Mimicry to Mastery: Drawing Portraits from Reference

This class will take you through the basics of illustrating from reference. Helping you improve your eye and hand skills in developing likeness in your imagery. This class is great for any skill level, it can help you with a basic understanding of drawing as well as improve the skills of a fine artist. We will go all the way from understanding the anatomy of a face and working with basic shapes to rendering a realistic or stylised portrait (your choice).
