Let's draw realistic faces from all different angles! In this four-lesson series, we'll practice portrait drawing strategies and create beautiful realistic sketches of faces and hair from the front, side, and 3/4 view. This class is for students who would like to practice portrait drawing strategies such as: -- Making faces proportionate & realistic -- Drawing realistic features (eyes, noses, mouths, ears, etc) with different expressions -- Making the face look 3D, from different angles Here is our class syllabus: Lesson 1: Proportions & hair from the front view Lesson 2: Proportions & hair from the side/profile view Lesson 3: Three-quarters (angled) view; "foreshortening" the features Lesson 4: Adding shadows & embellishments (piercings, freckles, wrinkles, teeth, etc.) This class is part of my "Draw Together" series. For each lesson, we'll use photo references as inspiration for our sketches. Students will be able to see both the reference and my drawing, and they will follow along with me step-by-step! Every few steps (or upon request) we'll pause so I can give each student personal feedback and corrections if needed-- for those who are shy, feedback is not required, but I can assure you that I've already seen all the mistakes at one time or another! We're all growing in our skills. Students who wish to add their own unique finishing details are enthusiastically encouraged to do so :). ************************************************************************ To see more of Ms. Kristy's classes, visit my teacher profile here: https://outschool.com/teachers/Kristine-Mankin#us3u0MdGLD

Figure drawing is my favorite art discipline! I have years of experience creating my own drawings and sculptures, using the human form as inspiration, and I always brought my enjoyment and expertise to my students when we created figurative artworks. I have taught figure and portrait drawing to elementary, junior high, and high school age students for over a decade, and look forward to meeting more young artists who want to learn this skill!
