Quick Tips on Digital Portraits in Procreate | Drawing Paul Washer

Many artists struggle with getting a correct likeness of a portrait - but one of the main mistakes is thinking in terms of what you're drawing and not in terms of geometric shapes. We end up drawing with our "left brain" instead of our "right brain". It takes practice, but the more you can train yourself to concentrate on drawing what is there rather than what your brain thinks should be there, the better your portraits will become.

In this video, we take a look at one of my quick sketches of the preacher - Paul Washer of @HeartCry Missionary Society. Washer has had a profound impact on my life and faith, and I've benefitted a lot from his ministry and teaching. I hope that through this video, perhaps some others will be blessed by his ministry.
