Day 13:

Here we go with another assignment of 6 5-minutes sketches of a female head in different posses (5 out of six references are from the lesson “Intermediate Head Construction with Steve Huston”). I used a 3B pencil for this exercise.

Day 14,

For this one, I used as reference the same bust as for the work I did on day 12, but from a different angle. I used a black and a blue pen (0.2 and 0.4) on paper.

Day 15

Nothing really creative. today. Nevertheless, I enjoyed a good time practicing Rilley’s method of drawing the head and the face. I did a couple more sheets and I think I’m going to do something similar tomorrow in order to get used to all these lines and planes. For this exercise, I used a variety of mediums. The sketches you can see here were done with a simple pencil (I guess it was an HB), a black ballpoint pen, and a red pen (0.3).

Day 17

Ok technically speaking this is a study on eyes. Still, eyes seem to be a very important component of the human head, and drawing them from different perspectives looks like a helpful exercise. I used a plate from Charles Bargue’s drawing course as a reference and a 2B pencil to complete this one.
