The three-dimensional drawings represent a great challenge for me, and in past publications I have shown three drawings that I made following the modality of three-dimensional art. My previous works were based on buildings, so this time I wanted to do something different and I drew a floating egg that you will see below:

PROCESS

This drawing would be relatively simple in the details aspect, since it only consisted of a floating egg, so the first thing I drew was the silhouette of the egg and I marked the lower area where the darker shadow would go.

---

I passed the pencil firmly to paint the lower part of the egg. I needed this part to be darker than the rest of the drawing to give it a three-dimensional perspective.

---

Then I shaded the rest of the egg in a tenuous way, so that it served as my base during the complex shading process.

---

With a lot of patience and caution I was shading in a gradient form, starting from the darkest area until attenuate the tones and reach a light gray.

---

As the egg would be floating I had to draw the shadow that would be projected on the page, so I drew an oval that served as a guide to position the shadow in its proper place.

---

With the pencil I made delicate strokes until I got the shadow of the egg, and with my finger I finished blurring it.

---

In most cases I usually touch up my drawings when I approach the end point, so with the pencil I intensified some shadows, and with the eraser I dimmed the graphite in the areas where the light details would go. And with the help of a scissors I cut the leaf to the height of the half of the egg, with this I managed to give a three-dimensional look to the drawing.

---

RESULTADO FINAL

Drawing with graphite is very fun, especially since you can play with lights and shadows and give a realistic look to the drawings. I was able to give this egg a three-dimensional look after a process of shading and the final touch of the paper cut.

Drawing is for me the best concentration therapy, and that's why I like these drawings so much, where shading is the protagonist. I hope that this work has been to your liking and be supported with your vote.
