Art Supplies & Materials for Still Life Drawings

Video Transcript

Hi this is Julia Karch for Expert Village.com. In this video series we will be talking about still life drawing for beginners. In this section we will be talking about materials and I’ve chosen something a little bit more challenging for beginners, which is working with pen and ink. Because I think a pen can be lying around the house and any piece of paper. This I use is Strathmore drawing paper. It’s medium weight and you can use it for illustrations or final drawings. I also use kind of weird objects here. I’m using graphic design pens which come in different sizes. You have very thin point or very thick point. The ink will come out stronger or lighter in each drawing or for each line. So after you set up the still life, set yourself up with paper and a relaxing place with quite, not a lot of noise. Look at it as a kind of meditation.
