Sketching Faces 3 Ways - Learn to Sketch Portraits from Reference

These are great!As for the class; I'm not sure if you mean something more along the lines of a complete graphite portrait? This class focuses on the proportions and hpw to break down your reference.Each of the 3 techniques demonstrated are ways to break down a portrait from the blank page to a final portrait sketch that can then be used for something like a watercolor portrait 🙏once you have the features in place it's a matter of rendering that into more detail - just like with the eye/mouth which you did amazing on. Thank you for sharing these!

Great expression! You did a good job with the placements of the features. :)

Thank you, professor. I'm trying to expand more, and I think I should.

The course is good, but it would be better if it explained some tips and techniques for sketching in more detail. I'm not saying it's bad, but it would be more practical if it gave tips on how to better apply the techniques for sketching faces.
