About the work of an actor or an actress, the celebrity actress Meryl
Streep said once: Giving voice to characters that have no other voice-that is
the great worth of what we do.
Yes, they do a valuable service to giving voice
to the characters which sometimes remain only on the pages of history.
that is why we love our actors and actresses. The actors and actresses of
Here are some pencil portraits. Actors and
celebrities from all fields. All the portraits are done with the help of a
pencil. An artist who wants to learn to draw portraits would get much scope for
seeing how these successful artists have done their artworks.
How to Draw Pencil Portraits: When we took a pencil in our hand the first thought we get in our mind
is to try a portrait drawing of our know person. The person may be our beloved,
a beautiful partner, a spouse or a little child. Many young artists desire to
draw their parents and teachers they love most. But doing a portrait with a pencil
is not so easy, especially when you are in the budding stage of your artistic
life.
Before going to start a portrait drawing of a
person, an artist would examine how it is done by others. We have vast data
of information regarding how to draw faces and human bodies. We can see such
work in achieves of an old art gallery. If we want to know how the artists of
the whole world are doing this task of portrait making, we should search for it
on the internet. The following passages narrate how certain types of portraits
can be done with pencils.
Portraits of Celebrities: Drawing the faces of Celebrities have always remained a favourite subject
for artists. It is because such portraits attract the immediate attention of
people. We love to draw the faces of our heroes like George Washington and Mahatma Gandhi. We also
love to see the beautiful faces of
No artist would miss drawing a woman or a
young girl if she approaches him or her to be portrayed. Artists drawing
women on their art papers would ensure that the aspects of beauty and
proportion of various parts of the face are important while drawing the face of
a woman. If an artist is making a portrait of a woman, then his or her task
would become more technical.
Portraits of Children
Here the artist would face all types of
challenges. It is because a small child of two or three years old would be very
charming and beautiful, but the baby would not be cooperating with the artist.
But the artist can take the help of photographs.
An artist would make a portrait by using two
types of techniques: line drawing and value drawing. If it is done with the help
of value drawing the artists will have to be much more careful about falling off the
light on the face of the person being portrayed, as under this technique the
shades would decide the different areas and not the lines.
Portraits of the Celebrities of the World: Some people have done much good for
the human race and have sacrificed their lives for us. We call them great men
and women or celebrities. But they are darling of ours. We love them; we
respect them, and we worship many of them. Here are portraits of some of such
dignitaries. these virtuous sons and daughters of the human race have served
their mother earth very well, so we all remember them.
