Join Lizet Dingemans for this month&rsquo;s free one hour graphite portrait session with model Mark T, looking at comparative measuring, structure and edgework. We&rsquo;ll begin with a light block-in to place the head, centre line and main proportions, then build the features step by step before developing the values. The focus is on controlling edges, knowing when to keep things sharp and when to soften, and using light and shadow to describe form. You&rsquo;ll see how to keep detail quiet in the shadows, lift back into the beard for texture, and finish with a few well placed accents and highlights.
Materials used: - Graphite pencils and sticks (H, HB, B, 3B to 4B) - White paper - Grey kneaded or putty eraser - Blending tools such as finger, stump, soft brush, tissue or kitchen roll
