This philosophy and methodology relies on a holistic approach to observation, analysis and critical-thinking honed through time and patience. • Start with a solid foundation - Classical bust drawing is a must. These lessons aid in constructing volume in your drawing and introduce concepts of structure. • Move on to sketching - The best way to train your observation skills. Anatomy, value and state of mind are the focus of these lessons. • 12 step-by-step tutorials put it all together - Form and spirit combine along with more clearly defined details to bring life and dimension to your portraits. • An extensive gallery of beautifully and classically executed portraits, figures, sketches and busts serves as inspiration.
