The human face is endless in its variation and possibilities. When we look at each other, we see ourselves. We look, connect and understand. Artists have created portraits of bliss, anguish, hatred, hostility and happiness by representing the human head and this practice has continued through the many historical artistic movements.

Whether you are drawing for the very first time or have some experience, Portraiture Drawing Course for Beginners will help you develop your skill and technique.

There are three tutorial sessions and three sessions with a life model who will pose during this portraiture drawing course to give you the optimal learning experience.

So, whether you're a novice eager to embrace the beauty of portraiture or an experienced artist yearning to further refine your craft, this course promises an enriching and rewarding journey into the captivating world of human faces. Allow your skills to flourish and your understanding of human connection to deepen as you breathe life into your creations.

By the end of this portraiture drawing class, you should have:

  • Learned about the anatomical structure of the human face and head

  • Practised and developed different drawing techniques

  • Gained a practical understanding of observation and life-drawing skills

  • Learned how to set up a model to take the best advantage of their expression and unique presence
