Portrait Pro Drawing Guide- guiding you to professional portraits

Portrait Pro Drawing Guide

What

I was inspired to pursue the PortraitPro as a result of teaching others to draw portraits over many years. I had been trying to develop a guide to simplify the process for people and overcome their initial resistance to drawing and believing they can’t draw.

Why

  • This is a hard plastic device that aids people in creating the correct proportions for their portraits and helps the create neat circles for the eyes.
  • This is important in supporting novice artists in creating a successful portrait that is pleasing to their eye. Once this has been achieved they will gain confidence and the ability to apply their newfound knowledge and skills into freehand portraits. 
  • I will create a prototype based on a 12cm circumference portrait that fits an A4 sheet of paper out of thin plastic 
  • I will source the correct transparent plastic material
  • I will create the design on the computer to be laser cut
  • I will make my first prototype and try it out
  • Then make any adjustments necessary
  • I will then make 10 to begin with, conduct my first portraiture workshop to test its effectiveness
  • I then need to solve the problems of posting it to those doing the online course, work out logistics, postage, charges etc. 
  • Consider creating a printable template for people to cut their own circles out of as a ‘make your own portrait pro drawing guide’.
  • I will be guided by Michael Bromage and create it at Daktech
  • I would like to complete the prototype by the 29th of February
  • I would like to have produced the first 10 the 3rd of February
  • I would like to advertise and deliver the first portraiture workshop for the 10th of March. I would need to start advertising by the 29th of February
