Guided by an experienced teacher and following a step-by-step approach, this course explores the amazing potential of the ballpoint pen. Similar to traditional ink drawings, the ballpoint pen is surprisingly fun, flexible and accessible to all.

You will learn basic facial anatomy while practising value studies, exploring texture, and much more. Discover a new skill set and a fresh approach to portrait drawing.
