Drawing with Overlap, Negative Shapes (tutorial)

[@isabelpadilla3789]

I really really love your style, not only in art and watercolors but the way you do your videos and run your blog. I've been truly inspired by many of artworks and you are the one I trust whenever I need a tip or a review on a product. Your blog is so profesional and detailed, thank you for always making great content. 💮

Heard that

[@MorriganSlayde]

You really make understanding object relationships really easy ✌🏼

[@susanbradford4543]

Excellent tutorial. Chairs and tables can be challenging and tedious. Breaking them down into shapes as you do makes them easier.

[@jiminseyesmile5781]

I love your art style

[@teohyc]

Thanks :-)

[@EstudioBrigitArte]

Thank you for the tutorial, Teoh, it’s a hard scene to draw, I mean all of those legs and shadows 👏 you make it seem easy .

[@fstgeorge]

Thank you for sharing this video of your process!

[@zimrianispresent8123]

I wish I could share with you my progress with watercolor because of your videos! Love it love it love it. You're like my secret weapon

[@blackshadowarts4540]

I love the way you draw! Such a cool style! 😄

[@lynn_thinks]

Thank you, Teoh. Excellent instruction as always. I’m grateful for the reminder that it takes time and patience to do proportional representational work. Many thanks. 👍🏽👍🏽🎨🖌

[@aoutsky]

Thanks for this video, Teoh! Hope you do more tutorials in the future. You're a great teacher!

[@carlnygren3448]

So called negative shapes has always been considered by all the great artist. Cezanne talks about it. Leonardo da Vinci also. Negative shapes can give a picture som extra strenght. Good lesson Teoh.

[@heberdua]

I really enjoy your tutorials :) Thank you !

[@teohyc]

Welcome :-)

[@mrigankach]

I liked this tutorial. This explains a lot. Thanks.

[@PuppetMaster8707]

I have many things to improve on drawing like hands, It's funny how we have hands but it is very difficult to draw them

[@teohyc]

Practise drawing from life. Practise so often that you can draw them subconsciously

[@slash.9882]

Great tutorial! What ink are you using? I'm looking for something waterproof for a fountain pen.

[@ruchi7368]

I like it 💕

[@lynettedouville8826]

You're amazing, Teoh! Are these three colors Daniel Smith paints?

[@teohyc]

Yes

[@hrishikeshnath6039]

Hey what’s the best alternative dark ink for pentel brush pens

[@ganarseunacre]

Hola Teoh. What kind of pen are you using for this work exactly? Its no a fineliner, I think. Thanks for your theachings. Grettings from Spain.

[@teohyc]

It's a Pelikan M200 fountain pen with Fine nib

[@ganarseunacre]

@@teohyc thanks!!

[@callmekite]

Did you purposefully use more red (for the orange mixture) under the chairs as a color reflection? Or was it just a whimsical artistic choice? Thanks so much for this Teoh I plan to become a patron!

[@teohyc]

It's just an artistic choice :-)

[@barolchan5084]

Hello Teoh! I have bought a 12 color Rembrandt watercolor boxset with Cadmium Yellow , Cadmium Yellow D and Cadmium Red M, and also with Perm. madder , Permanent and Cobalt green. I have found difficulty to use them as i am a beginner. i have been watching your tutorials and knowing that those colors i just mentioned are not your favorite choices. Would you please be so kind to give some tips or demo of using Cadmium Color? ( sorry for my bad English...)

[@teohyc]

Cadmium colours are opaque and when mixed with other colours will make the mixture opaque. Cadmium colours are best used on their own. One use is to cover other colours beneath because of its opacity. For example, when painting cars, you can use red at the last stage to add the rear lights. Or you can paint a traffic light stand with black, and add a Cadmium Yellow or Red to suggest the lights.

[@barolchan5084]

@@teohyc Thank you so much!!! I'm quite disappointed that both of my Rembrandt and Winsor & Newton Boxset are full of Cadmium colours... Is there any reason of this preference?

[@teohyc]

@@barolchan5084 I'm not sure why they want to include Cadmium colours

[@bashz.k222]

[@isabellecade277]

You did not choose something easy, I do not like to draw too much chairs and tables because of the forest of paws... Often the rendering is not pretty. Bravo for this tutorial !

[@teohyc]

A bunch of chairs is indeed daunting to draw 😂
