This lesson covers the most critical first step in shading: dividing light from shadow. I'll show you what ideal lighting looks like and how to position your light source to reveal an object's form. You'll learn to find the "line of termination" on spheres, cubes, and cylinders. I'll demonstrate how to draw this line, whether it's a hard edge on a cube or a soft edge on a sphere, and lay in your first shadow value. Mastering this step will stop you from scattering values and make your drawings look three-dimensional.
