Accentuation of proper detail

Welcome to my overview on sketching a face.

The main focus of this video it to share specific details that I have memorized when drawing a face— in this case a woman.

These details are very specific for high speed deadlines, and are very important to focus on for accentuation of the right details in a fast delivery...


I work in the commercial art industry and am called upon to turn around a high volume of work in a short time. Just a week prior to this video, one job had the client needing 4 drawings within 8 hours. But in the first couple hours of that 8 hour time, I also have to delivery rough pencils for approval to make sure the composition and layout (as well as the look and feel of the people/characters) read very quickly, and clear. There really isn’t time to sit and adjust each feature as if working on a portrait commission. You have lay down the details fast, and move on--- Or miss the deadline.


So I hope you enjoy this video, and that it will give you a basic understanding of the foundation of how my creative process works when I am working on any projects— fast or slow. And I hope you will also check out my other videos on here, as well as stay tuned for many more to come.

  • Students will have a base understanding of the importance of accentuation of basic detail in a face.

Excellent material. Even though he's using an outdated version of Photoshop the techniques and general tools / settings are still highly relevant.

Easy guide to remembering proportional distance between features. Clear instruction. Some basic drawing knowledge helps but is not necessary to follow this study guide. Great course.
