You Can Sketch Faces!

Understanding Form, Proportions and Color

Human beings are one of the most popular and fun subjects in art, but we as artists sometimes struggle when working on faces. In this class we will look closely at faces, and learn the techniques for quickly and correctly capturing them in quick sketches. I will be using mostly watercolor for my demonstrations with addition of some water soluble pencils, markers and oil pastels, but you can start practicing and applying the information from this class even with just a regular pencil and some sketch paper. These principles are my check list for fast figure sketches, but they are also applicable when working on longer and more detailed pieces, like portraits. I will also reveal several secrets that will help you to make your portraits and figurative sketches more expressive, dynamic and appealing to viewers.
