define the light

you should understand what follows:
Take care where you choose to position
them on the page as this will affect the overall balance of the portrait.

At this stage, the drawing is no more than a set of carefully measured
features that establish the final proportions of the portrait.
Most artists
make the greatest number of changes at the start of a drawing.
If you get
the correct relationship between the eyes, nose and mouth, you will end up
with a good likeness.
Our Pencil Portrait lesson explains and illustrates
the step by step drawing techniques involved in creating the portrait of a
young girl.
Such an approach was used to build our pencil portrait above.

This is a strong compositional starting point for a three quarter view
portrait.
Note that these measurements should be similar.
Therefore it is
important to draw lightly at first, as lightly drawn lines are easier to
erase.
The size and position of the other features are directly related to
the scale and placement of the eyes.
The size and position of the other
features are directly related to the scale and placement of the eyes.
The
main features are then framed by the outline of the face and hair, while the
neck and shoulders form an angular support for the head.
The general
proportions of a head that we outlined on previous pages are ideal for
drawing realistic heads from your imagination.

I should also mention that I think that we could try to determine the monitoring of the line with great
care before thinking about the light;
Nevertheless, it should be interesting to study also the extension of the line with
brand-new innovations;
what are the main interests of the light data analysis and the collaboration with the line management?
