Learn to paint wildlife - Step-by-Step Tutorial

2009-07-01T15:47:00.002+01:00

Here is a quick learn to paint wildlife tutorial - Painting a Lion's eye

It shows very briefly my wildlife painting techniques - hope some find it useful

----------------------------------------------------------------

Ok 1st image shows the pencil outlines plus the very initial scrubbing in of some colour - burnt sienna and burnt umber / black

This 2nd image shows the continuation of the blocking in, it's a searching time ie I am constantly squinting my eyes, looking at the reference for the major shapes and tones and also colours. Constantly comparing one part to the next.

Everything is blocked in now (below).

Here I am just re-establishing the darks and touching up areas. But notice how the eye still looks lifeless at this point.

Just the beginnings of a highlight and already there is some life starting.

Here I have added more highlight, remember the brightest white dot is the sun so the lighter areas is the reflection of the blue sky, I have therefore made the highlight a light blue, not white. The sunlight that hits the eye also travels through the eye, so the area directly below the highlight is also lighter.

If you enjoyed this demo then don't forget there are lots more on my tutorial site - www.jasonmorgan.co.uk

Learn To Paint Wildlife

2009-02-11T10:48:00.000Z

Many of you visiting this new blog for the 1st time will already know me from my other sites - My Wildlife Art Gallery - My Learn to Paint Wildlife Art site - or my Wildlife Art Blog. So why the need for another online presence???

Well I thought it might be cool to have an area that is specifically dedicated to the teaching and learning side of art - we are all learning all the time, I know I learn something new every time I pick up my brush - and that is just how it should be. So I though - "why not learn together?" it's the exact statement that made me design my 1st website on painting 10 years or so ago - how time flies!

Well to start off with this 1st post I thought I had better point you to what I have available at the moment regarding Learning to Paint - OK...so you will find lots of FREE tutorials on this page of my site - FREE Tutorials

If you want to go in to more details on everything from selecting brushes and paints, to advanced fur techniques then you might be interested in my Tutorial CD / E-book

If you would like to see more of my artwork - perhaps order a limited edition print or even an original, then my online gallery is the place to go
