Students will follow along with a teacher-led demonstration as we practice drawing a face together. We will begin by sketching out guidelines for the size and placement of the facial features, from a side/profile view. I'll demonstrate the basics of drawing eyes, nose, mouth, ears, and hair while students follow along. We'll end class with a completed and proportionate human portrait! My goal is for students to end class with the confidence to continue drawing proportionate faces on their own. ***************************************** If you're new to Outschool you can follow this link for some handy tips to get started! https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1k0xR4oZLyBipJ1w4HtgeTq9Ok7qD9JB3tL_x5KpdpUw/edit?usp=sharing To see more of Ms. Kristy's classes, visit my teacher profile here: https://outschool.com/teachers/Kristine-Mankin#us3u0MdGLD

Face & 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 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!Reviews
