In this drawing a ball was placed on an upside down stool and
a piece of cloth was placed over to create some drapes. With these drapes
shadows appear on the cloth and on the ground. There are different values in
the scene which are the different shades of grey on the cloth. With these
different values you can shade as there is differences between the greys that
you can see giving the drawing depth and definition. For this drawing the light
was coming from the windows on the left and most of the light was going to the top
of the object. The drapery helps show the shadows on the cloth and the areas
that are the darkest are the areas that are facing away from the light or the
light is getting blocked by something else.
The there are some strong cast shadow but the drawing could
be improved. The drawing shows the different areas and different values used in
shading but for some areas other techniques could be used. Hatching and cross hatching could have been used to shade
the darker areas like artist do rather than having one way of shading like in
this drawing. The stool has some shadows
as most of the light is getting blocked by the drapery but there is some light
getting there because the light was getting reflecting and bouncing around the
room as it was quite bright. A shadow could have been drawn on the ground to
show that the ball, drapery and the stool are creating a cast shadow.
