THURS. 11/17 Portraits

Ashley Hurd

Saroeuth Chhoeung

Students made portrait drawings of each other. We discussed the proportions of the head and made studies from skulls to start. Ashley has drawn a dynamic and exciting image by using fluid lines and rich values.  Note the volume achieved by addressing the skull structure under the skin.  Saroeuth's drawing is equally powerful in mood and emotion.  His use of additive and reductive techniques captures of the volumes of the face while adding textural variety.
