Overview

Drawing the human head is one of the greatest challenges an artist can face. Without a well-drawn head, even the most dynamic figure drawing will fall short. I know this struggle personally—I avoided confronting this challenge for much longer than I’d like to admit. But over the past few months, I’ve made it my focus to fix that. This course is the direct result of that journey.

In this 10-week course, I’ll guide you step-by-step through the complexities of head drawing, breaking down what I’ve learned into simple, practical lessons. We’ll explore the structure of the skull, the essential surface planes, and study the individual facial features.

By the end of this course, you'll not only have the foundational skills to draw heads with confidence but also the deeper structural understanding needed to invent and design heads from imagination.
