How to Draw and Shade a Girl's Face using Graphite Pencils - My Process Tutorial

Hi Guys!

In this BIG video I will show you how to draw AND shade a girl's face using graphite pencil. I will be using a 2B, B, HB, 2H and a black colour pencil, an eraser, a blending brush and a reference picture. I am also once again introducing you to a shading map, so you can see how the shades fall on the face.

Questions or feedback? Please leave a COMMENT! It makes me happy and supports the channel!

WARNING: This is NOT a full facial feature tutorial. BUT I do have tutorials for all the facial parts on my channel - and much more. I did this video to show you my entire process of drawing a female realistic face. I am drawing and shading the nose, the eyes, the skin, the eyebrows and everything you need to complete a portrait of a realistic female face.

Other than a few materials you need to have knowledge about anatomy and skills to draw realism. If you don't have them, don't give up - go to my channel and start practising. Also you will need patience! Without patience you wont make it far as an artist.

When draw a girl's face it's important that you get the proportions right. In these chapters I have broken down my process, so you can see it from A-Z:
