How to Sketch a Portrait (real time)

Ойын-сауық

In this video I show you how I sketch portraits.
It's more of a walkthrough and behind-the-scenes look at my drawing process, instead of an in-depth tutorial.
Also, I decided to use Paint Tool Sai because a few of you have requested it.
I hope you'll like it!

    Sorry about the length of this video. I wanted to show my entire sketching workflow, so I couldn't make it any shorter. The drawing starts at about 5:30 . Hope you'll enjoy it anyways!

    NO don't be sorry thanks for this actually. Watching other videos and your instagram page I get an understanding of how you work, but breaking this down more analytically on a literal step to step basis really helps my improve my art a lot as well. So thanks a lot!

    Too pretty and cutesy for me. I prefer more severe and sultry women, along the lines of Lana Del Rey, or even maybe someone like Angelina Jolie. Seems like Dasha Taran is more along the lines of what the author of this video likes. Cute and girly rather than seductive and womanly. (Not a bad thing just a different in aesthetic. Both are beautiful but I prefer the “hot” vs “cute” aesthetic, I guess is one way to word it)

    I’m going to finally try this “piece by piece” style of drawing today... I’ve been drawing all my life and I always listened to the people who said starting with the eye or nose is the “wrong” way and that you have to map it all out. I always start with the head shape and try to get the panes and proportions and then add the features. But I find that if I get any little part wrong it messes everything up. This way seems easier and putting less emphasis on how accurate your first couple marks are... Hope it works out well for me. I’m really scared. Drawing with a layout/large frame is all I know.

    I did the opposite, i used to do things like this, start from the small pieces like eyes then to nose etc. I noticed that making a map for the face is easier to balance things out, where if i were to draw like this video, i often adjusted my pieces because i don't feel like they are in the right position. I guess each person did different method that fits them nicely.

Maybe a stupid question, but can you use any Pinterest photo as reference, when you upload your sketch later to the web or social media? Most of the Pinterest photos are copyrighted (Pinterest members don't care about that and post them there anyway). Can we use them as a reference AND post the sketch online?

    procreate is really an excellent drawing program, let's say it is even more versatile in some sense from Photoshop and so on, so that on the tablet, there is more freedom of action, albeit more limited in the program sense. If it is interesting, go to the channel, see a couple of examples of how I draw, maybe you will find something for yourself)

    The thing I like about the human body of faith in general is that it's very symmetrical everything is lying perfectly like everyone everyone says I can't draw a face to someone so but it's not as hard as you think if you just learn the fundamentals when I mean that I mean like you know if you look at the eyes and eyebrows eyebrows are the same length as your eyes yeah and and also your nose basically in between your eyebrows that's basically the size of your nose right and the end of your lips are straight and straight line going up towards the centre of your eye so like if you actually learn that and learn the fundamentals of that you would be able to do a face yeah obviously you still got the figure out you know the length and were certain things go but if you understand the fundamentals of that you will be able to understand basically the maths behind the face yeah you might not be able to draw a perfect circle and still can't do a perfect circle but since I've learnt the fundamentals of a face I can actually make the eyebrows look good I can make basically face look good £100 ok I'll say 80% of the time because obviously I still need to figure out you know like the size from the bottom of the nose top of the lip and so I'm so but what it is like it's crazy that obviously maths only telling you because you need mate anyway but anyway but it is just amazing how simple the face really is and it was so difficult that then because I never obviously in our you never day teach you not to do the right things or you you obviously we all learnt different you know no so so taking me like a long time to actually correct myself and draw a white face let alone the body but since I've learnt the fundamentals by myself and I realise how by studying my own face I realise well is not housesimple my basically face Anatomy is so as I said obviously everyone looks different but but even they belong to different or different face shapes the same it's always going to be the same year so I might have one eyebrow higher than the other but it's still going to be exactly the same it's still built the same way with the nose is where the mouth is how the corners of the mouth exactly for the centre of your pupils and so on so it's very easy to understand when she when you do understand the way you know the body face whatever is structured

    I noticed that after you finish sketching, you change the color of your lines to a more red color, is there a purpose for this? Is it to make the lines look more natural after you paint? I am also confused on how you do this using an adjustment layer. When I try to change the color balance of the sketch art it doesn't change the color at all. Thanks!
