Reference Photos and Drawings. Ron will supply a reference photo and a line drawing for tracing. You can use your own reference photo, pre-drawn, on the WC paper, but please follow his photo then transfer guidelines (below)

Your Reference Photos: When shooting your reference photos, lighting is very important. Position the subject so the light is coming from one side of the face and casting shadows to the other side of the face.  Catch some light on the cheek of the shadowed side. This is called “Rembrandt Lighting”.  See example above.

Important: Provide your digital reference photos to Ron by March 18, 2022 at wcartist@RonaldMalone.com.
