En tant qu'artiste travaillant principalement à l’aide de nombreux supports traditionnels, j'ai relevé un défi unique. J'ai toujours peint des tableaux très expressifs, et je voulais apporter la même expressivité et la même spontanéité dans mes peintures numériques. Je ne voulais pas que mes peintures numériques aient un aspect ‘plastique’ typique.
Dans ce livre, vous n’apprendrez pas seulement les immenses possibilités que nous offrent les logiciels de peinture numérique en général et Procreate en particulier, mais aussi à peindre de manière libre et expressive. L'objectif est de peindre des œuvres intrigantes et accrocheuses que les observateurs aimeront regarder encore et encore.
Voici quelques outils et techniques que vous apprendrez dans ce livre :
-Les méthodes que j'emploie pour peindre de manière expressive.
-Pourquoi la peinture numérique ? Quelles sont les considérations à prendre en compte lorsque l'on commence le processus de peinture numérique ?
-La théorie des couleurs.
-Le concept des calques, l'utilisation efficace des calques dans une peinture numérique.

Êtes-vous un dessinateur débutant ? Ou êtes-vous un dessinateur expérimenté qui cherche à insuffler un peu de magie dans vos illustrations ?
Vous pensez que le livre d'instruction artistique est un moyen qui omet trop d'étapes dans l'explication des techniques d'illustration ?
Alors ce livre est pour vous.
Pourquoi combiner stylo, encres et aquarelle dans vos illustrations ? Et pourquoi utiliser du papier teinté ?
Le stylo et l'encre sont des outils idéaux pour créer des textures et des contrastes époustouflants dans les illustrations.
La peinture à l'aquarelle est attrayante pour les effets charmants qu'elle crée, mais elle est réputée pour son imprévisibilité.
Le papier teinté confère un charme surréaliste aux esquisses réalisées au stylo, à l'encre et à l'aquarelle. Un papier teinté peut être utilisé pour créer un effet vintage ou pour créer des effets de couleur vifs et inattendus.
Qu'allez-vous apprendre dans ce livre ?
- Comprendre les formes et les valeurs.
- Théorie des couleurs - couleurs complémentaires, couleurs chaudes et froides.
- Composition et techniques de coloration.
Bien sûr, le véritable apprentissage se fait par la pratique, pas seulement par la lecture.
Nous allons donc mettre en œuvre toutes les techniques d'ombrage et les techniques de pinceau dans dix démonstrations étape par étape.
Chaque démonstration vous apprendra à réaliser l'esquisse initiale au crayon, le travail au trait à l'aide de stylos et la mise en couleur.
Les dix démonstrations étape par étape couvriront les sujets suivants :
La coccinelle
Nous commencerons nos exercices en peignant une belle coccinelle sur du papier brun. Il s'agit d'un exercice simple où nous apprendrons à créer un effet de brillance en utilisant de la peinture blanche.
