Discovering Growth Through Repetition in Portrait Drawing
I’ve been enjoying procreate and I thought drawing the same face a few times would be a great exercise. Repetition is a great way to learn and strengthen any skill right. It worked with Daniel LaRusso and Mr Miyagi.
For this exercise I thought it would be good to draw a well know person from history. I found a portrait of Albert Einstein on the web that I liked.
It’s really interesting what happen when you draw the same face 4 times. You find this rhythm in the drawings. My first portrait drawing has great energy. Its more loose and gesturally drawn. While the last drawing is a lot tighter and refined.
I did each of these drawing in about 5 minutes. I really got a lot out of this drawing exercise and plan to do more like it. If you think this kind of drawing exercise could work for you I encourage you to try it too.
