Episodes include;Realism FundamentalsNoseEyeEarMouthSmileNeck and ShoulderHairThe overall objective of this course is to not only teach the techniques and knowledge required to render beautiful photorealistic portraiture, but also to instil them. Throughout the series, students get the opportunity to repeat newly learned skills until they become accustomed. Episode 1 - 'Realism Fundamentals' covers key techniques that are important to master in order to get the most out of this course. Taking time perfecting these basic techniques will enhance your skillset and improve your course studies immensely. Each individual drawing study builds on the last and has been organised in such a way so as to further your skill set as you progress, either by introducing new tools or techniques, increasing time and so improving patience, or practicing newly learned techniques to hone skill.Completing smaller studies will not only help keep your attention focused but will also help prevent you from feeling overwhelmed, tired, and frustrated. Patience is such an important skill to master in regard to realism, and as such, has been taken into consideration throughout this course - All studies have been organised and presented in such a way so as to help improve patience.Knowing how to utilise a full set of values is foundational for rendering photorealistic portraits, but if you place deep black charcoal directly on top of graphite, the contrast will look too stark, so I'll show you how to layer different pencil compositions to maintain a consistency in tone and keep all values in harmony with one another.Start your personal art journey today with 'Daily Realism Drawing Exercises to Improve Your Portraits'
