Today, I’m excited, I have got a new short documentary about “Life Lessons from an Artist” and a step by step demo of a portrait I did without a drawing.
First, it’s all about the film, in 2012- The Life of an Artist was released, today it has has over half a million views, it has inspired many to take up sketching again and for many it has sparked a revival of getting them back to doing what they really love to do. Seven years after, another film is here! This time it focuses in some of the lessons I have learnt over the past seven years and what I have been able to achieve. My message is clear-BELIEVE IN YOURSELF, NEVER GIVE UP and NEVER LET FAILURE drag you down. There are also tips for aspiring plein air painters and lots more, so enjoy this, get a cup of coffee, it is only 10 minutes but it will be worth every minute .

Landscape Workshop with Adebanji Alade
Hi guys,
I will be having a workshop in London next Saturday on “Everything I know about painting a Landscape”.

MY LANDSCAPE PROCESS
Below, I have a demonstration of my landscape process using the Outside-In Technique. I start from sketching and then I move into making the sketch a bit more clearer. Once the sketch is solid enough, I go into painting very bold shapes which gradually become fine tuned towards the end.

Adebanji Alade’s One day Workshop on Sketching The Human face in London
Hi guys, I am back here again, this time with a process of how I sketch a portrait using the angles and block-ins. In this method I start from sketching the overall angles from one spot and continue to flow through the sketch, bringing each phase to completion as I go along. I also have a date and venue set for my Sketching the Human Face Workshop on Saturday, 14th of July, 2018 in London, make it a date. I’ll talk about that at the end of this post.

Hi guys, It’s nice to be back here again! This is Hotshot 25! This shows my process of drawing a portrait. It is quite hard to document every stage and sometimes my process does change a bit, but this is the most common method I normally use to approach a drawing from the beginning to the end.
