- 4. Leonardo da Vinci and other artists were part of the Italian Renaissance. The Renaissance was a cultural movement that sparked realism and human emotions in art. It profoundly affected European intellectual life from 1400-1500’s. Beginning in Italy, its influence was felt in literature, philosophy, art, music, politics, science, religion.

- 7. Renaissance artists used techniques that launched a 3-dimensional & realistic look to the face.
- 8. Look closely in these BW versions… Write down 2 artistic techniques that Leonardo da Vinci uses in Mona, but Botticelli falls short of in this portrait of Venus.
- 9. Leonardo da Vinci also used a technique called Chiaroscuro, which means creating a skillful balance of light and dark in a painting, with strong contrasts to create dramatic effect. Leonardo da Vinci broke through the flat-like portraiture by creating subtle gradations of tone which were used to subdue sharp edges and create 3-D form called Sfumato.
- 10. You have been learning to draw the Chiaroscuro, dramatic effects of light and dark by pushing the gradient values on a 10 point scale; with the Goddess, marshmallow study, animal and soon in your portrait assignment. You have been learning to draw using the Sfumato technique in your Goddess folds study, your landscape study, your animal. You will apply this technique to your portrait.

- 52. Getting Started… Portrait Layout Learning Guidelines to Position & Measure Face Features
- 53. You will complete a portrait guideline that you can use as a future resource; another option to GRIDDING Let’s Begin with an oval, egg shaped head…
- 54. Look at your subject. Is their head long, short or regular? Can you see the difference in these oval shapes?
- 55. Long oval shape Draw your oval shape first! Regular oval shape Short oval shape Here’s a little guide: The head is basically 4 eyes wide. Can you figure how the 4th eye fits in the width?
- 56. Draw a lightly sketched layout of the ears!
- 57. DRAW ALL THE GUIDELINES BEFORE RENDERING! Eye line Nose mid-line Start by drawing a line to divide the oval 1/2 vertically and 1/2 horizontally.
- 58. Lowest nose point line Add horizontal line 1/2 way between middle & chin.
- 59. Lower lip line Add another horizontal line little less than 1/2 way between the nose line & chin.
- 60. Brow line Add another horizontal line ABOVE the middle line, along the inner top fold of the ear.
- 61. Nose Wing width Add a rectangle box from the brow line, down to just above the bottom nose line…. This is a guideline for the width of the nose wings. Hint: It is ¼ of the oval width.
- 62. The red lines are drawn later. Start from the inner white of the eyes and down to the lip line. Mouth Width Try to draw the mouth (lips) after the eyes and nose are drawn.
- 65. Start by drawing rectangular box around the oval face….
- 66. Visualize an oval touching the top and bottom of the box.
- 68. Eye line: Draw a line to divide the oval 1/2 vertically and 1/2 horizontally; should intersect the center of each pupil.
- 69. Nose length: Horizontal line 1/2 way between middle & chin.
- 70. Brow Line: Add another horizontal line ABOVE the middle line, along the inner top fold of the ear. Lower lip line: Add another horizontal line 1/2 way between the nose line & chin.
- 71. Nose Wing Width: Add a rectangle box from the brow line, down to just above the bottom nose line…. Hint: It is ¼ of the oval width.
- 72. Nose width & eye width: The nostrils will usually be a little wider than the width of one eye!
- 73. The red lines are drawn later. Start from the inner white of the eyes and down to the lip line. The mouth (lips) should not be drawn in until the eyes and nose are drawn.
- 74. The red and orange lines show the width of eyes and in between. Are they the same? Now, it is your turn to draw your own portrait guideline resource!
