Is it possible to get away with a well-drawn portrait that has a badly drawn ear? Sure—sometimes. But why would you want to?
The ear is one of the most complex and interesting forms in the head. Its shapes are specific, sculptural, and often surprisingly beautiful. Learning a bit about its structure will go a long way toward drawing it more confidently—and making your whole portrait feel more solid.
Materials you will need:
Graphite pencils
Sketchbook or drawing paper
Paper stump
