Go grab a Proko skull or use the attached reference and have some fun trying to abstract your head construction and pick up on the big features of the skull as you draw.

I love the way you analyze something in order to draw it, it gives a Bob Ross vibe and it clicks for me. I hope you release an anatomy course in the future.

"Bob Ross vibes" is maybe the best compliment I've ever received. Thank you!

I did a bunch of skull studies. I'm not very clear on the differences in male and female skulls.

I promise it started with construction! But it's weekend, felt good and it all ended up shaded. :)

Love a morning skull sketch! This breakdown was super helpful for getting a framework down to work with. I got a lot from this lesson!

Drawing skull is interesting! It is really useful for me to understand the big features of the skull. It is also helpful for building facial features more precisely. Thank you very much for this bonus lesson!
