After the block in, (which can be VERY basic-but clear), you can build up a drawing that has great complexity and finish! It very much helps to be clear and disciplined about your block ins, then you can add style, etc to the drawing to create the finish you want.

My students at NKU struggle with block ins. In this demo I showed them how to keep the block ins simple-separate light from dark cleanly!

The Drawing Database is a public service outreach program, FREE to the public anytime-there is no fee! This channel is for Northern Kentucky University's School of the Arts, as well as alumni/alumnae and can be used by interested other students internationally. The videos are "active learning", meaning that the student can get the most out of the college level lessons by DRAWING ALONG WITH THEM! :)
