Lidia: An online figure drawing session

Luca Indraccolo

Join Luca Indraccolo as he captures the figure of model Lidia, exploring how to use edges to define and soften form. Working on black paper, he uses a range of Polychromos coloured pencils—black, white, and three shades of grey (light, mid, and dark)—along with a pencil eraser and a Mars plastic eraser. Through careful transitions between tones and hard and soft edges, he creates a dynamic sense of volume and depth in the drawing.
