Pencil Portrait Drawing

Pencil Portrait Drawing

This Home Mastery Study Course of Pencil Portrait Drawing by Christopher Sia

Hundreds of Christopher Sia’s students have learned to draw pencil portraits from beginner to advanced. His students have realized their dream of becoming masters in pencil portrait drawing.

Pencil Portrait Drawing – What the Course About?

Christopher Sia has certainly put in tons of effort in putting together what I call the “Complete Pencil Portrait Drawing Package“. It consists of 5 drawing lessons in PDF format with a total of 208 pages, 605 of illustrations and images – to guide you step-by-step with detailed descriptions through the entire home-study course.

I think that the step-by-step guide in the home-study course is really useful because it isn’t just another pencil portrait drawing guide that you normally see online.

Most of the other pencil portrait drawing books and courses that could be found online have beautiful completed illustrations with lots of descriptions with the expectation of you being able to learn from such way. However, my thought is that providing a step-by-step tutorial is the best and most effective way of learning, rather than figuring out how to draw each part based on the reference completed picture.

The big question is, while there are so many drawing books and courses available on the internet today, is Realistic Pencil Portrait Mastery really worth the money?

To answer this question and to find if this course is really for you, let’s talk about some of the pros and cons of this course.

Realistic Pencil Portrait Mastery Review – The Pros and Cons

The Pros:

  • A “truly” step-by-step guide showing you how to achieve a certain outcome with helpful descriptions
  • Easy to create stunning pencil portraits like a master without years of trials and errors
  • A total of 5 drawing lessons, 208 pages, and 605 images to guide you along
  • Useful bonuses to effectively help you to improve your pencil portrait drawing
  • Comes with a 60 day money back guarantee

Realistic Pencil Portrait Mastery Home Study Course is designed for anyone who wants to create realistic pencil portraits on the “real master level” that most artists in the world rarely reach, the quick and easy way.

In my opinion, it doesn’t matter at all if you’re a beginner who has never done any pencil portrait drawing before. This course is definitely the easiest way to start creating stunning pencil portraits.

Unlike any other drawing books and courses that need tons of drawing materials to get started, you only need 2H, 2B, and 5B wood cased pencils which you can get them easily in your local art or stationary stores.

Another thing worthwhile to mention is that they offer a 60 day money back guarantee. This means you get to try the entire home-study course WITHOUT any risk for 60 days. If you don’t like it for any reason, just send an email to them and they will simply give you a full refund.

Other than that, you get free updates as a subscriber to their mailing list which ensures that there is a constant stream of content which compliments the course more.

The Cons:

I feel that the member area have pretty large downloads and certain files may take you longer time to complete the downloads due to their sizes with lots of illustrations. In addition, the home-study course is currently only available via instant download without any shipping of physical products.

However, it is understandable there will be no risk of product damage as these are downloadable digital files

Conclusions:

Overall, there is no doubt that Realistic Pencil Portrait Mastery is regarded as one of the best valued pencil portrait drawing course available on the internet.

You can shop to find other pencil drawing courses, but I haven’t seen any with such learning materials available at such a low price.

Move to the next level of mastering pencil portrait drawings with this course.

DIY Headboard

In your search for DIY Headboards, I probably don’t need to tell you that the internet can easily become a “time-sucking-black-hole” that devours our day while we research a topic ’til the cows come home! Ok, …well you get the point :)

There’s no doubt it, your personal research for DIY Headboards will bring you results. However, I speak from experience when I speak about time lost online. I’m now keen on writing about quality shortcuts to finding results via the internet.

As an example, in your search for DIY Headboards, TedsWoodworkingPlans is a concise place to gain full access to over 16,000 Woodworking Plans. He’s created a product that is extremely well organized; 16,000 plans, schematics, blueprints and material lists are filed according to type. What this means for you, is anytime you want to take on a DIY product, just login to your members area and access all the plans.

If you’re just looking for  some free original ideas on what type of DIY Headboards you can design and don’t want or need any Woodworking Plans, well, perhaps I can give you a few of my own creative ideas:

  • Try using an old door as a headboard. Remove the handle, (or course!), and paint it the color you want, then secure it to the wall.
  • How about a piece of rug or carpet as a headboard. You can cut it to the size you want, then build a wood frame around the headboard so that it “pops”. Or just forget about the frame, and use the rug.
  • You can stencil, draw, or paint your own photo headboard. Frame it if you want.
  • Use wallpaper as a headboard. Be creative by framing it any way you want. Or just skip the frame.
  • If you have old wood windows that you’re not using, remove the glass from the windows and just use the window frame as your headboard. Depending upon the size of your bed, you may need more than one window to fit. Don’t forget to paint it the color you want. Also, if there are criss-crosses in the window, you can paint, or insert unique designs into each frame box that match the theme of your room.

These are just a few of my own free ideas, I’m sure if you keep searching online, you’ll find even more. However, remember to respect your time by looking at TedsWoodworking DIY Plans if you are planning a more sophisticated build.

DIY Headboards and Samples of Bed Plans

Here’s another tip from something I learned …the hard way… online: If you download any information onto your computer from Teds Membership area, or have any other critical files or photos stored on your computer, you should take a minute to learn how to safely, quickly, easily..and for free…backup everything in “the clouds”. (I use this one too, and wrote a blog post on it:  Here’s the Info).

Happy Building,
Barb

Songwriting Lessons – How Can They Help You



Tags: , , ,
Posted in Artsy Stuff, Creating Stuff | Comments Off

Learn to Sing

Learn Singing

Although songwriting is creative there still needs to be structure or discipline to it. Songwriting lessons focus in on the fact that songwriting is a process involving preparation, knowledge, skill and orderliness.

Many people who decide they want to put a a song together do it without Songwriting Lessons, however 95% of the time the end product is not a professionally assembled musical message.

When you take songwriting lessons you learn about creative writing, how melodies are put together, how to avoid writers block and how to tap into your artist within. One of the other useful aspects to Songwriting is learning about the music business itself. If you’re serious about songwriting, putting together a commercially created song is the first step and knowing how to market your work is the second. As a personal example, here you’ll find a song I personally wrote called, “I Am My Mother’s Daughter“. I’ve marketed the song so that when you type the search term “mother daughter lyrics” into Google, you’ll find the link to my webpage for this song near the top.

Don’t feel you actually have to enroll in a school program to take songwriting or singing lessons. You can do it directly from your own home. As long as you have access to a computer and the Internet you can head online and get signed up for classes in no time at all. This allows you the convenience of completing your classes from home rather than having to travel for them.

Even after a few lessons you will see a remarkable difference in how much more into the music you are and how more freely it comes to you. They help in more ways than one and if having a professional singing career is something you dream of, it should be worth it to you. It is well worth the time and effort to get signed up for songwriting lessons. There should never be any excuses for why you are letting something hold you back.

Sincerely, Barb
