About This Book

The ultimate guide to learning how to easily draw stunning, realistic faces. The human head is one of the most challenging yet rewarding subjects to draw. In this immersive book, popular YouTube drawing instructor Braden Messer breaks down the basics of how to master classic portrait drawing techniques using simple, step-by-step projects. By demystifying classic drawing styles such as the Loomis Method (which utilizes sections to depict the human head) and the Asaro head (which helps artists fully understand the planes of the face) readers will have a solid foundation to work with when it comes to depicting any face.

Messer will also share his easy techniques for constructing eyes, noses, lips, ears, and hair as well as placing these features on a head with accurate proportions. With this book, readers will build their understanding of the anatomy of the human head along with their muscle memory and confidence to be able to create beautiful portraits with ease.
