Before I start coloring, I’m going to explain how to add shadows.
Always use logic. Assuming the light source is above Each overlapping shape casts a shadow onto the shape below. That means that the area next to the edge of the top shape is going to be darker, Then the shadow fades as it gets away from that edge. That simple |
First - get your colored pencils ready.
You will need a few for each circle: Main color or a mix of colors as a base Darker color or black for shadows And lighter color or white for highlights. Start with the top circle. There should be no shadows here since it gets full light exposure. But I like to mix colors. Maybe a little highlight to emphasize the contrast. Next circle - color it with a base color. Lightly shade the area, exposed to light Use a darker color for shadows. Always start at the edge - where the value is the darkest, then fade it into the main color. Use a lighter color to blend the lit area. Then use the same approach for the rest of the circles. |
