Course Highlights


Drawing Facial Poses

As the head is tilted to suit different poses, these facial guidelines will curve upwards or downwards and the spaces between them will alter as they follow the contour of the egg shape. The same proportions can be used for drawing a profile of a head by extending the horizontal lines and drawing each element from the side.

Below are illustrations of different facial poses with the facial guidelines labeled.
