Hi everyone! Taking a trip down memory lane to my college days, I wanted to share a bit of my portrait drawing practice. From imitating styles to quick sketches and playing with different angles, it's been quite a ride.
Imitation Practice:
Commencing with imitation, I studied and replicated portraits from various artists. This foundational step allowed me to understand diverse techniques, shaping the development of my distinctive style.
Speed Sketching for Expression:
Incorporating speed sketching into my practice focused on capturing facial expressions efficiently.




Exploring Different Angles:
Testing out different perspectives, I experimented with angles and viewpoints, deepening my understanding of three-dimensional facial structures.


Pose and Facial combination :
The combination of pose and facial expression became a vital step in my progress. By blending these elements, I aimed to create portraits that not only captured physical features accurately but also transformed the subject into a different character through subtle emotions.




All my references are sourced from Pinterest, and printing them out enhances precision when imitating.
Tools:
1.Faber-Castell Pencil Set
2.Faber-Castell Art Eraser
3.Mono Zero Elastomer Eraser(thin eraser use to clean the small detail also highlight)
4.Mono graph mechanical pencil
5.Uni A3 Paper 135gsm
