The Secret to Drawing Emotions
Ron Lemen demonstrates how to draw a convincing angry expression, starting with strong structure and proportions before layering in rhythms across the face. He shows how to use Prismacolor pencils for both sharp and soft edges, explains why the whole head and even the hair must react to the emotion, and warns against focusing on one feature at a time. He also shares tips for studying real-world references, since genuine emotion creates the most believable drawings.
