Draw the oval lightly with a No.2 or HB pencil. Make sure you draw it as seen in the picture.
2
Now draw in the bisecting red line to balance his facial features.
3
Sketch lightly the crescent red lines for hair line and head mass.
4
You can draw in the lines a. for eyebrows, b. for eyes, c. for nose, and d. for mouth.
5
Now draw in Princeton's eyebrows and eyes. Don't forget the hair wisps of his eyebrows and bottom lashes. Observe where these drawn lines fall near the guidelines.
6
Note where his features appear in relation to the guidelines. Draw in his nose, smile lines, mouth and teeth. Take your time with the teeth.
7
Watch closely how his face outline, jawline, chin, and ear relate to the guidelines. As you draw, you will have more accuracy.

When you sketch his hair, try to imitate the curly and hilly lines...you don't have to draw as many. This will help as you shade it in more.

It is always great to shade in your drawing lightly. You can use a circular or diagonal sketching direction to shade his face, hair, and jacket collar with a 9B pencil very lightly. Use the pencil on it's side as in step 12 for a wider swath (coverag

It's amazing how your picture will look after blending with a tissue. If you blend and erase too much, the light area in the jacket will appear like in the picture. Still, do not randomly rub over his eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth. His hair is easy

Here is the finished product. Shadows on his face and jacket can be darkened with the 9B Graphite Pencil. Also adding depth to his hair with the 9B is a good idea. Then you can highlight with pastel or an opaque watercolor or acrylic titanium white.
