Love doing these drawing with you. I screen shot your photos and then I can use edit to turn them upside down or zoom a little to see more detail. Always love your selection of portraits . Thanks so much. It’s fun and challenging .
@@drawwithchris the subtle value changes in the light side of the face to help sculpt it, using your knowledge of anatomy rather than relying on the image. It was also helpful to just watch your process. I am fairly new to your channel but I recognised you from the NMA beginners course :) I am fairly confident with my figure drawing to the extent that I feel I am ready to start studying anatomy. However, my head drawing is lacking in comparison, though I have improved a lot this past month. Watching your videos is helping too :)
Very cool, my biggest problem from observing is getting right proportion. Because if you got it right everything looks in place. Mostly I don't get it right. Are there any advice on that? Maybe I should be using grids for guide?
@@drawwithchris Thank you sir. I checked your other videos, I got some ideas out of it indeed, Plus I am kind a curious...do you feel that you are already mastered the drawing or do you still see ways to improve? You have lots of knowledge indeed.
I have a question Chris: Is "exaggerate" means i don't have to draw exactly same proportion of the photo? I always trying to copy 100% of the photo, that is wrong?
Consistently getting good facial likenesses (or inability to) is probably the main thing that has kept me from really trying to make a living off my work.

This is so helpful! I’ve been struggling on likeliness a lot
Thank you 🙏
thanks for sharing! Love the way you explain it!

It would help if we saw the photograph as you were drawing !
Could you include it when you do the initial line drawing? Thank you for all the delicate, inspiring content 🌱
Thank you 🙏

Very educational. Thanks a lot!
Thank you 🙏
This is exactly how I want to draw portraits!
How do I improve my portrait skills? By drawing faces more or are there any other ways?
Thank you 🙏 yes practice, find a good mentor and a peer group
Hey Chris ! Can u plzz make a video on "How to develop dexterity ?"
Good idea thank you. If you have my life drawing book there is a section on dexterity exercises
What technique are you using to exaggerate his features.

I try to get the vertical, and horizontal 1/2s right first then the 1/3rds. There's a video on this my live stream archive

Hi Chris, do you do commission work? If so what's the best way to contact you?
Hi Nat. Yes occasionally. Email is the best way or Instagram
I just have one question, what if you can't find a feature to exaggerate? Maybe this is because I can't observe well but still
Good question. Some people do have “plain” faces
@@drawwithchris So what do you recommend for those kind of faces?
I have a question Chris: Is "exaggerate" means i don't have to draw exactly same proportion of the photo? I always trying to copy 100% of the photo, that is wrong?
Exaggeration is a way to interpret the subject. It's better to interpret than to just copy
For the algo
Thank you. Appreciate it

It is very challenging
