Ébauches de portraits d'animaux - 5 exercices pour améliorer vos techniques de dessin

I really appreciate that you're sharing the different 'steps' from the reference, to guidelines, to final sketch. And the sketch looks great! you've captured the angles and curious expression so well - and I love the amount of contrast you've added just around the eyes, nose and mouth.Thank you so much for sharing!

Thank you so much for your appreciation, Tanja! This was my first time drawing an animal and your course simplified the process so much. Steps like making a rough guideline with basic shapes, checking the angles with pencil, and blurring lines with fingers really made a difference. :)

So happy to hear you found the lessons helpful! can't believe this was the first time you sketched an 'animal portrait' wow!
