Re: portrait drawing
Hi !love to draw a portrait but do not know were to start!----------------------------------------------------Hello Zul ! You can start by reading these art instruction books by: Robert Beverly Hale.1) " Anotomy lessons from the great masters."2) " Drawing lessons from the great masters."3)" Master class in figure drawing."These are the best 3 books that I have ever seen, that teach a person how to draw. Read these books over and over, and draw, draw, draw. Good luck !Hello Nick,You seem like a jolly good egg! Especially since you are championing portraiture free. Not so much into drawing but what are you best 3 oil painting portrait books? For what it's worth my best 2 are:Painting Children by Dominic RhubbraHow to Paint Skin Tones Hasel HarrissonNot exactly bedtime reading a non-the-less excellent reference manuals.Cheers................Les
