintings in the world which is located on the roof in the Sistine chapel.
During the lesson we were working on basic shaping and shading and learning basic skills like how to hold the pencil. Despite studying A Level Art, I learnt from this lesson that I am still lacking in some of the basic skills and from this exercise it is clear that I need to continue to practise.
