Day 33: No name for the shrimp yet but instead a face #tutorial that I found on Skillshare. I am not sure I understood it entirely but a nice face appeared :) Or what do you think? What would be the next step to improve this face?
The instruction goes like this:
"Drawing the human face
Beauty is technically subjective, but really our eyes look for symmetry and order in a chaotic world. This is why we think the extremely symmetrical face of Denzel Washington is beautiful, while country singer Lyle Lovett’s cockeyed smile, well, not so much. This is why when you are doing life drawing, you should follow certain rules of the face:
Draw a circle.
Draw a cross, separating the head into four equal parts.
Draw a square just inside the circle. The three horizontal lines now become the hairline, browline, and nose line.
Draw a line from the nose to chin that’s equal to the brow to nose. Connect a curved chin from the bottom corners of the square to the bottom of that line.
Draw a horizontal line at the exact middle of the face. That’s the eyeline.
Now that you have it marked, you can fill in your facial features, following certain rules.
The eyes are one eye-width apart.
The nostrils are as wide as the inside corners of the eyes.
The top of the mouth is just a little bit higher than halfway between nose and chin lines.
Take a step back — look at your face. Wow, you’ve drawn a darn believable person!"
