  • I've spent the past week teaching myself the Reilly Head Abstraction! I think it is great for portrait beginners still trying to understand face proportions (like me), and so I wanted to share what I've learned.

    Thank you for an excellent tutorial. It did go a little fast, but that's what pause and rewind are for. Excellent breakdown of the Reilly Abstraction. I only found out about this method recently and find it far more intuitive for me than the Loomis Method. Thanks for showing the process on 3/4 and profile views too. Super helpful. I'm going to try using this method in my portrait group this afternoon.

    I'm not really good at memorizing things. Never have been. I've always preferred understanding the underlying reason behind why something's there instead of just knowing about it. That helps me to commit that thing to memory. Same with the reilly method. Sure, you're pointing out which one goes where, but not why I should put it there. Is it the muscle structure? The bone structure? How does the line behave when things move, like an expression or something. Sure, some are easy enough to guess, but not all. It's not just this video though, I've gone through several videos on reilly method and they're mostly the same. I can only understand some of it. I guess I don't have a sense of rhythm like proper artists, but an explanation does help a long way.

    Hi. I am just starting. I mean from scratch. My first impression is this looks so complex relative to what i have seen with the Loomis method. Is Riley considered a more advanced version of Loomis? Should i even try this?

    • @leighanncreates
      @leighanncreates  11 місяців тому +1

      You could probably say that 😊 Loomis might be an easier starting point if you have absolutely no drawing experience since this one is more complicated. but I still think it’s a great way to learn proportion, even for beginners, so I would still give it a try and then if it’s too much, just come back to it later. Or start by just overlaying it on drawings to see where you can improve proportions?
