In this video, I'll explain the top 3 mistakes in portraits that I have made and I see students have made in the past. Fortunately, all of these are easily rectified with a good sequence of exercises.
Note that one of the mistakes is about the use of systems like the Loomis head or Reilly rhythms. This is not because those systems are not good - I think they are great - it's more about jumping to those systems and overrelying on them before making your own observations.

This was a very helpful video, and I’d definitely love a sequel!

I refuse to believe that, I am the KING of making mistakes. Not only that, I claim this title thanks to youtube tutorials. If it weren’t for so many misguided attempts at teaching. I wouldn’t have claimed to be the GOAT of mistakes. I deserve the jumping the gun award, the anti observation award, the circle in square peg award, the idiot who paid 600 for a course award, all these I deserve.
Anyway great video as always Kenzo.

Oof, I feel you brother.

[@lovelifedrawing]

This is why I'm the king: I actually make the tutorials for a living and then make the mistakes
