The Truth about the "Loomis Method" for Drawing Heads -- What Most People Get Wrong...

How to fix the top 5 head construction drawing mistakes: https://www.thedrawingcodex.com/fixyourheads

Let me know in the comments if you have had success applying the Loomis Method or other Head/Figure Construction techniques in your drawing!

In this video I discuss head construction methods such as the one Andrew Loomis showed us in his 1943 book: Drawing the Head and Hands.

When I talk to aspiring artists who are out there learning to draw - these head and figure construction methods often come up. I also teach these methods to hundreds of students every year. But I still find that people are often practicing the wrong thing or and not properly understanding how these books can help them out. I give a few quick pointers in this video so hopefully you can better understand how these systems can help you.

To find the book I show in the video search for "Drawing the Head and Hands by Andrew Loomis'
(I don't do affiliate nonsense, but the book is great and I recommend it to everyone learning to draw)


Happy Drawing!
