There are many sources to find reference photos for your drawings. My favorite ways are Pinterest and taking my own photos.

I made a few quick sketches like this one to pick my favorite size, proportions and expression. These are often subtle nuances but quick sketches are great exercise to warm up and practice portrait drawing.

You can improve your drawing throughout the portrait creation process. If you don't press the colored pencil too hard, you'll be able to erase it. Don't focus too much on it though. It's easy to fall into the trap of constantly improving one piece. Instead, I recommend creating more quick studies and portraits.
