My Favorite HEAD DRAWING METHOD: The Reilly Abstraction! STEP BY STEP Face Proportions & Angles
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I've spent the past week teaching myself the Reilly Head Abstraction! I think it is great for portrait beginners still trying to understand face proportions (like me), and so I wanted to share what I've learned.

Hands down, my favorite Reilly Method video. No long winded explanation . . . short and concise. Appreciate the work.
Thank you ! This is one of the most in depth tutorial on you tube!
After many searches i landed on this video. Clarity without any confusion amaze me. Only drawing circles in the places of eye sacket needed clarification.thanks a lot.
I can tell that your channel will explode and I will be here for all of it

You just made my whole month 😭🥰 thank you so much!
Ahh this is by far the most helpful head tutorial i've ever seen, i really don't to very well with the loomis head and this method is just what i needed, tysm for this video!
This is the greatest video ever created for reilly method drawing!
what a simple way to draw a head!! Now I can draw a very beautiful and accurate head, just give me a whole day😂
Great job delivering the key points Reilly method so concisely!
Thank you for an excellent tutorial. It did go a little fast, but that's what pause and rewind are for. Excellent breakdown of the Reilly Abstraction. I only found out about this method recently and find it far more intuitive for me than the Loomis Method. Thanks for showing the process on 3/4 and profile views too. Super helpful. I'm going to try using this method in my portrait group this afternoon.

Pause, rewind, and .75 speed. : )
Its amazing how many different ways that people use the Riley method. No two artists approach it the same
This tutorial helped me so much, I’ve been struggling with 3/4 and side profile

This is about the clearest explanation of the Reilly method and I've saved it for later reference, only criticism is could you slow your speech down a bit, it all goes a little to fast. Thank you for the time you have put in to this tutorial. 👍
Brilliant tutorial, clearly explained and the last section about 3 ways to use it was really cool, thank you!
Thank you. I've watched several Reilly Method videos, and yours was the best. You have a great teaching style.
Well I took my time before watching this video in full. I hope you take your time making your future videos like this because you clearly took the time to consider how to present this information so that it could be as accessible as possible. I'm gonna be the one to say if you're still getting back on your art stuff, you already got your teaching and video production skills down 🦾 Looking forward to your next one!
Brava! I love this tutorial x

thanks for this tutorial😊it's easy for me to understand😊
Thiss reilly method thing took my head drawing to a different level.. i remember drawing everything with no proportions
Thank you so much. I do like the Loomis but im not getting it as well as I NEED. Your Rielly method video helped me to understand it way better. It seems a bit less confusing.
Finally a reilly method tutorial that doesn't take an hour to explain
I'm not really good at memorizing things. Never have been. I've always preferred understanding the underlying reason behind why something's there instead of just knowing about it. That helps me to commit that thing to memory. Same with the reilly method. Sure, you're pointing out which one goes where, but not why I should put it there. Is it the muscle structure? The bone structure? How does the line behave when things move, like an expression or something. Sure, some are easy enough to guess, but not all. It's not just this video though, I've gone through several videos on reilly method and they're mostly the same. I can only understand some of it. I guess I don't have a sense of rhythm like proper artists, but an explanation does help a long way.
I am unable to make a good potrait and my drawings are not realistic , I can not make eyes noses and lips perfectly even learning from yt and I am doing daily practice .How you do it very easily ?
I love you 😊😅🎉😂 very nice video
wow
damn, so elaborate a tutorial!
براڤوووووووو Good 👍
Вы такая приятная...вот только очень быстрая ..и музыка быстрая ..прямо как в супермаркете в отделе красок..нужно все быстро выбрать и не ошибиться)))).
just a side note and hopefully this isn't disrespectful but my lord you are stunning
Good one. How do we now wrap a shade on the Reilly head, and ensure the shade flows with the Reilly curve.
👏👏👏👏👏
A lot of steps! My question is right at the beginning, as a digital artist, how do I find the correct position to add the two vertical lines on the side of the head?
Can you apply it in a photo reference
I end up with a square face shape even tho the person on a reference i used doesn't have a square face shape, idk what to do i tried drawing it different more slimmer but it doesn't work. Can somebody help?
Nice video albeit a tad rapid. You say you can dissect the circle into eights but no mention as to what the eights refer to? Fifths seem to work nicely though. Thanks.
I would like to know where you learned the Reilly method. Did you go to a website, did you use a book?
Will you use this method everytime you draw a portrait or you refer to it's proportion
@leighanncreates
2 жыл бұрын
Until I’m really familiar with it, I will keep using it as a reference or to fix proportions. Eventually though, I should understand how to draw the head and head anatomy enough to move away from using it
Can the steps be purchased in a drawing book?
Hi. I am just starting. I mean from scratch. My first impression is this looks so complex relative to what i have seen with the Loomis method. Is Riley considered a more advanced version of Loomis? Should i even try this?
@leighanncreates
Жыл бұрын
You could probably say that 😊 Loomis might be an easier starting point if you have absolutely no drawing experience since this one is more complicated. but I still think it’s a great way to learn proportion, even for beginners, so I would still give it a try and then if it’s too much, just come back to it later. Or start by just overlaying it on drawings to see where you can improve proportions?

@@leighanncreates thanks. Btw, i drew allot as a child. I stopped in ‘78 when i was 14 years old. I am nearly 59 now and i want to take it up again. I didn’t study anyone’s method. I just did by copying comic book characters. They were awesome. I hope to get that joy back. Sorry to lay this story on you. Venting I suppose. Big regrets. Huge really.

I’m sure you had other things that you were focused on at the time, so it’s cool that you’ll get to pursue art now that you’re ready 😊 there’s just something about getting to do the things we enjoyed as children that’s so special. Also, there’s so many great resources out there now that make drawing easier and more fun to learn! Best of luck with it! ☺️
The quality and links from this video are fucking awesome thank you. I remember watching your first video and glad it brought me back. Subbed. How long have you been drawing ?

The KZread algorithm is working in both our favors 😁 I started drawing really young and took a class or 2 in middle school, but during high school and college, it was really just doodling on my homework. But now I’m getting back into it!

its almost a simplified version of reilly in terms of head construction. both are good. building on a foundation of loomis construction with reilly rhythms is the best way to go about learning it imo

I think Riley’s head method takes to much time I use the loomis method when drawing the head
@RoxOn413

The loomis method is definitely faster but it kinda leaves you on your own about what to do with the facial features, this one's pretty helpful if you can't instinctively pick up on the shapes of everything :]
