Drawing Made Simple
Lesson 1 of 3 Painting Portraits
This lesson is about breaking down art to its barest essentials. Daniel will go through the Bargue method of drawing, which can train you to make exact recreations of what you see. This can supercharge the skills of any beginner, but even experienced artists will find the technique helps to break bad habits. This first lesson will focus most specifically on eyes and mouths, two of the most important aspects when making any portrait.
Eye of the Beholder
Do two or three drawings of eyes, using the Bargue method demonstrated in the lesson. Take your time and focus on simply matching what you see in the reference plate. Upload your progress to the Learn Squared homework gallery.
Mouthing Off
Do two or three drawings of mouths, using the Bargue method demonstrated in the lesson. Take your time and focus on simply matching what you see in the reference plate. Upload your progress to the Learn Squared homework gallery.

Lesson 3
Portrait Drawing
Now that you're able to accurately draw what you see, you can begin creating your own original character portrait. You'll begin by coming up with a concept and gathering references. You'll then use this inspiration to thumbnail, build out, and add value to the image. After this, Daniel will help you to add details to your black and white drawing, before getting everything ready for color in the next lesson.
