Drawing Portraits for the Absolute Beginner

I started in February learning to sketch. This is a book I have used to help learn and develop techniques from cover to cover. A must have.

As long as you have a decent eye this book works great. Heck even if you dont have a decent eye, practice makes perfect right.Anyways, this book teaches you the basics of portrait drawing. It gets into detail about proportions and details on each part of the face.It touches a little on things like glasses and hats. And walks you step by step through quite a few portraits in the end of the book.Get this! Its great!

Hopefully I will understand the technique sooner rather than later

Don't know where to start? Start by reading this book. I've larned a lot about drawing portraits by using everything I've learned by reading this book. You can too. Why wait, start now.

Bought for my 9 year old . She loves it!

great book easy to follow

Great book for beginners !

The style of sketching I want to do is different from this style, wasn't sure if I wanted to keep it but I think I'm gonna try some of the illistrations and see how I can do with it. There are so many methods/styles of sketching. Really you have to find what works for you.. .
