Ear Placement In class, when we get to this point in the drawing lesson, I ask people to use their own heads as a tool to measure where ears fall in relation to the facial features. I'd like you to do the same. Take your hand to your ear and make a C-shape with your fingers, so your thumb is just touching the bottom of the earlobe and the fingers are gently touching at the top of the ear. Now, holding this width, imagine you could draw a line with the thumb and fingers and slowly 'draw' it horizontally toward your face until you meet your eyes. You have probably found that the fingers come to roughly the center of the eye and the thumb is around the center of the lips. If you cant remember some of the proportions, you always have your own head to use as reference!

They are generally subtle and have low contrast. These and small-scale prints with low contrast are ideal for facial features because they lend texture and variation in color. If you squint your eyes, these prints almost read as a solid and add variation without being overwhelming. Gather a variety of these to use with your solids and youll have all the fabric you need to make some awesome faces.

For all these tips, use a fabric that is slightly darker than the base fabric. Indicate the 'ball' of the chinthat semicircle shaped crease a little below the mouthby adding a crescent moon shape. Create a dimple with a small snip of fabric placed near the bottom of the chin. Avoid making dimples too dark or you risk them looking like moles rather than shadows. Add a shadow under the chin line with another crescent shape. Read more
