This workshop is about constructing the head, not drawing a portrait, although a portrait may be drawn using this method.
Beginning with the ball as the basic shape of the human head, we will follow a process using the Loomis method (Andrew Loomis*) to construct a human head with a simple line drawing. The method focuses on shape, proportion, and structure of the head. Instruction will not address detailed rendering, edge control, value (other than a simple separation between areas of light and dark), or color. There'll be opportunity to draw the head in profile, full frontal, and 3/4 view. You'll draw -- not from a photo -- but from one of the busts (fondly referred to as the deadheads) in the classroom.
