Learn to draw portraits! In this drawing course, professional artist Kate Meyer will
guide you through a step-by-step tutorial that illustrates a classical approach, the grid system, for
drawing a life-like portrait with pencil.
Start your amazing journey to portrait
drawing in this three-hour class.
All you'll need is to find a photograph of whoever you want to draw. Everything else will be
provided.
Tips on choosing a photo to draw from:
- Be sure the face is clearly visible.
- A close-up shot works the best. The most detailed, the better.
- The larger the face on the photo, the easier it will be to draw.
- Please be sure the photo is sharp; blurry images are difficult to work with.
- The photo must be printed; digital images will not work in this class.
- Contact me if you need help with your photo.
Materials provided:
- Black Warrior HB2 sketching pencil
- One kneadable eraser
- Archive-quality acid-free 9x12-inch sketching paper
- Practice paper
- Blending tissue
- The step-by-step grid method handout sheets
These will be available for class use:
