Description
Welcome to the Introduction to portrait drawing with pencil! In this course you will learn how to draw human facial features, first separately and then when they all come together in a portrait! I will start from scratch and teach you all the ups and downs and the ways you can use in order to draw perfectly.
So, I start by introducing all the materials that you can use and what are the best ways to use them. At this part, you will learn about different pencils, where and how to use them perfectly to achieve the results you are looking for. Also, other tools accompanying your pencil set such as erasers will be introduced and their usages will be discussed.
Then, through a method in which you can use the axis lines as your guide to draw perfectly, I will teach you how to draw a woman’s eye from different angles. After that, I will focus on female and male eye drawing, shading and hatching, a process in which you will learn how to draw and shade human eyes first separately and then when they come together on the face. This eye drawing and shading focused part is accompanied by an old man’s eye drawing and shading as well.
On the way to go through all the human facial features, I will also focus on the nose and teach you how to observe, draw, hatch and then shade different types of human noses from different angles.
Later on, I will teach you how to draw and shade human lips and create its texture.
In this course, you will also learn how to combine all the facial features you have learned to draw and shade separately and draw a human portrait, step by step. In this way, you start from preliminary drawing and build up your portrait as you gradually add more layers and with them more details on them.

Instructor's CoursesI'm Ava Moradi, an artist with a passion for teaching. I started painting when I was 6 years old and learned different art mediums such as charcoal and pencil drawing, oil on canvas, watercolour, and also glass painting. I consider myself an artist and an art teacher. I have had exhibitions in London, St Moritz, Paris, Seoul, and Beijing. My latest exhibition was for Lightopia light festival, where we won the city life award for exhibition.
After completing my Master’s degree in Art Business, at Sotheby’s Institute of Art, I furthered my education at the University of the Arts of London, Central Saint Martins. Once I finished all my studies, I became a full time art teacher.
Being a teacher taught me a lot; as a person and as an artist. I found my path and passion for creating art and also teaching it. After launching my courses, I gained 10,000+ students and over 4.7 reviews, which made me realise how much of a positive impact they have on people. I spent loads of time and effort to make this ultimate drawing course in the simplest way possible for everyone.
Whether you are an art lover, a beginner artist or trying to improve your art portfolio or simply want to learn another medium, this is the course for you.
When you learn with me, you’ll learn in a fun and efficient way. I put everything about drawing in these courses, I hope you learn all the skills and techniques you need and most importantly, enjoy the courses.
