Lesson 3: Features part 1. Drawing eyes

Chuck Close Big Self portrait 67- 68

Eyes by Top left Sara, bottom left Suzie, and me

In tonight's lesson we took inspiration from the artist Chuck Close. He produces large scale photorealistic portraits in pencil and has taken this technique to a whole new level. I decided to do a step by step large scale drawing of an eye using just an HB pencil for the line and a 2B pencil for the shading. The results were incredible!
