Description
There are many ways to draw a portrait, almost as many ways as there are faces. Believe it or not, it doesn't have to take thousands of hours of laborius study. I can improve your portrait drawing instantly just by handing you the correct tools!
I can teach you to avoid the pitfalls most beginners fall into and the secret to portraits that impress. Maybe you don't believe you could ever create a good portrait? I'm here to show you you can!
Faces are fun! This is a great opportunity to improve your skills and your confidence, whether you are a beginner or have been practising for a while, but never had the right guidance.
What even is a portrait? Open your mind to different styles and techniques. How we recognise other people? It's not what you think! Learn the key features of the face; which are worth spending your time on and which should be flatteringly blurred out? Unlock the secret to achieving a good likeness.
