@jackied86313 years ago I am 78 years old and learning to draw - something I've always wanted to do. I happened on this tutorial and although I have never drawn a face thought I'd give it a try. I have now done the exercise 3 times, each one more relaxed and improved. On the 3rd one, I also added some hair, following your "ribbon" analogy. I was astonished. For someone totally unschooled in drawing, I had created a very realistic looking person. I wish I could send it to you for critique. Obviously, it is not perfect (yet!) but to achieve the level I did in 3 tries is amazing. Your tutorials are excellent and I will be further exploring your channel and learning whatever I can. Thanks from Canada, ... 2114

@amyamie14566 days ago This is by far the only understandable practice and the fact is that you can just see and draw without having to worrying too much about the protion. I am glad with the results i got. 2

@anitadeclerck6000last year I always drew faces and in my final 2 years of school I had art as a subject with art history as well. There I learned of a B6 pencil...we weren't allowed to use an eraser, our fingers for shading and 'wooly lines'. One line only...even when doing hair. We also had to use a live model and was never showed these circles. I got top marks for my sketches and nearly zero for my paintings!😅 Then life started and I stopped drawing, retired at 49 and with the help op Youtube I learned how to crochet, and love it! I am now 61 and my one hand is starting to hurt, so I decided to sketch again. I want to thank you for your teachings! This will make my life so much easier. ... 1

@

@rudyyarbrough51223 years ago I really enjoyed your video. I like the architectural analogy. Most of us have not put your logic to the human form but it is there. I learned to draw with the "Sausageman" and it makes proportion fall into place. Your circle and then its division put the human face into a form that can be recreated over and over with exactness. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent with us. ... 5
@

@kathysmith8692 years ago I'm so glad I found you! I'm learning to draw faces and practicing every day, but I do still struggle with the correct proportions still. This tutorial has been hugely helpful. I'm looking at the face I drew whilst watching you teach and it'as it should be proportionally. I'm so happy and will be using your method moving forward. Thank you. ... 13

@rhb30138 months ago I really enjoyed your video. I have forgotten a lot the information that you have provided and was getting very frustrated with drawing faces.

@janrobnettwordweaver22272 years ago This is an incredible tutorial! You are a fantastic instructor, and it's nice to see in some of the comments that people around my age are just beginning to learn. I'm 59. I learned in another video tutorial that anyone can learn to draw, you just need to know how. I likened it to learning how to do cursive writing in Kindergarten and First Grade, that is like drawing. All it takes is practice. 😀Your way of breaking down the guidelines for the face is wonderful! Thank you! ... 2

@nathanweiner7311last year I watched this video before. It is an extremely helpful reference for drawing the basic structure of a face. i had only been able to draw bizarre/abstract/unrealistic caricatures of people before-- now i can draw more realistic faces and the recipients compliment me on my improvements!!! I tell them about your videos. I am very grateful for your tutorials- i am going to look for the videos dealing with greater detail. Thank you so much for your endeavors-- You certainly are pleasant, patient, and a skilled professional. ...
