The following couple of screen shots are taken from “Figure drawing for all its worth” by Andrew Loomis.
Now a common challenge many artist face is that they draw or paint a very accurate likeness, but for some reason add or subtract five, ten years from the subject. This can be very frustrating.
It’s a great thing when you start to internalize basic proportions of the head, but when drawing children we need to remember to adjust those instincts. For example, I often draw the nose of children too long and they look 14 years old instead of 4.
The following images are a helpful study aid in identifying the differences that age represents in typical drawing proportions.
Happy Sketching!
