LESSON NOTES
What's in Premium?
In this premium demo, we explore creating composition thumbnails using markers to focus on values. Using a red-gray set of markers, we'll work through a piece featuring a sorcerer, exploring value contrasts, silhouettes, and light sources.
You'll learn how to:
- Choose the right materials and understand the subtle differences in marker temperatures.
- Approach thumbnails with a focus on exploration over precision, allowing for freer creativity.
- Analyze a reference image to identify key value patterns and compositional elements.
- Create multiple thumbnails experimenting with different value arrangements and backgrounds.
- Decide on the strongest composition and develop it into a more detailed, larger thumbnail.
- Apply three to four values effectively to enhance depth and focal points.
By the end of the lesson, you'll gain practical skills in using markers to explore values, improve your compositional decisions, and prepare for shading with light and form.

In this premium demo, we explore creating composition thumbnails using markers to focus on values. Using a red-gray set of markers, we'll work through a piece featuring a sorcerer, exploring varying background darkness, adjusting contrasts, simplifying shapes to enhance the silhouette, and light sources.
There aren't many posts, so I don't think there will be one. Maybe when more than 20 persons send in their work it's worth to make one.
I would have loved to see more posts on the demo thread.
I liked your digital painting thumbnails :)
