In this video lesson, world-famous artist and instructor Glenn Vilppu demonstrates an approach to drawing the figure into an even tone. You will learn how to first lay down a tone on the paper, then draw into that tone with two colors, pull out the lights using a kneaded eraser, and finalize the drawing using a combination of techniques. Your end result will be a beautiful drawing with strong tonal range and color dynamics.
