Portraits portray and show likeness, and beyond that can show a sense of the person, who the subject is. Learn the key concepts for portrait drawing to accurately render line, shape, proportion and negative space while working from the model. Students use drawing media, including charcoal and graphite, as they progress from simple lines toward a more nuanced understanding of tonal description.
