Have you ever tried to draw a face looking to the side but it just didn't look quite right? Drawing faces can be difficult, and drawing the profile of a face can be even more difficult. That’s why I created this class with step by step instructions on how to draw a facial profile. We will discuss the proportions of the face and how to draw each facial feature from the side. Of course, every face is different, and so perfection is not required! Each student needs a pencil, eraser, a ruler or straight edge, a small bowl that will fit in the top half of their paper, and preferably sketching paper. (Any blank paper can be used if sketching paper is not available.) I will be demonstrating the techniques with my students and working right along with them! Art is about self expression and learning, and I hope to create a fun, interactive environment where students can develop a love for drawing while building their confidence in a new skill. If you would like to review the basic proportions of a face before taking this intermediate class, please sign up for my beginner’s class “Beginner’s Drawing- How to Draw a Face!”

Teacher expertise and credentials
California Teaching Certificate in English to Speakers of Other Languages
I am a professional artist, specializing in oil portrait paintings, and I have had the privilege of displaying my artwork in venues across the country. I believe that art is about self expression and learning, and I hope to create a fun, interactive environment where students can develop a love for art while building their confidence in a new skill.
I have always struggled with expecting “perfection” of myself, especially in my art, so I am constantly reminding my students, as well as myself, that perfection is not required, and that practice, not unreasonable expectations, is what a advances our skills.
My joy in teaching comes from the comments of my students and their parents, expressing that they created something they didn’t know was possible.
