Solly: An online portrait drawing session

Lizet Dingemans

This week, Lizet Dingemans explores the contrast between mass and line in portrait drawing, examining the strengths and limitations of each approach as she captures model Solly. Using willow charcoal and charcoal pencil on charcoal-toned white paper, she shifts between bold, expressive shapes and precise linear detail to build form and structure in the portrait.
