Vibrant Children’s Portraits || Victoria Lisi
February 2nd, 2010
There’s a slightly saccharine quality to the results produced here, but it’s not something you couldn’t tone down in your own work. Books on portraiture are thin on the ground and on painting children even more so, so this is a particularly welcome gap-filler. There’s a good variety of hair, skin and facial types, as well as sound but simple notes on how to deal with the main facial features and step by step demonstrations that are thorough without being over-worked.
All in all, this is an excellent place to start and would probably also carry some welcome hints for the more practised artist.
