What do you think if I told you that children 9 years of age you can learn how to draw realistic portraits of people? The Impossible? Perhaps because of their age, yet fully graduate animation and character design using color markers and construction paper. Yes, your child can learn to draw portraits of real people using (five tones of shading, black-and-white photos of high quality 8 "x 10" plastic acetate sheet grid, gridded 8″ x 10″ drawing paper and 1/2″ cardboard square viewfinder). Using these basic is based on techniques and materials will be your child will be able to draw a realistic portrait within two hours without any previous draw a lesson from an instructor, or ever picking up a pencil sketches and drawings.
It is still a mystery? I was and still confused today. I've been an independent art teacher to teach the arts and crafts, located in Waldorf, MD., on Saturday, Michael. I noticed in my area the lack of art classes for children (5-12). Most art instructors to teach art to individuals age 13 for an adult. But one wanted to teach younger children, or it has been difficult to find close to the master of art, which would have had the patience to teach younger children of concentration.
I thought to myself. If a child can learn to draw animals, landscapes and animation characters using basic shapes, such as (a circle, a straight line, angle, curve and square). Can use these shapes to draw a realistic portrait of the person. I started reading articles on the Internet and other reference materials on how children learn to read, write and draw. I then my search within six weeks, portrait drawing workshop for children ages (9-12).
I learned that when a child learns to read, write and draw, everything is upside down, or right to left. In other words, they read from right to left instead of from left to right. Rather than develop right as adults. Child by contacting their photo upside down, on the drawing, as if it were, everything is upside down. So I came up with a fun and creative portrait drawing workshop on combination of games for children, 5, 10, 15 minutes, drawing time drills, draw a grid line, light and shadow, or toning, upside down reverse drawing, etc. I had to think like a child and the way they taught me how to draw in the way a child learns to draw.
For example, in the fourth week of classes, students were ready at the time of exercise. Say time drills that sounds, such as the military school. Not enough time to exercise helps the student to focus on the forms, expression and movement of the subject without the use of shading. The basics of this technique is to alert students to the body just the way it sees without stopping. Students get an animated cartoon character in five minutes, as Mickey Mouse or any cartoons. I would tell them to hurry, because five minutes is a long time. Some students had finished, the plot of the character in less than three minutes. When were finished first of five minutes, might go back more than two minutes to correct their mistakes and erase unnecessary lines. Students would do this exercise for rotation between (tutorials, five to fifteen minutes), sketching individual 1 hour, as well as six drawings or even more.
Another great benefit is upside down reverse drawing. Students got an 8 "x 10" black and white photographs, plastic acetate gridded sheet, 8 "x 10" gridded paper and the students were instructed to flip the image, place the plastic acetate gridded sheet on photography. Now what they see is photographs divided into squares (8) (horizontal), squares (10) (vertical). The number of squares on a grid of acetate, should be the same number of squares on gridded paper. Instead of focusing on photography students are now focusing on the shapes and tones the body in each square. For the purposes of this exercise is for students and shadow shapes exactly as you see in each square. In other words, its like playing connect the lines, or together. As soon as the complete performance now have a portrait of the person with the correct positioning of the eyes, ears, nose, mouth without spending time implementing fixes. All the fixes can now appear on the portraits of the right side of the sheet and erase unwanted lines and heavy shading is completed.
