The art of tone: exploring shading techniques and artistic inspirations... Show more
This page demonstrates the practical application of tonal techniques using three different mediums: acrylic paint, graphite pencil, and pen. The author shares their experience with each medium, noting that graphite pencil was the easiest to use for creating the illusion of a real-life object.
Highlight: The acrylic background techniques proved challenging but rewarding, helping to improve painting skills and create the appearance of smooth surfaces.
The page revisits the works of Leonardo da Vinci and M.C. Escher, emphasizing their mastery of tone. Da Vinci's use of toned papers and restricted tonal ranges for subtle modeling is noted, along with his technique of using parallel and horizontal lines.
Vocabulary: Sfumato technique refers to the soft, hazy effect achieved by blending tones to eliminate harsh lines, a method perfected by Leonardo da Vinci.
Escher's realism is again highlighted, focusing on his use of tone to bring out details in features, particularly in his drawings of hands.
Example: The author's attempt at creating 3D forms using different mediums is shown, demonstrating the application of the tonal techniques discussed.
The final page focuses on a detailed study of an old book, demonstrating the application of various tonal techniques learned. The author describes their process, starting with the "erasing" method to ensure correct proportions, then adding shading and details.
Vocabulary: The "erasing" method involves lightly sketching the basic shape and then erasing to refine the proportions before adding details.
The study incorporates the use of white gel pen for highlights and a range of graphite pencils for shadows, showcasing the author's understanding of creating textures and adding tone.
Highlight: The author expresses satisfaction with the results, noting how the exercise taught them different ways of creating textures and adding tone.
The page concludes with a reflection on the artists studied, particularly M.C. Escher. The author was intrigued by Escher's detailed and creative work, especially his optical illusions that manipulate perception through contrasts between highlights and shadows.
Example: The author's magnified version of Escher's eye artwork is mentioned, demonstrating the application of fascinating light and dark tones inspired by M.C. Escher's mathematical art.
This practical study and artist inspiration section reinforces the techniques and concepts of tone explored throughout the guide, providing a comprehensive understanding of tone in art examples and their application.
This page introduces the concept of tone in art and highlights the techniques of two masters: Leonardo da Vinci and M.C. Escher. Tone, consisting of shadows and highlights, is crucial for creating depth in artwork.
Definition: Tone in art refers to the use of light and dark to create the illusion of three-dimensionality on a two-dimensional surface.
The page showcases various mediums used to create tone, including pen, newspaper, oil pastels, and acrylic. It emphasizes the importance of different shading techniques in achieving desired tonal effects.
Highlight: Leonardo da Vinci's techniques are praised for their perfection, particularly his use of vanishing points, sfumato method, and understanding of light-dark relationships.
Quote: "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" - Leonardo da Vinci
The page also introduces M.C. Escher's work, noting his ability to achieve realism through tonal manipulation. Escher's use of familiar and symbolic images in monotone creates complex and lifelike artworks.
Example: Jim Dine's artwork is mentioned, showcasing how tone can be used to highlight specific areas, such as the handle and top of an object, to create depth.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

Not only did it help me find the answer but it also showed me alternative ways to solve it. I was horrible in math and science but now I have an a in both subjects. Thanks for the help🤍🤍

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
