This is the first attempt at the front facing figure. I'll do a Superman at different stages to see how the practice is helping the image.

Learning to Draw the Human Figure and Head

This Blog is for me and my youngest daughter Fliss.
Being self taught I have never concentrated hard enough on this particular skill. Fliss is just starting in this area so what better time to put some effort into acquiring those skills and helping Fliss along the way.
Anyway here go. I will be using various methods and media to create the images and a brief explanation of how and why.
It will be interesting to see the progress.
To start I will draw a head, figure, hands and feet before I start studying; then compare at the end of the programme.
