Faces & Expressions
In this era of digital cameras, why would an artist spend hours drawing the human face when it only takes a second to “point and shoot”? Think about a time you’ve photographed a loved one but felt the photo didn’t resemble the person at all. It isn’t the camera that’s to blame; it simply caught an expression uncharacteristic of the model. As artists we use intuition and skill to create images that capture not only the likeness but also the depth of an individual’s personality. In this book I’ll share some of the skills that have helped me most. Remember: Taking extra time to think about a subject’s unique character provides the inspiration needed to create a true and expressive drawing. So let’s pick up our pencils and get to work!
