This video demonstrates two different methods of drawing the same portrait. One is a sight-size technique which relies solely on measurements to record every line. The other relies on a conceptualization of the volumetric forms which begins with the skull. With the second approach, one needs to have some basic knowledge of anatomy, whereas with the first approach that isn’t necessary. My recommendation would be to practice both methods, as each has value. As you practice the methods, you’ll most likely end up combining them in a way which best suits your needs. I offer online instruction on all of these techniques. For more information on how to enroll in my classes, please see the links below. Thanks for watching!
