The main proportion of a human head
Here's one good portrait drawing tip for you - One of the main proportions of a human head is as follows: the distance from the bottom of the chin to the eye line is comparable to the distance from the eyes to the top of a head. In other words, the line of eyes divides the height of a head in half. Some models may have slightly different proportions, but this does not diminish this rule. All the classical proportions of a head and face are described in depth in the Life Drawing Academy course
