I am trying to eventually get to the point where I can draw a portrait from reference. So far I have been trying to focus on the very basics and to get an understanding of proportions as well as how light and shadow interacts. I can follow tutorials just fine, the end result does not look exaxctly like the tutorial but there is a likeliness. However I have absolulety no idea where to begin if I want to draw a portrait by looking at a reference picture on pinterest etc Here are some of the end results: the first is a tutorial I followed (Proko) the second as well the last is an image of pinterest by an artist named vornikow that I tried to emulate. Here is the link to the original image: https://pin.it/aKyVC8S Any and all critic is wanted! Thanks :)
