One Thing Many Angles


                                                             

ART STUDIES

Leonardo DaVinci (1452-1519)

Leonardo da Vinci was an Italian sculptor, architect, engineer, scientist, theorist, and inventor. Da Vinci conducted experiments and made scientific discoveries in fields like anatomy, zoology, geology, and paleontology. He's best known for his paintings, including The Mona LisaThe Last Supper, and Madonna of the RocksHowever, his talents extended far beyond art. 

When interesting in a subject, he would study it and draw it from different perspectives and angles. He was dedicated to his art sketches as a way to know more about drawing what is real. This practice improved his skills for some of his most amazing works. 



Still today, artist study objects, perspective, and angles in order to achieve realism in their Art. 
The hardest part is going beyond drawing the front, back, side, top and bottom. 
It is using foreshortening that is the challenge. 

WHAT IS FORESHORTENING?

Foreshortening is an art technique used to create the illusion of depth and 3D space on a flat surface. It is the effect of an object or figure appearing shorter and compressed when viewed from an angle that makes it project toward or recede away from the viewer. This is achieved by shortening and distorting the proportions of an object as it moves into the background or comes closer to the foreground

Miracle Lim, a director at an art academy in South Korea, has captivated over 224,000 Instagram followers with hyper-realistic illustrations that stand out for their rich details and technical precision. At the heart of each piece, the artist meticulously focuses on a strikingly realistic subject. Surrounding the central illustration is a collection of smaller sketches, thematically linked to the main image. Some of these serve as a step-by-step breakdown of the creative process, while others are expressive doodles that share a connection with the final artwork.
