...I'll figure out how to get down from this ledge!
Since I've been thinking so much about lighting (and not, you know, actually PRACTICING shading or anything like that), I thought I'd try to draw something that required a bit of practice with lighting. A sunset seemed to be the best place to start.
Shading's a bit difficult to do when your only tool is to draw a line, but I gave it a go anyway. Not to toot my own horn, but... I think I made that water look pretty good.
Aaaaand with that, I just invited someone to comment, "That's supposed to be WATER?!"
If I were to go back and do this one again (which, actually, would be the THIRD time attempting this scene), I'd leave out the thicker lines in the water. They're a bit more distracting, and I think the thinner lines do a better job of portraying the light on the water by themselves.
