How to Get Good Portrait and Figure Drawing Skills
Discover how to draw good portraits by watching video lessons from the Life Drawing Academy art course.
There is nothing difficult in drawing portraits. Every child can do it. However, there are "naïve portraits" and "professional portraits." There are amateur artists who do primitive works of art that are very impressive and eloquent, but such artworks are labeled as "naïve art." This is because an artist doesn't know the laws of constructive drawing or chooses not to use them. And there is a completely different level of portrait drawing when an artist knows the anatomy of a human head, its proportions and construction, can use constructive drawing principles, and has proficient skills of tonal rendering. To draw good portraits, you have to know those things and to draw what you know.
