In this quick little charcoal drawing video I wish to share with you one particular way that I use to practice creating portraits. The goal is to be quick, deliberate, and to train the eye. By "train the eye" I mean being able to capture proportion without the need of measuring/copying. On a side note, this technique is very fun and expressive. I will most likely film more of these.
