Referencial Material For Drawing.

​In my time after the Monday life drawing sessions, I have taken it upon myself to search out and view the contents of books revolving around the techniques, methods, and knowledge around learning to draw. 

In my findings, I have discovered more about shading and lighting, as it wraps around certain objects and fills the void that lays behind the object/model. There are very intricate ways to implement these techniques as sometimes, straight lines aren't enough to create texture and/or add dimension to the drawing's composition. An example would be by lightly feathering the pencil, brush, or charcoal across the paper/canvas; to create blades of grass, an animals fur, or small details on fuzzy fabric.

The books I have consulted also show the potential of line strength, boldness and the general physicality of how they have been applied to the drawing's surroundings. In the image below; it describes the use of cross-hatching and shading detail onto the cylinder and sphere to create a more 3-Dimensional feel.
