Head Drawing Fundamentals

In this class I'll cover the basics of getting started with Head Drawing and how to break down the head into simple grid-like mechanics that will help you find the proportions and features of the head. I'll discuss my thought process behind all the steps in constructing the head and then do a full-length portrait from start-to-finish. Along the way, I'll discuss ideas about the various features of the head as well as how I tackle things like shadows and building form to create a three-dimensional portrait.

There is quite a bit involved in drawing a portrait from any angle, and although I don't cover every little angle or idea about head drawing, this class will be a good introductory class to get you started and see how a portrait gets developed from the early stages and to a finish!
