Description
© 2011. The Onion, by Nancy Cupp, is a graphite pencil drawing I did as a sample to show my drawing students. I wanted to show how to turn a two dimensional circle into a realistic three dimensional shape with the use of shading, lights, shadows, and details of the onion skin. I placed an onion on a piece of paper so I could see the shadows better, and used a very dark background for a strong contrast in values. All you need is a pencil and paper to start drawing, for a lifetime of wonder and enjoyment.
