In this lesson series instructor Sheldon Borenstein shows you how to work with a variety of drawing and painting media. You will learn how the general principles of art apply equally to all media and specifically how to work with each individual medium while employing the appropriate techniques. The Florentine technique is one way to describe the approach of using a toned paper which represents a middle value and then applying darks as well as heightening the drawing with white to create a full tonal range of value. Learn how to do this technique and you will be able to apply it to other media as well!
