I get it now✨Evolve Art Student Vlog ✨ Ep. 3 When things begin to click together

Hello and thank you for joining me in this Evolve art student vlog!
Evolve is an online art school that I signed up with. It's pretty pricey so fingers crossed it's worth it. In this video, I begin to have a better understanding of values, edges, and their relationships. Values can be such a tricky thing to learn, and so I'm very happy to say that I get it now. Gradients I still need to work out more, but I'll take my wins when i get them. Let's keep learning!

    WOW!!! Those paintings are amazing! It's awesome to see how you are developing through this course. And I really appreciate that you keep posting about your experience and development. It's great to see the progression of the whole course and not just the beginning. SIGH if only I had the time and the money! I've been practing a bit with gouache, and I realized I need to go back to greyscale to work on values. It's not the same as your course, but I'm definitely taking in what you're working on and trying to incorporate it into my own practice. I totally agree that having a teacher helps a lot in development. I want to take a course when I'm off school for the summer.

    I know it’s quite pricey but compared to actually going to school, I mean the price difference is HUGEEEE.. at least that’s how I’m trying to justify it 😭😭 I’ll keep posting my journey through out the program, & once I start getting a real good grip I’ll start sharing some tips!! I hope maybe one day I can teach people like Kevin does, it must really be so rewarding to help others in their art journeys

    It’s a great one, I’ve never been to an art class. But what’s really drawn me to this program is how they are teaching & providing feedback on technical application- & not whether or not your art is good lol

    Evolve teaches ART (fundamentals in course 1 and the more advanced principles in course 2) through the medium of oil painting and the format of realism. Art principles don't change by medium or format; they're the same across all visual art disciplines.

    I'm confused about your confusion. Isn't it true that the closer you are to the light the lighter it is?

    That’s exactly how I was thinking, but then I realized I’m not looking at the brightest part of the object or the highlight, I’m looking at it as a whole picture. For example, I could have a black ball closer to the light source and a pink cup further away. The black ball being closer to the light source will not make it a lighter value than the pink cup, because I’m looking at the depth of the color itself- not the placement in relation to the light source 😊
