I've been DYING to get this lesson into your hands for weeks!! I get asked all the time how to draw children's faces by my students and how kids' face drawing differs from the whimsical and semi-realistic portraits we usually create. Well, today I'm finally releasing one of these lessons with answers to ALL your questions about proportions, shading, and anything else you might be wondering about! Let's dive in!! *All product links are affiliate & for U.S. residents only.* I kept supplies fairly minimal for this lesson. You could TOTALLY do the entire thing in colored pencil, but that is WAY too tedious for me with all the endless shading and layering!! LOL. Instead, I opted for stabilos because I knew I could activate them quickly and move on with my life :) Use whatever you have on hand and love most!

What Fans Are SayingKaren, you are absolutely fabulous! You make me feel like I can draw anything. I have recently retired and finally have the time to do some of the art that I have loved since I was in school. I am really at the beginning of my art journey and I hope to learn as much as I can. Thank you for all you do. |
