Beginner’s guide to light, highlights & shadows

A little light. A little shade. A page full of depth.
Follow these six steps, then blend when you’re ready.

HIGHLIGHT · light
BASE · medium
SHADOW · dark
STEP 01

Find your light

Start with the direction you chose. The side facing the light will usually be lighter.

Light → object → shadow

STEP 02

Save the highlights

Keep small areas facing the light pale, or leave the paper showing.

LIGHT · preserve the bright spots

STEP 03

Lay the base colour

Add a gentle first layer. This middle shade connects your highlights and shadows.

MIDTONE · your main colour

STEP 04

Turn into shadow

Darken where a shape curves away from the light. This helps it look rounded.

FORM SHADOW · follows the curve

STEP 05

Look under overlaps

Add small dark areas under a brim or chin. Cast shadows fall where an object blocks the light.

CONTACT + CAST · separate shapes

STEP 06

Let light glow

An existing moon or lamp can brighten its surroundings. Keep the effect local and subtle.

GLOW · bright centre, gentle spread

Finally: blend gently, keep the depth.
Soften the transitions on rounded shapes. Keep some cast and contact shadows crisp, and leave your brightest highlights light.
Shading map = where to colour

Crisp patches show light, base and shadow placement. The boundaries are colour changes, not extra outlines to draw.

Balanced 3D = a finished look

Blended shading shows how those values can create rounded form. Each generation produces one view; separate previews may differ.

These diagrams explain the basics, not the exact lighting of your upload. AI previews are suggestions and may need correction. Each new generation uses another preview allowance.
