Is it required to buy a lot of drawing tools to take this class?
For this class you’re going to need pencil and paper, nothing else! If you have an eraser and a sketchbook, it’s even better. The goal is to make you life easier, not the contrary! I’m going to show you some extra tools, but having pencil and eraser is enough.
Project Instructions
The Class Project consists in drawing a head in any position. In this class I’m going to talk about the following views:
- Three-quarter view;
- Profile view;
- Front view;
- Looking upward;
- Looking downward.
Then, at the end of the class you’ll be way more confident to draw portraits, even if the subject is in a “difficult view”, whatever that means!
