Professional Artist Lisa Clough on Improving Your Art

Five Values from Dark to Light

  Lisa has a huge website under the name Lachri Fine Art.  Her email today was so right on that i tried to find the ideas on her website.

  Things You May Find Surprising

• Tracing is a Learning Aid, not the end of all drawing.
• Don't leave it partially finished.  You probably can't do your piece in an hour, but 8 or 80 would give the look you want.
• Contrast, Contrast, Contrast!  Use a whole range of values.
