Hey guys! In this video, I learn to draw a face with my left hand in the classical realist style I was trained in at the Florence Academy of Art. I explain the process of classical drawing and I do commentary on my own work.

Great for lighter areas B Pencil --Softer led than the HB pencil. Great for darker shadows Kneaded eraser --Very malleable eraser which increases the accuracy of erasing Strathmore Sketchbook How / Why I sharpen my pencil the way I do: I use an Exacto knife to shave it to a point and then use fine sandpaper wrapped around a wood block to further sharpen the point. The pencil will stay sharper for longer and you can get finer detail.
