Black and white still-life can be drawn in various ways. It may look like a standard pencil sketch, as well as an interesting illustration of stains or letters. Today we will tell about various techniques that can be easily repeated at home.

Figure spots

Black and white still-life most often make decorative. Why? Yes, because he looks so winning. Realistic image, devoid of color, can look appropriate if it is a portrait, an illustration or something like that, multi-model. Realistic still life is not very interesting to consider. Therefore, many artists and prefer work with decorative. Still life black and white draws very simple. First you need to build a song. You can draw from nature, which will be easier, or invent the formulation in the imagination. In our case, there is a jug and a bowl with apples on the table. On the wall hanging onions and drapery. When everything is found for this, the right place is found on the sheet, and the details are worked out, you can move to the separation of objects on the part. Moreover, it is not necessary to do this in a chaotic order, but clearly thinking that the white parts are adjacent to black and none of the items are lost.

Linear drawing

Still life black and white can be drawn in various techniques. One of them is a picture of a drawing using lines. To draw such a picture, you need to take objects that have a clearly pronounced texture. If it is not so, then the relief will have to invent. Start drawing a black and white still-life with the construction of the composition. First we plan all items. In our case, this is a mug with flowers, apples and wooden table. After all items took their place, we begin to work out the form, and then the details. The final action is an image of the invoice. The circle acquires horizontal stripes, flowers and apples - a black and green border. Be sure to show the texture of the table. It is desirable to combine horizontal and vertical lines in still life so that the items do not merge, but profitably stand out against each other's backdrop.

Figure from letters

This image will look like black and white graphics. Still life consists of letters that are smoothly moving to words and even in suggestions. How to draw such an original decorative composition? First, you should depict the sketch. Outline a cup and newspaper that will lie in the background. After that, you need to divide the pattern by tones. For example, coffee in a circle should be the most saturated tone, the second place is occupied by a falling shadow, and the third is own. Thus, it is possible to divide the entire sketch with lines. After that, if you are confident in your abilities, you can paint the drawing with a gel pen, and if you worry that something fails, first make foaming letters with a pencil. True, in this case, it is necessary to circle letters. The gel handle does not paint a pencil. Apply letters follows the form of items. And be sure to play with a height and width. One word can be very narrow, and another two or three times more. You can encrypt some phrases in such a picture, and you can write arbitrary words.

Still life- This is a genre of fine art dedicated to the image of household goods, fruits, vegetables, colors, etc.
As an independent genre, still life has received its development in the 17th century. In the work of Dutch artists. And at present, the genre is quite widely used by modern artists and designers. Along with the realistic image, it is very often possible to meet with the concept of "decorative still life".
For decorative still life, a conditional, simplified image of forms, stylization.
A lot of attention is paid to the color decision, coloring-a flowered combination used in the composition. Frequent is the use of contrasting colors. The harmonious contrast combination is the ratio of black and white. This combination is actively used in graphics, clothing, interior, etc.
We will try our today's composition of still life using the combination of black and white, but to the color, we will also add the concept of the plane partition to the cells. Recall the location of the color cells-fields on the chessboard, we will pay attention to the fact that the same field-colored fields are never combined with the overall side, they only touch each other at one point. We will try this feature to use at work on the composition of still life.


Progress
1. Thinking the composition, choose the location of the sheet. We plan the location of items. If you work in this technique for the first time - try not to complicate the composition by applying the form of one subject to another.


2. We plan the design of objects with broken lines. Since still life will be decorative - it is not necessary to strive for the transmission of volume, there will be a flat construction.


3. We refine the contours of the form of objects. We supply the contours of the vase, cups, draw the stems of flowers, fruits with more smooth lines. Remove the line of construction.


4. We plan incident shadows. We separate the sheet plane to the same cell in the magnitude using a ruler. The optimum magnitude of the cell for the landscape sheet (A4) is 3 cm if the larger sheet (A3), then you can increase the length of the cell side up to 5 cm. If there is no experience in such an image of still life - try not to complicate the problem reducing the cell size.


5. We begin the painting of the cells with a gouache black. Trying the paint to take thick so that the paint layer is quite dense and homogeneous. If the form of objects fall within the cell, then it is not painted it. Starting work better from extreme cells, gradually moving in the middle of the composition.


6. We turn to the painting of cells in the middle of the composition, without going for the contours of items.


7. After completing the staining of the background, we begin to work out the color of the parts of the objects that hit the white cells.


8. Continuing to work on staining individual elements approach the completion of work. We refine the lines of the shape of the objects, correct the inaccuracies and non-accurant contours of the cells.


Work is ready.

Thanks for attention! I wish all creative success!

At our classes, painting special attention is paid to the still lifes, performed in decorative picturesque technique.

Decorative painting is a diverse and extensive topic. In our teachers developed by our teachers, there is a series of lessons to study decorative techniques of work with paints. For examples, special still lifes are prepared, on which you can visually show the various techniques and features of the decorative style.

The purpose of the task is decorative still life.

  • Learn to depict objects using decorative painting products.
  • Master the skills of transformation, division and color layouts in shape.
  • Try various decorative painting techniques.

There is a common belief that decorative picturesque styles do not fit into the academic program and contradict the main picturesque rules. In fact, it is deep delusion. All methods and the principles of decorative style follow directly from the academic program and are its further development and the incessant evolution of all academic art.

At first glance, simplified modeling and the lack of a realistic image may present an incorrect image. Decorative performance of the work puts many other, more complex, tasks.

Decorative painting involves a deep study of local color, composition of color spots, the search for expressive accents and spectacular spatial solutions.

The artist requires the most clearly, using the minimum of funds, pass the image, the impression of the real model. It is necessary to show the volume of the subject, the material, invoice without resorting to the classic modeling. The value of the analysis of the object is increasing, it is necessary to select and simulate a stylized image that transfers the object into the color plane from the realistic image.

In decorative painting, a line becomes more important, which becomes a full participant in the picture and on a par with color and tone is involved in the formation of a general composition. Changing the thickness and expressiveness of the line more brightly emphasizes the volume and plastic of the item.

Also, a wide variety can bring a change in the shape and the frequency of the smear, which immediately turns the surface of the canvas into a decorative panel or mosaic.

At the first stage of acquaintance with the possibilities of decorative painting, we recommend writing a series of still lifes, as in still life there is an opportunity to choose combinations of objects and tissues to bright demonstrate decorative style techniques.

Types of decorative still life.

There are several common techniques who have proven themselves in practice and in the learning process. The names are selected conditionally, since in modern painting there is no clear, international classification of styles and uniform names.

Painting from flaps. All color combinations in this technology are depicted in the form of separate segments, emphasize the structure of objects and the most expressive properties manifest. Frequently used clean colors and plane display of space.

Painting with a clearly dedicated circuit. To enhance the shape and color ratios, the so-called "stained glass method" is used, when all objects and refractive places of the form are powered by black or dark lines, creating clear abrasions and boundaries between the colors. Works performed in such a technique are obtained very spectacular and bright.

Other decorative techniques are based on combinations of pure colors, various types of changes in the smears, the use of masticic, wide brushes and other tools. The format of the article does not allow to describe each technique and the method of applying paint. More details you can find out by visiting our classes.

Photographs of still lifes, as you know, are quite common. Often, many photographers love to present their still lifes in the black and white. To do this, you need to find objects, compare everyday objects in your environment, as well as strengthen the difference in textures and tones. The transformation into a black and white version gives many features when viewing the photo itself.

Black and white still-life allows you to focus on the lines of photography, textures and forms. In this case, these elements focus much easier, as it is not necessary to be distracted by colors. Good use of this reception will not only get a more objective image from the point of view of its integrity, but also strengthen the voltage between different objects and materials. Such combinations can be found everywhere, for example, in the park, on the shore, etc. You can take pictures of any objects. In addition, you can photograph objects with pairs or more. It should be noted that it is not recommended to use the same methods to convert photos to a black and white option.

To create a black and white still life, you must possess:

  • camera and standard lens
  • devices for macro shot
  • tripod
  • computer with a program with which you can convert a photo in a black and white version
