Lesson 7, Part 2 - Recognizing Shapes and Values

Painted with Corel Painter’s Blocky Background brush found in the Sargent brush set

This is the final painting of the final lesson of Isis Sousa’s Digital Painting course on Youtube. I recommend the course to anyone who wants to learn the basics of digital painting. Sousa sensei starts the course by explaining the restricted set of brushes that will be used for all of the paintings. For each lesson she provides reference photos, and students can follow along as she does a demonstration painting of the assignment.

The course is given using Corel Painter, but the basic principles of digital painting apply to any full-featured painting software.
