SHADING
Learn to Draw with Dramatic Light & Shadow
Join over a million students who have learned to draw with Brent.
Join award winning instructor Brent Eviston, creator of the best selling Art and Science of Drawing series, in his most immersive, in-depth drawing experience yet. You'll join Brent in his studio where you'll experience some of the clearest, most effective drawing instruction available.
Shading: Learn to Draw with Dramatic Light and Shadow is the fourth and final course in The Drawing Laboratory. When we draw, we are not merely drawing the subject itself — we are drawing the effects of light on that subject. This course teaches you how to render three dimensional forms with dramatic light and shadow.
In Shading you'll learn:
- How to shade simple, three dimensional objects like spheres, cylinders and cubes
- How to organize values in your drawings and how to keep a clear division between light and shadow
- How to recognize and draw different kinds of shadows, including core shadows, reflected light and cast shadows
- How to draw a full range of values, from bright lights to rich darks
- A straightforward process for shading you can apply to any subject
- How to crosshatch and how to do shaded drawings on colored paper

Agnes B, student in Shading course
This class is a must for artists, students, anyone wanting to explore light values. I never explored the possiblities before this class and was literally (in the dark). My drawing has improved.
Tom M, student in Shading course
Brent's classes have taken me from an absolute drawing beginner to being able to apply shading to still-life pictures, something I never thought I'd be able to do. If you are new to drawing, I strongly recommend taking the other classes in this series first.
