What is the Difference Between Chiaroscuro and Tenebrism? Both chiaroscuro and the Mannerist painterly style known as tenebrism (from the Italian word "tenebroso" meaning "murky") are concerned with the treatment of light and shadow in a two-dimensional painting or drawing. And at first glance a tenebrist painting might look very similar to one containing strong chiaroscuro effects.tenebrism However, there is a clear theoretical difference between the two terms. As described above, chiaroscuro is a painterly shading technique used specifically to give 2-D objects a sense of volume: that is, to make them look like three-dimensional solids. Whereas tenebrism is a dark-light compositional technique by which some areas of the painting are kept dark (that is, totally black), allowing one or two areas to be strongly illuminated by comparison. Tenebrism is used for purely dramatic effect (it is sometimes called "dramatic illumination"). There is no modelling involved: no attempt to give figures a sense of three-dimensionality. In effect, tenebrist darkness is purely negative, while chiaroscuro shadow contributes positive form. Some paintings, such as Caravaggio's Supper at Emmaus (1602) combine both three-dimensional-style chiaroscuro and dramatic tenebrist-style lighting.Supper at Emmaus

What is the Difference Between Sfumato and Chiaroscuro? As noted, chiaroscuro involves the combined use of light and shadow. However, the meeting point of these two values may give rise to sharp lines or contours. Leonardo da Vinci pioneered the technique of sfumato in order to soften the transition from light to dark. In his notes on painting he says that light and shade should blend "without lines or borders, in the manner of smoke. (In Italian, sfumato means "vanished gradually like smoke").Sfumato typically involves the use of several translucent glazes to create a gradual tonal spectrum from dark to light, thus eliminating undesirable sharp contours. Sfumato is exemplified in the faces of the Virgin of the Rocks and the soft facial shading on the face of the Mona Lisa (c.1503, Louvre). The technique of sfumato was also mastered by Giorgione ( ) andCorreggio ( ).sfumatoVirgin of the RocksMona LisaGiorgioneCorreggio

Tape around all for sides with masking tape and begin to reveal some squares to show more of one picture and so forth until you like the composition. You can eliminate rows and squares that are not important. 5.

Use all the drawing tools we learned in Art 1, smudge shading blending transfer tones with cotton pads, etc. Use a kneaded eraser for highlights. Use colored pencils for accents and interest if desired. 7.Transfer the design with graphite onto white drawing paper and begin to draw each square.
