Portrait painting or portrait drawing is a genre within both painting and drawing. In this genre, the artist’s goal is to depict the visual appearance of the subject or person whose portrait is being created. Here are some basic guidelines to follow while drawing a portrait.
When looking at the face you will draw for the first time, you should carefully observe the geometrical proportions of the various parts of the face, including the eyes, nose, mouth, hair, and other elements that make up a human face.
Artists should not overlook the differences in size and shape of the upper and lower eyelids. Observe closely how the upper eyelid covers a portion of the entire eye. This will be your first step in drawing the eyes; after that, start drawing the iris and then sketch the eyelids around it.
It is a common belief that both eyes of a person are identical in size and shape. However, this may not be true for everyone. Our eyes are not perfect mirror images of each other. Additionally, the shape of an eye varies with the movement of the eyelids. Wind can also affect the position of the eyelids and the shape of the eyes. So while drawing the eyes, keep these factors in mind.
At this stage, we won’t concern ourselves with the detailed aspects of the eyes, such as shading and other features. These will be taken care of after the entire face has been drawn. Once the eyes are drawn as described above, you can proceed further.
