    Free download: Practical tips for drawing a head in profile

    Get a free guide with tips for drawing the head in profile. Drawing a head in profile can seem like one of the great challenges of portraiture. Unlike the frontal view, the profile requires a more precise understanding of the structure of the skull, the actual proportions of the face and the relationship between volumes. However, with a few technical tricks and a good observation base, this angle becomes much more accessible. To help you in this process, we put at your disposal a free download with practical tips for drawing a head in profile. This resource is part of the course Drawing striking portraits with colored pencils and is intended as a clear guide to improve your understanding of portraiture from one of the most expressive points of view. What you'll find in the free download. The downloadable material is designed to accompany you step by step in drawing the human profile. In it you will find: Essential construction tricks, such as the correct placement of the face line, ear, chin and neck. Recommendations for measuring proportions, maintaining visual balance and avoiding deformations. Clear indications to understand the relationship between forehead, nose, lips and chin. Practice suggestions, from quick studio sketches to more detailed and expressive portraits. It is a resource designed for both those who are new to portraiture and those who want to strengthen their technical base.
