Description
Join Alain Picard as he shares his techniques for basic portrait drawing. You’ll start with learning how to find the features on the face and how those positions change with the angle of the head. Then Alain takes you through how to draw ears, eyes, mouths, and noses one at a time, giving tips and tricks for each feature along the way. Finally, you’ll put your skills to use with an entire portrait drawn from a photo reference.
In this video you will learn:
- How to start a portrait by lightly sketching with easy-to-remove vine charcoal
- Tips for finding your mistakes and fixing them
- How to turn a form with light and shadow
With these basic skills, you’ll be able to draw any face you see!
