About Learn Advanced Portrait & Figurative Art

Making a portrait on skin is different from drawing on paper. I teach you how to map the face so the features remain proportionate even after the henna darkens. We focus on the fine-tip cone work needed for eyes, smiles, and ornaments, ensuring the shading provides depth rather than just flat, muddy lines.
