 One person's basic shape is not accurate. Including the head of momentum, the head of the outline and contours of the face, facial location, and the neck and shoulders portrait relations.
Second, do not understand the structure of the head. Lack of anatomical knowledge, can not see through the essence of the phenomenon, clinging to the bones and major muscles to performance, the loose form, line, light and dark can not effect so.
three, three-dimensional concepts are not strong. Because three-dimensional geometric legible gypsum, and the head shape is more complex, often fall into neglect among local portray three-dimensional observation and expression, lack of depth.
IV, the overall feeling is not strong. Taken the trouble to pull the eyes, nose and mouth. Hair, ears hastily, neck and shoulder downplay the relationship, rather than clutter the screen coordination.
Fifth, pay attention to the location of the parietal bone. Cover the head by the hair, often shortened between the frontal and parietal bones, looking extremely uncomfortable.

All this suggests that some candidates still can not grasp the overall sense of the macro, master the basic shape, in-depth attention to complete processing in the picture, are often bound by the minutiae. Need to improve the artistic accomplishments, the observation method, the steps aspects of painting needs to be improved.

painting steps and methods.

first step, the idea of ​​composition. Candidates develop before the painting characteristics of observed objects, the habit of brewing their own emotions. According to the object of occupation, age, temperament, hobbies, etc to consider how the performance of desire to achieve what the final results. Intimate knowledge of write boldly chic. Do not rush to paint, the composition is appropriate when the attention character and characters in front of the location of the space to be bigger. Although it is cliché, but it is decided to complete the whole picture is the key to comfort.

second step, pay close attention to contour. It is very important. Towering building from the ground, there is no solid base of the wall would be unthinkable. Outline the base of the wall should pay attention to standards, we must grasp the basic head shape, facial features, location, location of light and dark boundary line, the relationship between head and shoulder.

potential to draw outline of the whole must be observed, the overall comparison, multi-use guides to help determine the location. Pay close attention when the grasping shape features, like to draw. Shape began to take shape, in contrast. Park in front of artists like silhouette with scissors, and easily the characters emerge, although too small can not see the internal structure, we still can recognize him. Some students pay no attention to this step, the shape is still very vague, they rush to paint the senses. The picture painted so how can an object approaching it!

in the picture on the basis of quasi-shape, facial features location also need to make great efforts. Features in the painting to the attention of the use of the axis, in addition to an absolute positive, the central axis was isolated according to the first line of dynamic, many students do not understand this, picture a little side point of view, the first turn is not always the past, of course, feel very poor. Location features five three-stop according to the basic law, the common feature to find the image of people, draw people's different. Profile in the fight to the attention of eyebrows, eyes, nose, ear length and width and thickness of the position. If this step is not allowed to do not draw depth, but not on the light and dark. Note painted eyebrows up and down orbital bone cavity through the temporal bone at the point and turn presented convex brow eyebrow deep short. The four corners of the eye will have to draw a parallel line is, otherwise there is the level of the eyes, feeling uncomfortable. Painting eyes is very important, on the eyelids and lower eyelids are different, generally heavier on the eyes because of the thickness, and the eyelashes deep shadow on the eye, often the whole picture here is the deepest, very God, Easy to pack the eyelid into the eye. The lower lid by the light, bright, or makeup on like a play. Characterization is also related to the mouth of the person's face. First, to determine the thickness of the upper and lower lips, but also pay attention to the lips can not use wire hook too dead, upturned mouth drooping, very subtle. Draw eyes, noses and mouth contact with the ear together, some candidates unwilling to draw the ears, and even the ears as a burden. Or false is not the past, the impact of space, or jump badly undermine the whole.

head light and dark boundary line is to determine the depth, volume key, the most prominent cheekbones at the boundary line location, high and low, with prominent but also soft, visual features may be. Despite the light at the cheekbones are not so obvious, but must be symmetrical with the dark paint. By the way, the character sketch is very important that symmetry, such as eyes, ears, two nostrils, etc. should also be considered.

natural hair color is black. As long as careful analysis, not be in the dark, it was also light and dark contrast. Hair is formed in the skull, hair, light and shade structures must be considered. Hair and strive to paint a fluffy, rich texture.

third step, in-depth characterizations. This time to look it over carefully to see which parts of the deepest, most intense, to start from these places, usually start with eyebrows, eyes, nose, temporal bone at the start, once you can grasp the characteristics of the relationship between big draw, But we must hold on to some back and forth to avoid staring at the painting, the local paint over the dysfunctional relationship. What is the first painting, then painting what can be considered based on the object characteristics, such as the point of some bias, more prominent cheekbones, some of Jian Mei strong and rich personality and eyes that sparkle, then this started.


in-depth, we should always keep the overall relationship, understand that a picture is good or bad depends on the total picture of the overall sense, a complete sense, if only to stay in the pen and ink facial features, and that is the finishing touch to the neglect of other aspects, the whole screen to not be good. We look at the exhibition, always standing far away looked over the whole picture, for some part of the interest, then approached the micro, when no one is looking straight into the painting before the exhibition staring local perspective, if that ye not funny? The first in-depth look at the whole picture brightness contrast, I compared it as a major contradiction. Then the ratio of dark and dark, bright and light than I would than as a secondary contradiction. Secondary contradictions principal contradiction decided to seize the great relationship, but also pay attention to the subtle relationship between the main there are times throughout the picture, there can be orderly in-depth. Each depth layer, from the most convex at the beginning, led the Ministry of times out. Draw attention to the orbicularis eye muscle around the relationship between the paintings considered orbicularis oris mouth block plane, drawing attention to the nasal bone nasal, nose and cheek of the contact. At the same time, we should consider the local in the face of the proportional relationship. In summary, always consider the overall depth of, primary and secondary proper place.

fourth step adjustment. Candidates generally likes to draw when he kept down the painting, in the end, was to breathe, however. How can there be time to pondering what, aside 15-20 minutes to adjust the relationship between large. In fact, the idea is no good. Adjust both the depth is summarized, so that the overall effect of more complete picture, to do subtraction, the minute details together, strengthen the great relationship. Adjustment is a comprehensive reflection of the candidates artistic accomplishments, what kind of picture effect to show in front of the examiner, to how the picture effect of the many outstanding candidates, this is worth thinking about.
to draw a good portrait, in particular, like to draw. To avoid the formulation, conceptualization to the stereotyped characters, thousands of people describe mechanical side, as if characters in the image is carved out of a model, always so dull and lifeless. People like to draw, first, Vivid, focusing on characters carved inner character and emotions. As long as the usual practice, take note of eyebrows, eyes, mouth and the performance of emotional changes in the look the most natural, vivid moments to paint, you can make the picture lively. I think Vivid is the highest requirement of portrait painting, never before in the skills of pursuing.

in short, to draw a good portrait sketch, get a solid foundation, accurate modeling capabilities, they must depend on to get more paint. As the saying goes, While also drawing more optimistic about the scope and improve the taste, and then boldly to try many ways to continuously improve the level of painting, to realize their ideals.
