I submitted it, kind of forgot about it, then received an email months later that I had been chosen as a finalist for this competition (which was a MUCH more prestigious competition than I had realized when I entered). I decided to submit the drawing I’d done using drawing tip, because it was good. A while after that, in January of this year, I was leaving class one day and noticed a poster advertising a student art competition for figurative artwork. It worked, and it came out really nice looking, and I was very happy with the result. I saved it with the intent of trying it out and seeing if I could draw something and really make it look like light. A while after that, I started a new drawing and decided it was the perfect time to employ this new tip I found. I came across this drawing and the tip OP added in a reblog. I don’t think I reblogged this back when I first saw it– I think I just saved it to refer to the drawing tip later– but I will reblog it now to share this beautiful drawing and to tell OP and others how much this simple tip for drawing light has changed my year.Ībout a year and a half ago I was scrolling through Tumblr. You need colors in the background to have this work out the best! Bonus observation: The sorta trippy effect you get in this post’s painting is because the green and red are being used to create a chromatic aberration - an effect that happens when the lens of a camera, for example, fail to focus all colors to the same point. ^this is from another painting with a very bright light and some diffraction going on~ This little tip comes from light diffraction, which creates that rainbow-like effect and is something easily observable on the readable side of a CD, for example! This second color usually fades out and enhances the “super bright- MY EEEYES” effect. A general rule of thumb is that 2 colors will do the trick: The color you want your light to reflect, aka your object color and a receding color - that is, the color the light will get as it interacts with the environment around the object. Just white doesn’t cut it cause white is actually the result of all other colors combined, so to portray it you need to imply these other colors. But since you said you’ve been wanting to do it.
