- Step-by-step demonstration. Lynne Chapman, award-winning illustrator, shows how to draw a child's face from imagination, getting realistic proportions from the front and in profile. Lynne then demonstrates how to play with these proportions to create different child characters, suitable for a children's book.
Thank you for your hard work and for making it clear to people who are working on a project of writing books for children.
Thank you for the video. I had no idea! Neat to watch a little face "come alive" with character.
Another great video Lynne!
Her characters are incredible! Even for just ordinary looking toons
This was THE most helpful video in designing characters!
thank you so much everyone. Glad you enjoyed the film.
Yes, my books are coloured up in pastels. There is a video showing a demonstration of me creating a pastel piece, if you go to my channel. There's also a link to it from my website at lynnechapman.co.uk

i would love to see a book from you on illustration techniques!
Wow! When you drew the first face, my first thought was, " So that's what Mr. Martinez was trying to teach me!" He was my art teacher in school. Lol!!! Boy did I just feel dumb! 😂😂 He had us drawn face one day with shadows and my face had a bunch of shadows! 🙄😂 Not normal shadows like you just did right on the inside of the nose and where the nose joined the forehead right next to the eye! I hope that makes sense!
Hope it's helped! :-)
Love your videos they are so helpful. Xx

Just found your channel and enjoying your videos. You are an excellent teacher - do you teach at an educational institution as well as illustrate?
Thank you so much for that wonderfully positive feedback. I'm so sorry for the crazy delay in answering your comment. I have trouble with notifications, so only just saw it.
I have had periods of teaching at further and higher education and also have done one-off workshops with kids in primary schools for many years, but I do less and less teaching these days as I prefer to get on with my work with more focus.
Lovely! Thank u!
did you color it with pastel?
Thanks Uamuin. One day... In the meantime, if you go to my blog, you will find lots and lots of illustrated, detail articles about illustration techniques and process.
I found this to be very helpful...but how can I make it my own without out copy writing you?
Thanks Elias! :-)
