Description So many categories now... Been a long time since I uploaded anything. Doesn't mean I'm not busy, thought.

So uh, this is my practice for drawing the human facial expressions. All from that great book of Gary Faigin that I can't find anywhere here in France. It's out of stock since more than eight years...

Hmm, maybe I should upload more often over here.

I have that very same book! It's marvelous

I especially like the three drawings in red. They have a soft, finished quality.

Thanks a lot ^^ They're made out of sanguine pencil, I love that tool. I can smudge it easily with a finger ^^

And yeah, that book is so wonderful. It has helped me so much, especially for the whole human face in general. Understanding the way an eye is placed into the orbit makes it really easier to draw, especially when you practice it for a week. xD

Thanks for the comment
