How to draw water ( sea ) Yeah, I know, lately I can not keep pace with the tutorials, but fortunately soon someone will come to my rescue! Today I want to talk about WATER. I was thinking of dividing the tutorial into two parts: the first, how to make water from the outside, for example, to represent seas, lakes, waves, while the second will analyze the close effects and how the light refines on objects through the water. So let's start with a standard color chart, blue, in my case composed of B00, B02, BG05 and BG07. At some point I went from B to BG because I like to have a green or violet note when I do the water. The concept is based on two levels of work, a bit like the tutorial of wood texture: first a base, in the case of water, shaded from light to darker to deepen, and then the volumes given by the ripples of the waves on the water.

The rule of thirds is a proven way to build a good composition, regardless of your object What is its use? The rule says: if you divide any composition on a third by vertical and horizontal lines, and then place the main elements along these lines or at their intersection, the image will be as interesting and dynamic as possible. Artists use this rule mainly for landscapes, but in fact it works great and with still life, and with figures of a person and even with portraits. The rule of thirds is a clear instruction on the location of focal points. Their room at the intersections of any of the 9 rectangles will make the composition balanced and attractive. 1. Origins The rule of the third originated in the canvases of the Renaissance. Now it is more known as the reception of photographers. In the picture of Valentin de Boulogne it is clear that the faces of the main characters are located along the upper dividing line, creating dynamics. 2. Landscapes It is in their creation ...
