Cheeks and Noses

This sketchbook project has made me realize that I need practice drawing people in general, but cheeks and noses specifically.

The tip of the nose is a personal feature. If it’s just a bit off, the sketch is all wrong.

I struggled with cheeks, that expanse of space between the profile and the ear. Get the cheeks wrong and the proportions for the whole face are off.

Must go practice…
