 For
true realism, you need to be able to give objects the illusion of three dimensions,
even though you are using two-dimensional media. If your paintings do not have
this quality, you need to work on form. If you are doing portrait, figure,
or still life work, form is the most important thing you need to know about.
There are many books on the market on form, however the information in these courses goes into the subject to a much deeper level than you will find elsewhere. Much of the information you get in these courses was learned first hand from some of the greatest painters alive today. For example, you will learn the difference between true highlights and spectral highlights, something that took me a long time to understand the difference. You will also learn that there is a lot more to form than just a light plane and a shadow plane.
 Here are some of the things you will learn on these courses:
- How to represent form using the two-value statement, the fastest way to create convincing form
- How to represent the different planes of light and shade such as reflected lights, core shadows, highlights, central lights, and edge planes. Most books only talk about the basic three planes (light, shadow, and reflected light). You need much more than that to create convincing form.
- What color to paint the reflected lights
- How do you represent the edge plane
-
- What color to paint the highlights, and why you need to understand the difference between spectral highlights and true highlights
- What happens to hue and saturation of colors on objects when light falls
on them
- What is the color of the cast shadow
- How the color of the cast shadow changes as you move away from the object that casts the shadow
- How do you deal with edges on a form
