ELEPHANT TUTORIAL
ADVANCED
Draw this majestic African Elephant with me in real-time where I show you step-by-step exactly what to do to achieve a detailed, realistic drawing. Some key techniques I'll teach you are how to draw creased, wrinkly skin and areas of high-contrast shadows.
PAPER
I use Fabriano Artistico hot pressed watercolour paper 640GSM extra white for this tutorial. The 300GSM version would work just as well. Alternatively, I recommend Strathmore Bristol Vellum from the 300 Series.
