Hello my friends and welcome to another Tuesday of tutorial!
I am Leonardo Pereznieto and today we will sketch a horse with ink,
and I want to thank Apealz, our sponsor.
Let's begin with a line for the top of the neck,
and then a triangular shape for the head
or a trapezium shape, rather.
I am barely touching the paper with the nib,
because these are guidelines and I want them light.
One of the front legs will go like...
here,
the one that is stepping up.
We mark the volume of the body,
and this is the rear.
And let's draw the legs,
we can first just find the position
by marking it with a line,
like so...
the four legs.
Let's check the size of this one, it should go about here,
good!
And now let's draw the head and face with more detail.
In last week's tutorial, we went over to how to easily draw the horse's head, step by step.
If you haven't see it, I recommend you to watch it.
Today's drawing is a much loser one, it is not step by step
it is a more rapid sketch which I hope at the end will also look fluid and with movement,
that is, not stiff.
I learned this from a book I love called "The Art of Animal Drawing" by Ken Hultgren.
In order to correctly do this type of sketch, it is important to study the anatomy of the horse,
and that can be achieve by making a lot of anatomical sketches of the horse,
of the bones, muscles and actual horses.
We will soon begin shading,
when we do it so, remember that you can use the shading lines
in order to convey the volume of each part,
wrap your lines around the shapes.
You don't need to do this always,
but you can do this to help you represent the volumes,
as if drawing on the actual rounded object.
And while I continue drawing, I want to briefly talk to you about Apealz,
our sponsor.
As you probably know, Apealz are a unique fabric decal, that is a sticker,
that can be applied to your phone, water bottle and more.
Apealz are made in the U.S.A.
Their special adhesive allows you to stick your Apealz to virtually anything,
remove it and reuse it, somewhere else.
Knowing that I will take this one,
which I have on the box where I keep the paints,
and I will move it to the door at the other side of my studio.
Right here.
That will look so much nicer!
and I will be able to see it all the time.
Now since I have the same painting on the back of my phone,
I think I will rather change that for a new one.
I will place there a sculpture I made called "The Birth of Venus".
I think this one will look so nice on there!
I´m really happy with it!
Look! nice eh? [laughter].
And to end today's decoration,
I´ll place this artwork on the side of this wooden cabinet, where I keep my pencils and pens.
My studio looks so much nicer now!
In this way I can sell the originals, but still enjoy the artworks.
This is perfect for my own enjoyment,
but I would love to also be able to promote my brand
or in this case my art,
so I go to the Apealz website,
upload my work and design my Apealz,
it will say artistleonardo.com
in bright, red letters, so that they also match the flying fish of the painting.
And I will be able to place it on my car or whatever I want, for others to see.
I look so much forward to get in it!
