How to draw a yellow Labrador in soft pastels - timelapse tutorial - part one

Описание: In this tutorial I show you how I tackle drawing a beautiful yellow Labrador! One of the things which was great about this one is that Luna (the lovely yellow lab) was drawn as a real life commission, which meant demonstrating drawing from customer photos, rather than a perfectly polished photo from a stock website. This is a timelapse of a much longer tutorial, which is available on my Patreon channel and if you want to check that out I talk about how I tackle a reference photo which is a bit blurrier/has a lack of detail. You'll see in the follow ups of this tutorial in the later parts I refer to other photos my customer provided, to try and see detail which isn't available in the main photo.

In this timelapse I talk about the colours/light and direction of fur - which is the crucial part of creating that realism and I show you here how to creative that soft fur without making her too fluffy!

I hope you find this helpful. If you’d like to follow along with the full length real time tutorial, complete with step-by-step guidance, materials list, and reference photo, it’s available now on my Patreon channel:
