The Drawn & Painted Portrait

In this course, Stephanie takes you through the basics of drawing portraits down to the finer details. Learn about proportion, structure, and how to draw facial features by drawing three different types of portraits. Next, Students transition from black and white graphite to colour in paint. Photo references will be initially used, then finishing the course by working from a live model.
