Every time you have a chance to vacations to the country, don't forget to bring your sketch book, and your drawing tools. It's many beautiful and interesting landscapes, too bad if you miss all the chance. You can memorize what you see. Started to make a few sketches to find the best landscapes. Drawing the whole landscapes, don't to much worried about the details. In addition to photos, you can save the places to visit in the sketch image You can start by looking for objects that are open views.Make some rough sketches to adjust image composition. Draw a whole, avoid to want to draw in detail. Consider the image objects that want you to enter and remove it into a sketch. You will find different types of trees, hills, mountains, sungsi, houses, fields, and others. Everything can be the object of an interesting picture. The sky and clouds are one part of the scenery, because it is still note the weather, movement and form clouds.

Sketch a lot and do it quickly so that you can draw a whole.
In this exercise my views use 2B pencil to make a rough sketch.
I draw a whole hedge of trees, and a stretch of rice fields that create the space.
I use 2B pencil for shading areas rice field and put pressure pencil different fields to create texture.
Shading the hills and leafy trees I using 4B pencil so as to produce a dark shading.
I do not pay attention to detail tree, which is important how the trees cover the hills,
and there are hillside areas that are not covered by trees,my shading with pencil B. See how
I use a variety of shading, to rice field. I use vertical hatching, while areas hills with diagonal hatching.

Behind hills, tranquil clouds blend with the landscape surrounding areas, I use a 2H pencil.

Prepare for Drawing With Pencil

After you choose pencil, that suits with you. You must have a knowledge about drawing paper, because drawing paper, will affecting your drawing quality. Paper has many sizes begin from A0 until A6, the biggest size paper is A0 and the smallest A6, but usually you will find drawing paper that sold in the shop has the size A2 until A5. As beginner, I recommend it is better if you choose drawing paper size between A3 until A5, because it is not to big and you can bring anywhere you likes. And you can practice anytime you want. But if you buy drawing paper in A1-A2 sizes, you can divide the paper become A3-A5 size. The paper price start from the cheapest until the expensive, even more expensive than the pencil prices. Imported paper drawing very expensive, but you can buy it per piece. If you have limited budget there are few paper drawing that cheap and it is enough for you who start to learn to draw. I recommend to buy Canson, Concorde, Kiky, and Lyra. They are also produce sketch books, so it is easy for you to keep your drawings. And you can see the progress of your drawing process.

The weight of the drawing paper are variations, there are 70 gr- 300 gr. The slimmest is 70 gr and the thickness is 300 gr. But usually you can find easily drawing paper with the weight 70 gr -230 gr. The more thickness the drawing paper it is better. The texture of the drawing papers it depends with the weight and trademark. I like better a little rough in the paper surface because it is more easy when make line.There are many color papers, you can try a different paper color. It is very important to choose the drawing paper, and if you have a chance to buy imported paper, than try it, and see the difference. Choose drawing paper adjust with your budget and your need. The drawing that you make can show your character and personality. So choose paper can also help you to express your feeling and character. The drawing tools that you need besides papers there are sharpener and eraser. If you want to sharp pencil, you can use blade cutter, manual sharpener or mechanic sharpener. I rather to choose blade cutter because I can sharp the pencil with easy. Sometimes using manual or mechanic sharpener for soft pencil it is very sensitives because it is easily to broke. Soft pencil and hard pencil have different sharpness thin and thick lines.

Eraser has many kinds shapes, colors, and trademarks. It is better if you choose eraser for drawings. Usually the color are black and white. As beginner don't be afraid to make a lot of mistakes. So don't often to use eraser, just use it if really needed. Eraser will help you to makes light area.

After your drawing with pencil, you can protect your drawing
Pencil drawings that use the media usually will very quickly fade if not protected. There are several ways to remain protected image is your image with a fixative spray. Only the price of a bottle of fixative quite expensive as other options You can buy PYLOX transparent color. How to inject the image with a spray fixative or PYLOX the paper in a state of standing position, do it from a distance of 20 cm min. Spray a thin layer, then wait until dry and do it repeatedly.Works that use paper media must also be treated as easily folded, torn, paper color to yellow and moldy. Keep your work in the room where the temperature is not too moist and free from dust.

Sketch book that you will findin the bookstore, the price is affordable and can betaken anywhere.

Various start drawing paperof different sizes between the A0-A6,thickness of paper between 70gr-300gr,and color paper.

Knife charter, erasers, and pencil sharpenerassist in the process of your drawing.

When you draw with paperA3, A2, and A1 or larger paper,sometimes like to roll up the paper.So you can avoid the paperroll up when you're drawing,way is put the paper on wood boardthen use the duct tape around the edges of the paperpaper and then on each end-resistant paperwith tacks. It also keepsnot bent and torn paper.

How to Draw Many Textures

2008-12-23T20:11:00.004+07:00

Any object that is around you definitely have diverse textures. The texture that you find depends on the material that forms the texture of the material. Just by looking, you already can feel the texture of an object, but with the sharpness of your senses to feel it more increases. You are more able to feel the texture of the object. The texture of the wood surface, of course, differ with fabric surface texture or texture objects made of plastic. When you draw an object, not enough just to see the object but it would be better if you hold it and feel it. That way you have feelings and understanding of the existence of the object you are drawing.In this exercise you will learn to create texture shading. Previously look for objects around you are interesting textures such as wood, glass, fabric, and so forth. Then touch the surface of all these things and feel the difference.After that make a few lines of the box size and the number is free up to you. Then try the first complete single line box with a variety of shading without seeing an object. You will understand that regardless of any object you can create a variety of textures from different hatching.After that see and touch the texture of various objects. Move the texture you see in the form of shading to the line of other boxes. I'm sure you'll find more interesting texture to your images.In order for exercise to make it more interesting texture shading.Make a composition of basic shapes as shown below. Draw a sketch of the composition of many basic shapes and do not hesitate to spend your idea.I drew some sketches of the composition of basic shapes. After that I choose the best basic sketch. Then I started shading and combining with various shading texture on the composition sketch the basic shape.You can see the results as shown above, although using different shading texture, the picture above shows the unity of composition.This exercise will hone your sensitivity to understand an object which has distinctive features interesting texture, like the texture of wood, fur, metal, glass, and others. So you can display the character and texture of the object you are drawing on paper.

A variety of textures that can be you find around your home.

Introducing Pensil as Drawing Media

2008-12-23T18:12:00.001+07:00

Pencil is one of the media images of cheap, easy to find, easy to use and can be taken anywhere. You do not need to spend a lot of money to buy it, also no need to special stores that sell painting tools because in ordinary shops are also available lots. And most fun of the pencil is very lightweight and can put in your pocket.Pencil it seems only produce monochrome color (black and white) that is not interesting. Therefore, many beginners do not start learning to master pencil first, and usually want to directly learn to use watercolors and oil paints. And if you want more control of watercolors and oil paints, as a beginner you should have frequent practice sketching with a pencil. Keluarkanlah all the capabilities of the pencil and you'll discover the wonders of your images.

Before you begin to learn to draw with pencil media you should know better about the pencil. Type any pencil variety of brands, sizes, and price. Select and buy pencils also need to know how.But most importantly choose a pencil that match your personality.The most common size of a pencil sized between 9H until 9b.Usually a pencil that you use most often to write the size of HB and 2B. From a pencil hardness of 2 types of split pencils and pencils hard soft. Hard pencils are marked with H. Soft pencil is marked with B.H-9H pencil size to produce a thin line of characters commonly used for sketching and shading the light. Pencil B-9b produces character, and thick lines are usually used for shading the dark areas.

We recommend that you try to advance a variety of sizes and types of 9H-9b pencil so you know which is more suitable to your nature.In general all pencil affordable prices, so if you have limited funds so choose some pencils only, which is important there is a hard H pencils and a soft pencil B. It does not have all the size of a pencil you buy.There are various brands of pencil drawings that you can try like Faber Castell, Lyra, and Staedtler. Brand is producing various sizes and types of pencils. 2B pencil size different brands have different quality pencil character as well.I also found using only one type of course for example pencil 2B pencil. Then I give a stronger pressure when the shading on the paper, the 2B pencil shading to produce the same quality with 4B pencil.

I prefer to use a pencil between 2B, 4B and 6B. When he started to make preliminary sketches, I prefer to use a 2B because the software so it can produce a more expressive lines, but there is also prefer the 2H to make preliminary sketches because it produces a thinner line.If you have found the size of a pencil that is more suited to the nature of the drawing you will feel more comfortable you can produce various kinds of shading with a pencil techniques.

I use two ways of holding a pencil:1. Hold the pencil like writing, it is ideal if you want to produce detailed images.2. Hold the pencil between your thumb above and 4 fingers underneath, like this is very good technique to make the bold lines and even better to relax your hands.Giving a different pressure when holding a pencil also produce different shading. The stronger you are putting pressure generated so hatching thick otherwise if you put pressure on weak then the resulting thin hatching.

Based on my experience when I first drawing with pencil, I feel if you hand a bit stiff. This can be seen on-line character I made. The line will be stiff, disjointed, and there are feeling the urge to frequently use the eraser.

If you are first time to begin drawing with pencil, chances are you make any line look stiff and disjointed lines. This problem may disappear slowly if you often practice and your hand feels weak in generating the line. Mistakes are a beginner usually too worried about whether the picture is good or not and whether its wrong or right image. Usually beginners are afraid to make a line over and over again and always want to use the eraser. We recommend that you remove the fear to make mistakes and do not use the eraser advanceAs a beginner you notice is that important when you draw a process rather than results. So be brave to draw the line!

Brave to Draw Lines

Do you remember when I first learned to write? Surely you remember that the letters you have written the result is very stiff and not tidy. So did the first time when you start drawing, the hand will feel stiff. In order for the hand does not cramp you can start the exercises make the line without a stop bit.Take some A4 paper, and start you make a straight vertical line, remember you can not even lift a pencil. Try a vertical line that you create remain straight. If there is a line that you make are not straight leave it alone, not to stop. When finished making a vertical line, then use another paper to create horizontal and diagonal lines. Do this exercise over and over again until you are good at making straight lines vertical, horizontal, and diagonal. After practicing on paper A4 try making a straight line vertical, horizontal, and diagonal-A2, A3 paper. The purpose of this exercise you will learn to make a straight line without fear and master the field of paper that you want the image.After the workout makes a straight line without stopping. You can continue to the next exercise. This exercise also makes a line without stopping and without lifting the pencil once. Take the A4 paper, then you make the lines without stopping so as to form such a rectangle. Do it again and again resulting in the accumulation lines and rectangular shapes.Next draw other straight lines so as to form like a triangle. Look at the top left image repetition and accumulation of experience that lines like there is movement. Try to find forms other than rectangles and triangles. This exercise will make you more willing to draw a line, and learn to create expressive lines.The next exercise to make basic shapes of triangles, cylinders, boxes, blocks, and so forth. Draw triangle shapes pyramid, cylinder, cube, etc. without considering the proportion doing so repeatedly occur buildup forms.All objects that you have a structure drawing basic shapes like cylinders, cubes and so forth. This exercise will also help you dare to draw a line and began to draw various kinds of objects without worrying proportions and anatomy of the object.Look around you and look for simple objects such as cups, bottles, jars, and so forth. In this exercise you are still not allowed to lift a pencil. Begin to draw your attention to the proportions of the bottle without the bottle itself. Look like the picture above this.Hilangkanlah fear you whether it is appropriate in their original bottle or not? This exercise will make you more willing to draw an object that is very helpful forrelax your hands. Without realizing it you generate rigid lines begin to disappear.Look for natural objects of other objects is more complex than the bottles and glasses. Then like the previous exercise do it with the same technique.All this exercise helps you learn to draw without the burden and wondering if the picture is true or false? So you will not experience difficulties in the next exercise.

Learning to draw vertical lines free,horizontal, and diagonal without stopping.

Draw a line free form boxes,
circles, triangles, without stopping
resulting in repetition and accumulation.

How to Draw Gradation

2008-12-23T04:56:00.001+07:00

Mastering the technique of shading and gradation is one of the basic techniques of drawing with pencil. Shading gradation will help the sharpness of your eyes to know the level of intensity of light so that it can see light and dark areas of an object. Exercise shading gradation is also helpful when you create a shadow of an object.Practicing gradation shading technique you can start by creating a single line box. Free number is up to you like the picture below.Then arsirlah each box with a type size of a pencil. Examples of the first box shaded with 2H pencil, then the second box shaded with pencil H, and so on. When the shading is all done with the same pressure. See the difference between dark intensity of light produced by each pencil.Then shading gradations can be produced in other ways that make a few lines of the box as shown below. Then you use some kind of pencil, such as pencils B, 4B, and 9b. Arsirlah line top with a pencil box B, then arsirlah every pencil box with a different pressure levels. See the dark intensity of light produced by a pencil B. Then arsirlah line center with a pencil box 4B, and give it a different pressure on each box. So even with the bottom row shaded box with a pencil 9b with different pressures.Dark shading with the strongest pressure generated pencil B can be almost equal quality 4B pencil shading, so anything with 4B pencil with a strong pressure could match the intensity of dark shading 9b. With a bit of stress, intensity 4B pencil shading produced could match the intensity of shading pencil B. Perform a variety of other types of pencil so that the level of your sensitivity to the intensity of light and dark light on an object increases.The next workout you try to make the composition of basic shapes, then on each form you give your basic shading with different levels of intensity.Make a box with different sizes and shapes that have experienced distortion. Then komposisikan the boxes. You can also make the composition of shapes using basic shapes such as circles, triangles, and so forth. You can compose these basic shapes in different ways. Try to make a variety of other sketches, seek other forms of composition ideas, sketches and choose the ones you like.After sketching the composition of the box, prepare various types of pencil size, I prefer to use harsh measures such as H pencil in advance to provide shading light on the desired box, then at some parts are still with the same pencil I gave a stronger pressure so as to provide dark shading.After making sure the box where I want shading to bright and dark areas so I use a soft pencil measures such as 2B. You can see in the picture below by providing light and dark shading on the composition of the box it appears there was a volume or depth.When you draw an object you will understand that only by giving dark shading gradations of light, then the object is seen to have the volume and intensity of light is different.

After creating a single line box arsirlaheach box with a variety of sizes2H pencil for example, H, B, 2B, with the pressurethe same time you can see the difference in intensitydark light generated each pencil.

Make a few lines of the box, then
each line is shaded with a pencil
same as pencils B, but hatching with
different pressures on each box.
You will find the pencil B could almost
4B pencil to match the quality of hatching.

Exercise makes the composition of basic shapes
help you see the difference in intensity
dark light of a pencil. Find a variety of ideas
other basic forms of composition. Shading gradation
also can distinguish the volume of an object.

How to Draw Lamps

Sometimes you can find one kind of objects made of various materials. For example, glass is made of plastic, wood, ceramics.Or chairs made of iron, aluminum, wood, plastics, and rattan. In light texture shading drawing exercises, you will try to draw an object using a variety of shading, so you can imagine roughly made of any material object. Before you get started choose one of the interesting objects around you, then draw the object and arsirlah. After that image back the same object, then use a variety of other hatching. As in the picture lights that I created. I use a light object and use various kinds of hatching. So that each image displays light materials that different characters. Draw a variety of other objects using a variety of shading, and determine the material object.

I draw a lamp withuse hatching lines shortso as to display the characterlamp made of rattan.

I draw an object with lights

How to Draw Shadows

2008-12-22T19:40:00.001+07:00

All the objects are exposed to sunlight, lamp light, candles, and so will produce a shadow on the object. The fall of the shadow of an object depends on where the direction of the light. If the direction of the light coming from the front of the shadow of an object is behind.And vice versa if the direction of the light coming from behind the shadow of an object is in front. If the direction of the light is above a shadow object is a little place around the object.
The shadow produced by the sun, and the lights will be different shadow. Also note the time difference between daytime and nighttime. The light outside and inside the room to produce a different shadow on an object.
I once tried to draw on outside and inside the room on the day and night. If I draw in the room during the day, so I prefer to let the light of the sunlight, because sunlight is very good light to produce shadows.
As an exercise you can start in advance to view and analyze some of the shadows produced on an object. Note the direction of the light and shadow are produced. Is it very dark shadows or just the opposite is not too dark. Not all shadow generated by an object is very dark, sometimes visible only vague shadows.
As a beginner start exercises to make a shadow object in the morning and in a room that many incoming sun light. Choose a variety of simple objects such as fruit, cups, bottles, vases, and so forth. Move to different directions of different sun light. So you can see the different shadows produced.
Gradation shading technique used for shading shadows on the object. Select a pencil in accordance with the shadows generated by the object. Provide shading shadow will make objects appear more vivid and impress the object volume.

Direction of the sunaffect the resulting image object.

Shape shadow of an object depends
from the object structure. As
next cube has a shadow
box-shaped base. In contrast to the shadow
bucket below have elliptical shadow.

Utilizing the technique of shading gradations help
Your shading of light and dark areas on
an object, like a bucket next to this object.

How to Draw Geometric Composition

2008-12-22T15:33:00.001+07:00

Once you've mastered the previous exercise, then you'll have no trouble doing this exercise. Exercises you will do is compose basic shapes, which shapes the experience distortion, enlargement, reduction, cropping, and repetition. Basic forms can also be turned into a volume by using dark and light shading technique. Make some basic sketches first, choose basic shapes what you want to use. Then komposisikan basic form so that it meets the image area.
As a beginner you should frequently ask themselves whether the composition is good or not? Later after you do some exercise, then you will know the sketch where the best composition.
Choose the sketch that you want to solve. Then arsirlah with gradations of shading techniques. When I started shading you do not have to use light shading first. You can start with dark shading first, as shown below. If you like the texture shading techniques then combine in the composition of your image.
All objects that you want a picture like natural objects, humans, and animals if it would have simplified the basic geometric shapes such as square, square, circle, and triangle. This exercise will help you to see the basic shapes of every object. You also used to produce various kinds of dynamic composition which has an element of balance, rhythm and unity.

Initial sketch basic geometric shapes composition.
The basic form is already experiencing
enlargement, reduction, cutting and
repetition. This exercise is more enriching
your understanding to compose
various kinds of visual elements.

The most important thing you consider in
composition of the picture is a balance,
rhythm, and unity in the picture. In addition to engineering
gradient shading, you can also shading with various
type hatching texture. Develop other ideas and
move into your image.

How to Draw Fruits and Vegetables Structures

2008-12-22T14:30:00.001+07:00

Before drawing the man, and beast, should you exercise to draw natural objects first. Apart from the natural object does not move objects, you also can analyze the object better. Exercise natural draw very good thing to know all the visual elements of the structure of form, proportion, volume, composition, color, rhythm, and texture.Use your senses to better understand the object that you want the image. Get used to seeing, touching, feeling, smell, hear and feel an object before starting to draw. This activity will help you in expressing the character of these objects into the picture.Collect various objects of natural objects. You do not need to leave home to search for objects of natural objects. Your house are many things that attract the natural object. You can find natural objects and objects in the kitchen refrigerator.Now you definitely can not wait to start drawing a natural object objects. But before starting any drawing techniques that you must understand it first. You have to understand the structure of the basic shape of an object that you want the image. This technique helps you draw the object volume.All objects that you have a structure drawing basic shapes. Each object has a structure different basic shapes. The structure of the basic form of natural object objects of fruits and vegetables in general is a composition of circles and cylinders.There are exercises you can do, for example, draw the basic shapes the structure of apples, apple Hold in your hand, then felt the volume of the apple. Imagine an apple is composed of circles.Then move the arrangement of circles that form aoel into the picture, like the picture on the right side. Besides apples try to draw the volume of other objects.If the object of vegetables and fruits that you find in the house was still small. Buy a variety of vegetables and fruits to the market or supermarket. You will find the object of vegetables and fruits that diverse.

Various forms of the basic structurenatural objects. Imagine the natural structure of objectscomposed of basic shapes circle.

Corn turned out to have volumecylinder composed ofelongated circles.

Ubi has a rough skin texture, andhas a volume of an irregular cylinder.

Cabe has not elongated cylinder volumeirregular surface texture and not too rough.In contrast to the surface of carrot texturemore coarse. I provide shaded half circleand shading to make it look thin elongated volume of these carrots.

How to Draw Apples

2008-12-22T14:27:00.001+07:00

Fruits apple is one object image of the easiest to learn. The shape and structure is very simple. When you draw an apple, the most important thing you learn is the form of volume and texture of apple skin itself. Although simple if you try to cut the apple turns out different forms of the volume of apples with other fruits. Skin texture of apple fruit also has its own trademark. You notice the difference between Malang apples, red apples and green apples. If you analyze it will show the difference. Malang apples can you know from the rather plain green color. While the red apple has a patterned texture of the skin and if touched her skin was smooth surfaces
In practice drawing this apple, you will be composing an object type of the images first. This exercise will help you learn about image composition. Later there are times when you have to compose various types of objects to be drawn.
I started drawing a few sketches of apples first. I draw a sketch of the basic shape of apple by drawing the lines of expression in the process of drawing a red apple, I only use 3 type of pencil that is B, 2B and 4B. I made a basic sketch of an apple with a pencil B.Then for regions that are not too dark I give shading with pencil 2B.On the dark for more raises my red apple texture shading with pencil 4B.

Make several sketches of applesfirst with expression lines.You should also try to drawapples with various compositions.

I specify in advance the light areasand dark in the sketch image applenext to this. In my bright area shadingwith 2B pencil. Hatching direction in accordance withvolume of the apple shape.

How to Draw Glass and Teapot

2008-12-22T06:02:00.001+07:00

In this still life drawing exercise I chose a glass object and pitcher.Glass that I selected a transparent glass cup and teapot that I choose to have the basic form structure which is composed of various forms of the circle.When I draw a glass, I put it outside the room so the sun is behind the glass and create interesting shadows. Because the material of glass I chose pencils 2H, B and 2B. 2H pencil shading allows me to thin.When drawing the pitcher I use six different types of pencil is a pencil size 2H, B, 2B, 4B, and 6B. Before the draw I am looking for different points of view accordingly. Then my first analysis of the intensity of light and dark where the shadows fall on the pitcher.You can try to draw natural objects in your home such as glasses, cups, plates, and so forth. Look for unique objects, see how the shape, structure, and raw material.

I use a 2H pencil for
drawing the initial sketches and make
shadow so that the resulting thin hatching

I use a pencil B forthicken a dark area, and Ialso trying to keep showproperties of transparent glass, so thatthe back of the glass remains visible.

In the final stage I use2B pencil for shading areasdarker. Notice howglass made of glass transaparancan produce shadowdynamic and different.

Every fabric has a typical individual, there is a thick cloth, thin, stiff, weak, easily tangled, absorb sweat and others. Type of cloth there are also different kinds of cotton, wool, linen, and so forth. Choose the first fabric that you think is easy to learn grooves and pleats.You can draw sheets, blankets, clothes, pants, tablecloths and so on. Before drawing the fabric should you feel the texture of the cloth material. Then consider how the folds of the cloth, or how when the cloth was placed hanging, like clothes that have digantungan, tablecloths in the dining room table. See also whether the fabric picture that you have a motive or not, if indeed there is a picture you should also motives. In this exercise I tried to draw a blanket with a pattern of stripes. I accidentally put a blanket mess, then I use a 2H pencil to sketch the fold line and curve of the fabric. After that I use a 2B pencil to draw lines on the motif blanket. To better bring up the folds of my blanket using 6B pencils. I then hatching back with 2H pencil.

Setelah belajar mengenal satu-persatu karakter dari obyek alam benda yang Anda gambar. Sekarang Anda akan berlatih mengkomposisi berbagai macam obyek alam benda. Belajar mengkomposisikan berbagai macam obyek yang Anda gambar sangat penting. Komposisi gambar pada umumnya harus mempunyai unsur keseimbangan, kesatuan, dan dinamis.

Anda dapat meletakkan obyek yang akan Anda gambar di atas meja. Sebaiknya meja tersebut terletak di tengah sebuah ruangan, sehingga Anda dapat melihatnya dari berbagai macam sudut pandang Jika memang tidak ada meja letakkan semua obyek gambar Anda di atas lantai.
Obyek yang diletakkan di bawah sehingga terlihat bagian atas obyek disebut sudut pandang atas. Tetapi jika Anda menggunakan meja dan Anda berada di bawah meja, sehingga Anda bisa melihat bagian bawah obyek maka disebut sudut pandang bawah.
Biasakanlah untuk sering bereksperimen mengubah komposisi obyek gambar Anda. Ruang kosong antara obyek yang di gambar juga sangat penting, karena sangat membantu keseimbangan komposisi gambar Anda. Sebagai pemula kadang Anda ragu dan takut komposisi gambar tidak sesuai yang diharapkan. Tetapi dengan berlatih terus membuat sketsa dan mengubah berbagai macam komposisi gambar maka tanpa banyak pertimbangan lagi, Anda dapat dengan mudah menghasilkan gambar yang memiliki komposisi seimbang dan dinamis.

Benda-benda yang ada di sekitar rumah saya
kumpulkan dan diletakkan di atas meja.
Kemudian saya gambar sketsa dasar komposisi
alam benda menggunakan pensil 2B

Saya mulai mengarsir gambar komposisi
alam benda dengan pensil 2H dan 2B.

Setelah menentukan daerah gelap terang,
kemudian saya menggunakan pensil 4B dan 6B
