Starting a portrait drawing is often an intimidating experience. Doing it with speed is an even more difficult skill to master, but fear not, it is possible!

In this course I will show you exactly how to start a portrait with the kind of speed you’ve only dreamed of up to this point. We’ll do it by editing out everything but the essentials you need to know to make it happen, and jettison everything else that is holding you back–like details, textures and pesky anatomy.

Many art professions require the artist to draw quickly and accurately. Professions such as 2D animator, storyboard artist, portrait artist, illustrator, caricature artist and concept artist all demand speed due to fast paced schedules.

Believe me I know. I have worked in all of these capacities over the years. One thing I struggled with was speed. But I have discovered some secrets that I want to share with you so you can experience the joy of sketching with more freedom, speed and accuracy than ever before.

Whether you are just a casual doodler who loves drawing portraits or a serious artist with sights on becoming/being a pro this short, highly focused course is going to show you how to start portraits at high speed.

After this course you will be able to:

use simple shapes to begin quickly and establish a strong read
understand the power of gesture to create action and attitude
find the vertical and horizontal centerline to help place features easily
discover and use only the essential marks needed to convey your idea
know the secret of ear placement to instantly show the head in 3D space
make better drawing decisions that set you up for success
In this drawing demo I will show 8 basic positions that will help you block-in the head in most any orientation you want. That’s my promise.
