Watch from the Freehand outline to finished Graphite portrait... surface used on Strathmore Bristol smooth paper. In this tutorial I share with you my tips and technique I have used over the 40 plus years of drawing and painting.
Easy to follow stages with loads of pointers which guides you through my easy to follow method. Even if you specialise in colour work, continuing to draw in graphite really does help us to see the values much easier.
My passion is to help you to create realistic and soulful artwork. If you found this video useful please give it a like. If you have any questions, leave them in the comments and I'll get back to you as soon as I can :)
