There are several key principles of art (the jury is out on how many there actually are, some say 7, some say 10 and more!).

They include:

  • Balance
  • Emphasis
  • Movement and rhythm
  • Unity
  • Repetition
  • and CONTRAST

What do we mean by contrast? And how do we include it in our gesture drawing? 

Check out the video above to see 5 different examples of how to add more contrast  to your gestures. 

You can also download the PSD file of the image above to explore the different layers from the video.

I'd love to see some of your gestures implementing contrast.

If you have any questions, please post them below or DM me!

Really cool lesson! Amusing that most of the kinds of contrast you mentioned can be dealt with in terms of "S" lines versus "C" lines.
