How To Add LIFE To Your Portraits by Drawing Made Easy

If you're interested in learning how to add life to your portraits and make them more realistic, then you must watch the video we've just uploaded at ...

All you really need to get started in drawing is a pencil and paper.
However, to get the most out of this course, consider purchasing the following:
Three pencils, either charcoal or graphite, in hardnesses 2H, HB, and 4B. Most of your work will be done with those three pencils.
If you want to invest in a wider range, of course that is your choice.
You won’t need a pencil harder than a 3H or softer than a 6B for any of the techniques in this course.
A kneaded eraser (or two or threeß)
Blending stomps (also called blending stumps or tortillons) in a variety of sizes
A blending chamois cloth or a piece of white felt
A sketchbook of drawing paper (for finished drawings I recommend 140# acid free paper)
Inexpensive hand-held pencil sharpeners and a piece of medium sandpaper
Frisket film, tracing paper, and something with a fine tip that won’t tear paper, such as a stylus, bamboo skewer or sharpened dowel
Once you have your supplies gathered, take some time to acquaint yourself with how to hold your pencil to access the tip (a basic writing hold) or the side (the hold you use to put down tone).
Warm Regards
