Portrait Sketch: Whittnie

Nov 22nd, 2009 Posted in Modern Classical Training | one comment »

Here’s a quick 3-hour portrait sketch of Whittnie that I did at the studio during Kate‘s quick portrait sketch class. The exercise is a push towards color accuracy, but is highly dependent on a very good drawing and structural knowledge of the head/portrait. A block-in in 20 minutes is one of the hardest things I find that we do at the studio, though it’s great practice. It’s quite an adrenaline rush. Ay….3 hours flies!

Andrew Loomis and Matthew Innis’ latest blog post on his blog, Underpaintings, offers great reading material for these quick portraits.
