Have you been working on your drawing skills but are intimidated by the thought of drawing faces? In this “live” online class, we will be examining typical proportions for laying out an adult facial portrait, and discussing how those size relationships are affected by various facial gestures. I will be guiding you through some steps and offering tips and techniques for making more realistic drawings based on your observations of your own face. All you need is some paper, a pencil, an eraser, and access to your own face via a mirror. This class is open to a variety of age levels and is geared toward beginners. There will be opportunities for you to submit questions throughout, and a chance to show off your work at the end (if you choose)! Face your drawing fears! You’ll be so glad that you did!

Supplies needed: Pencil(s), eraser, paper or sketchbook, ruler or straight-edge, a positionable mirror (larger than 5” x 7” but 8” x 10”-11” x 14” is ideal- that can be placed in front of you, next to your computer or other device)

Optional (but recommended) Supplies: washable or dry erase marker, paper towel
