Description
If you love that woodblock engraving style of drawing, then in these lessons, I break down the techniques into a few steps.
Starting with examples of masterpieces that made that style so memorable, followed by practice exercises, and then we'll work on a Cat & Chicken project together step-by-step.
There's very little drawing in the lessons; the focus is all on pen and ink.
What You'll Learn
Engraving is a printmaking process where instruments are used to carve an illustration onto wood or a steel plate; the ink is then transferred into the grooves and onto paper.
You'll learn more about the key characteristics of that style. You'll then practice exercises that break down each characteristic into a technique that mimics the effects of engraving.
You'll be able to apply these techniques directly to ink an illustration. Your exercise sheet will become a guideline to help you build the final project in progressive stages.
Why Take This Course
I created this Cat & Chicken design for us because it seems like a lot of details, but it's really just a bunch of lines that thin and swell in a specific way. So, it's easier than it looks once you understand the concept of that inking style.
You'll get fresh ideas on the type of exercises that help you develop hand control. With better hand control, you'll gain confidence with your inking tools.
The principles of this engraving style technique can be applied to other illustration styles, and the skills learned can be carried forward to your other art projects.
