This weekend workshop will investigate the structure of the three-dimensional human head as it is rendered onto the two-dimensional plane as in a drawing. 

​

Through demonstrations and practice you will find yourself getting comfortable with the main proportions and then the individual features of the head and their relationships to each other. Then you will look at how these elements change as the head begins to rotate around an axis from face-on to a profile view. 

​

By applying the ellipse and ideas of perspective to the structure you will start to develop a clearer understanding of the three-dimensional form in space. 

​

We will draw using some established models of the head as useful frameworks and then start using tone to build up drawings into the three dimensional form.
