Introduction

Tulips are cup-shaped flowers. They have six petal-like structures, but only three of the structures are true petals. Tulips are composed of three outer sepals, which were the outer cover of the bud, and three inner petals, which are true petals. Knowing botanical structure helps create scientifically accurate illustration, because the two parts may have slightly different coloration, shape, and texture.

Step 1

With bullet-pointed 2H or H pencil, measure the outer dimensions of the tulip and draw a rectangle. Then measure the tips of three sepals and connect them in a triangle. Do the same with three inner petals. By examining the angles and crossings of the triangles, confirm whether their placements are correct or not. Now, sketch in the sepals and petals focusing on accurate position and proportion.

Step 2

With a pointed 2H, and using substantial pressure, draw a detailed shape of each part. For foreshortened shapes, add some shadow early on, which helps to better show the form. Carefully observe any tiny vein lines and their direction on the petals and sepals and mark them. They will make the curves look organic and realistic. After the final lines are drawn, erase the initial lines.

Step 3

Trace the drawing onto good-quality paper if necessary. Now, add shadow on the inside (concave side) of the petals and sepals. There are two concave shapes created by the inner petals and outer sepals. Observe carefully where the darkest shadow occurs.

Step 4

With a pointed pencil, draw vein lines following the curvature. The fine lines might not be very visible when the drawing is finished, but they enhance its formation. By doing so, details and textures can be added as well.

Step 5

Add shadow on the outside (convex side) of petals and sepals. By separating the shading process on concave and convex parts, it becomes clear how forms affect light and shadow. Hence, the drawing will be more accurate and logical.

Step 6

Now refine the gradation of the shadows, refine the clean edges, and deepen the dark shadows. Using an eraser and a light touch, recover reflected light, then add any finishing touches.

User questions & answers

Question:	Should my writing be fuzzy?? I see others say the writing is clear. Mine is definitely fuzzy. I ordered the flowers, mushrooms and insects
Answer:	My writing is clear & legible.
Question:	Is the background white white or does it have a bit of color to it
Answer:	A bit of color- not white white !! But I thought it was on paper not this fabric but next time I guess- cool!!
Question:	Should my writing be fuzzy?? I see others say the writing is clear. Mine is definitely fuzzy. I ordered the flowers, mushrooms and insects
Answer:	I ordered the mushroom poster and I found the print quality to be poor. I was also expecting it to be printed on paper but the feel was more like vinyl. When I inquired with the seller, I was told it was printed on silk. I was not happy with the product at all. When I requested a return, the seller offered to negotiate the price. Seemed ridiculous to return something 1/2 way around the world. I’m sure I’ll use it for something, just not as a print on my wall.
Question:	Is it in latin and french? or does it include english names
Answer:	English

The Ancient Art of Figure Drawing

Perhaps there is no other subject in art that is more intimate or rewarding than figure drawing. From the earliest cave paintings to stunning artwork by Michelangelo, the human fascination with capturing our likeness in two-dimensional form spans thousands and thousands of years. Today, it remains one of the most popular subjects in art education.

Featuring more than 150 photo references showcasing a wide variety of poses – from traditional stances to figures in action and children at play – you can develop your skills for hours upon hours with no need for a model. Practice is the key to success, and with The Complete Book of Poses for Artists, you’ll have more than enough material to master the art of drawing people.

Rendering Age

Children’s proportions are different than those of adults: Young children have rounder faces with larger eyes that are spaced farther apart. As a child ages, the shape of the face elongates, altering the proportions.

Suggesting Movement

When drawing the figure in any pose, one of the most important things to account for is the body’s center of gravity. Graceful flow lines help establish this elegant gesture. Note how the center of balance falls directly from the pit of the neck between the ballerina’s feet, anchoring her to the floor.

Conveying Emotion

Expressive poses often come down to the eyes. This woman’s detailed eyes show great surprise that borders on shock and are the clear focus of this drawing. The loosely rendered remaining features help keep the focus where it belongs.

Creating Engaging Compositions

A good composition draws in the viewer’s eye and points it to the most important aspects of the drawing. In this drawing, overlapping the figures slightly creates a more unified mass, preventing any awkward negative space between the figures. Keep this in mind as you position your models.

The Complete Book of Series
