These drawing assignments for high school students are perfect for helping your students learn how to draw at a higher level.

Drawing Assignments to Help Your Students Draw People Better

So your students want to draw people that look “real”, but they never come out quite right.

Most often this is because students focus on drawing details like eyelashes or strands of hair.

For successful figure drawings, however, students need to draw the most important concepts first: proportion and gesture.

Teaching your students how to draw people with correct proportions is a game-changer for getting their figures to look “real”.

Gesture is equally important, because without it drawings of people look like wooden statues.

This free drawing assignment lesson plan shows your students how to get consistently good proportions and figure gestures in their drawings.

Drawing Assignments that Teach Your Students About Edges

Edges are the often-neglected but oh-so-important workhorse of drawing. Understanding and applying good edgework in drawings takes students to the next level.

Often, we art teachers spend a lot of time teaching drawing assignments about values – how light and dark to shade things in a drawing.

But JUST AS IMPORTANT is what happens when one value meets another value.

Does the light value meet the dark value abruptly? Or is it a soft transition?

Edgework is actually quite a simple drawing skill to teach, and this free edges drawing assignment will help your students learn how to master the concept.

Drawing Assignments that Teach Texture

Texture is a skill that is always impressive when seen, but often a confusing concept for students.

“Shiny” is perhaps the most impressive texture of all to see in a drawing, and is actually one of the easiest textures to achieve in a short drawing assignment.

In this free drawing lesson, students will discover how to manipulate values to create a drawing of a shiny object.

Are your students’ portraits just so-so? Here are 5 common mistakes to avoid when teaching portraiture to help you get wow-worthy work from your students.

Mistake #1 Bad Student Model Setup

Nothing will kill a student drawing session faster than a bad model setup. If your model is moving and swaying, students become very discouraged very easily. Luckily, there are some easy tips and tricks for helping your model hold a pose well, even if it is their first time ever modeling.

Manageable Pose

First-time models will swear up and down they can hold a pose with arms over their heads, or weight all on one leg, or any number of other poses that are bad ideas. It is your job to dissuade them.

For holdable poses, put your student models in a chair. With arms. With pillows or folded cloth on the arms, and a pillow behind the back. Tape these cushions in place so they don’t move. Have your model keep both feet on the floor (no crossed legs or ankles!), or even place feet slightly elevated on a stool for comfort.

Point of Focus

To keep the head from looking around the room, you need to provide your student model with a single point of focus. Ask them to pick out a small object in the room to look at, or place a piece of tape on the wall for them to focus on. Make sure that the point of focus does not require them to turn their head more than 15-20 degrees from center in either direction. Exaggerated head turns may feel easy to begin with, but will strain the neck of inexperienced models.

Mark the Pose

Once your model is positioned in a comfortable chair that is well-padded, mark the pose. You can do this by placing electrical tape where the arm meets the chair, the feet meet the floor, etc. These tape marks should be easy for the model to see so they can place their limbs correctly after breaks. Marking the pose allows the model to sit as close as possible in the original position when there are breaks between poses.

*Note* Often poses settle during the first 20 minutes of their duration. It’s best to mark the pose at the END of this first 20 minutes, once it has settled. Which brings us to our final important tip about posing student models…

Time the Pose

Inexperienced models should not pose for more than 20 minutes. This is both for safety (new models often do not have the experience to know whether or not one of their extremities is falling asleep) and for the most movement-free modeling for your drawing students.

Of course there is always movement when drawing a living, breathing creature. However regular breaks are ideal for helping your models sit still.

A good rule of thumb is to have a model take a 5 minute break for every 20 minutes of posing. If you have block scheduling with 90-minute periods or longer, allow for at least one longer break half way through the sitting.

By following these suggestions, you will be setting your model (and your drawing students) up for a successful portrait drawing session, and avoid one of the biggest mistakes art teachers make when they start their portraiture unit.

Mistake #2 Dependent on Photographs

Another common mistake I see art teachers make is depending on photographs for their students to copy. Even if the photographs are originals, using photography prevents students from developing the basic portraiture skills they need to build their drawing confidence.

Cameras do a lot of the work for students, without them even realizing it. A photograph has already translated massive amounts of visual information from the three-dimensional world into two dimensions. This makes working from photos extra digestible for students, but simultaneously deprives them of the opportunity to choose which information to include in their portraits for themselves.

There is a huge difference between drawing from life and drawing from photographs. This is such an important (and controversial!) topic that I’ve devoted an entire post to the question, “Why not just use a camera?”.

If you have never had your students work from a live model before, I encourage you to give it a try. It has different challenges and different learning outcomes. When students are able to achieve solid results without a camera, it bolsters their belief in their abilities.

If you are concerned about teaching how to draw portraits from life because you personally prefer photographs, fear not. We have lots of great lesson plans available to help you teach portrait drawing from a living model to your students.

Mistake #3 Too Many Light Sources

This is a big one. It’s so satisfying to see beautiful, shaded and modeled portrait heads done by students. But if you are going to have students shade their portraits, it is important for ease of student learning that only one light source is hitting the model.

When there is only one light source on the model, shadow shapes are the most obvious, and the ability to identify values becomes easier. It helps students rack up easy wins by correctly identifying and drawing accurate shadow shapes.

Contrarily, many light sources often create the illusion of flattened forms and makes it much more difficult for students to identify shadows. Confusion for students nearly always leads to greyed-out portraits and frustration for all.

How to Control the Light in an Art Classroom

Lighting is a constant source of struggle for single artists, let alone a group of 30 novice artists. Art teachers have to be able to manage light for an entire classroom of students, which is no easy feat.

Additionally, classrooms are often designed with multiple, competing and unwieldy light sources that can be challenging for art teachers to control. This often means coming up with creative ways to control the lighting.

Some art teachers manage multiple light sources in their classrooms by blocking out all of their windows except for one. Others set up a spotlight in their room to focus on the model, and turn off most of the other lights, leaving one far-away light on to act as ambient light to help students see their papers.

Every classroom is unique with its own lighting challenges, and it will likely take a few different attempts at controlling light before you narrow in on the strategy that works best for you. But it is absolutely worth applying a few light-controlling strategies to help make sure only one light source hits your model, as lighting makes a huge difference in the quality of work you can get from students.

Mistake #4 No Drawing Boards

Drawing boards are so important. In fact, they are so important I wrote this entire article on why drawing boards are essential art classroom materials.

When students have their drawing flat on a table, it creates distortion. The bottom part of their drawing is closer to them and therefore appears larger, and the top is farther away and therefore appears smaller. Visually, this tricks students into making the top part of their drawing much too big and the bottom part of their drawing much too small.

Drawing boards reduce the distortion be allowing the drawing to be worked on more upright. Even if you do not have easels in your classroom, drawing boards are easy to implement. Simply have students rest the bottom of the boards on their laps and lean again a table.

Drawing boards do not have to be heavy and expensive either. You can learn more about best drawing boards for the art classroom here.

Mistake #5 No Clear Drawing Method

In order to teach portraiture successfully, you need to have an easy-to-understand method that breaks down complex drawing skills for your students.

So often I see art teachers set up a model and tell students “Ok, draw!” This is unlikely to yield the results students want for themselves.

Remember, it is your job as an art educator to teach art. This means providing knowledge and insight to help students achieve their objective. If you are teaching realistic portraiture, you need to have a method that helps students achieve this aim.

There are many, many methods for teaching portraiture. The important thing is to stick to ONE METHOD to teach at a time. You can always teach additional approaches at another time, but avoid confusion in the classroom by focusing on just one series of steps students can take to achieve their portrait goals. You can get a free portrait teaching guide here.

What mistakes do you think art teachers should avoid when teaching portraiture?  Let me know in the comments below.

Capturing a likeness when drawing portraits is one of the most difficult challenges students face in the art classroom. This one secret will make you a hero for teaching students how to make accurate portraits. Every. Single. Time.

Learning from Forensic Illustration

First off, I would like to give credit to the incredible work of the forensic illustrator, Karen T. Taylor, for being the first art instructor to introduce me to the significance of the concept I am about to share with you. Although I had glossed over it in my atelier training, in her book Forensic Art and Illustration she proved beyond a doubt that this one overlooked concept is THE KEY to accurate portraits.

I strongly encourage you to read her fascinating (but somewhat morbid) book on forensic illustration. She is a world expert on creating likenesses of people when it matters most for catching heinous criminals, and identifying missing persons.

The Portrait Drawing Secret

So, are you ready for the portrait drawing secret that will change your drawing life forever?

It’s simple, really. The one portrait drawing secret you simply must know is this:

Likenesses come from accurately representing the relationship of the features to each other.

What does this mean, exactly?

The key word here is relationship.

When people draw portraits, they tend to obsess on what color the eyes are or what shape the mouth is. And while these things have some importance, they are insignificant compared to the relationship of the features to each other.

Let’s say you draw a mouth that is EXACTLY the accurate shape of your subject, and eyes that are EXACTLY the right color. Both of these things can be perfect, but the drawing won’t have a likeness unless the distance between your mouth and eyes is accurate. Getting the correct relationship between the mouth and eyes is far more important for capturing a likeness than the shapes or colors of those features.

Consider this simple illustration that uses the exact same shapes for eyes, nose, and mouth but changes the relationship of these features to each other. Notice how the likeness completely changes?

How does this help me teach portrait drawing?

Have you ever spotted a friend really, really far away, and immediately knew it was them? You couldn’t possibly see the color of their eyes, so how did you know it was them?

The answer might surprise you.

It turns out that humans rely heavily on contrast for intaking visual information. When your very-far-away friend is first spotted, what you are seeing is a light and shadow pattern on their face created by their facial features.

When the sun is overhead, the eye sockets cast a shadow on the face. The nose casts a shadow on the face. The upper and lower lips cast a shadow on the face. It is the relationship of these dark shadows to each other that create a pattern. This pattern in turn tells your human brain “That’s my friend!”

The reason the relationship of features to each other matters so much is because humans simplify visual intake and rely heavily on patterns. It is simply too much information to take in the color of someone’s eyes, when the only information we really need to identify someone is the pattern of lights and darks created by shadows of the features onto the face.

Naming the shapes within your shapes helps you to draw accurately.

Name Those Shapes

“Don’t you see? It looks like Minnesota on crack.”

This is how I once described a shadow shape to one of my students in her drawing. She was struggling to achieve the nuance of the shape because it was complex. Her perception was polluted by her preconceived notion that she was drawing a “face”.

In fact, when drawing shadows, artists have to extract themselves as much as possible from the label of their subject matter. This allows artists to be impartial observers and achieve accuracy.

If you think “eyes” you are bound to draw caricatures of eyes. If you draw all the shadow shapes around the eyes, the forms emerge that look like real eyes. This is because the drawing is not polluted by preconceptions. Instead, the eyes emerge due to the accurate observations of shapes.

Once my student conceived of the shape as something else – no longer a feature of the face but simply a shape that happened to look like Minnesota on crack – she had a visual idea she could use for comparison between what was the same and different between her observations and her drawing. 

Want to take your drawing game to the next level? These drawing worksheets can help.

Name Them All

One of the quickest ways to improve accuracy when drawing shadows is to give everything a name. Big shapes. Little shapes. Shapes within shapes. Give them all names.

Naming shapes abstracts them from the thing it really is (like a face) into something more accessible, like the flat outline of Minnesota on crack.

Like finding shapes in the clouds, identify shapes in your lights and shadows that look like other things. Find shapes in your negative spaces.

For those of you who are masters of the Cloud Game and can find the most specific and funny shapes floating in the sky, greatness awaits you.

Once you get used to abstracting the essence of something from its shape, you might find that the rest of the visual world can be analyzed similarly.

Shadow Shapes

Naming your shapes will help you immensely when drawing shadows. If you take the time to practice and apply this concept when drawing shadows, you will impress yourself with increased skill.

An Extra Note on Abstraction: Bell Centennial

I was very amused to read in a book about fonts, Just My Type, an overall visual impression of the font Bell Centennial as perceived by the calligrapher Gunnlauugur SE Briem:

“Bell Centennial [looks like] a bulletproof rhinoceros that could dance Swan Lake.”

And indeed, when you look at the font, it appears to gracefully gallumph.

This quote is a perfect example of abstracting the feel or look of something in terms that helps us to understand its innate visual nature. Briem’s description helps us as the viewer to forget that there are letters that make words that make sentences that make meaning. They become simply visual objects to behold, and indeed the font does look like a bulletproof rhinoceros that could dance Swan Lake.

Portrait Drawing Secrets

Deftness of Touch when Drawing

What’s the funniest shape you’ve ever found in the clouds? Let me know in the comments below.

“What should I draw?” is a common refrain from students in my art classroom. After years of answering this question, I have found that the answer is different for each student.

What calls to your art heart?

As artists develop their skills, certain drawing subjects are more attractive to them than others. For some students, painting people is their JAM. There is gesture, and movement, and anatomy!

To others, the same subject tortures them because people as subjects are constantly moving. I have had students ask the model not to breathe before! These students want to be able to capture the figure perfectly in exactly one position. This is not really possible when drawing from life because, as it turns out, people need to breath.

Draw & Paint What You Love

My advice to all atelier students: do not torture yourself with drawing subjects you detest. Find the subjects that are the best match for your artistic personality and gifts.

That is not to say that you shouldn’t learn how to draw a wide variety of subjects, especially as you are developing your skillset. It is extremely important to seriously attempt drawing a broad variety of subjects before making any binding decisions about what your artistic calling is.

Bargue plates, for example, may not always be the most interesting to new atelier students, but they are extremely efficient at helping students develop a strong drawing base.

Once techniques are mastered, however, there comes a time to decide on what exactly it is that you want to draw and paint.

Learn from Chardin

The well-known French artist, Chardin, was frequently admonished by his peers to paint more serious subjects than his beloved still lifes of humble dinnerware and fruits. It was believed by the ruling art elite that truly great artists must be history painters who create multi-figure grand canvasses.

But Chardin always painted what he found most admirable, and what suited the techniques that he loved most. And if that subject was a handful of pears, so be it.

Chardin’s clear affinity for chromatic color notes, scumbled layering, and dissolved edges creates a charm that delights viewers to this day and has secured his place in the art history canon. Those “grand” and “serious” and “real artist” history painters? Do you know many of them on a last-name-only basis?

I believe much can be learned from Chardin’s persistence of still life painting at the height of its unfashionableness. Most importantly, how to be true to your individual artistic spirit.

HOW I CHOOSE What to Draw & PAINT

I know a wonderfully talented contemporary painter that makes the most delightful still life paintings. They are imbued with all kinds of nuanced story-telling, and no detail is ever overlooked. This type of painting requires a thorough and patient mindset. The technique requires many passes with a tiny brush. What might appear to be a tedious way of working to me, brings delight to my friend.

I, on the other hand, am a very impatient and brash artist. In fact, I prefer to capture the gesture of something in an exact moment, and there is no time to spare before the magic of the gesture might fade away. I like to paint flowers as they are constantly moving and following the light. I want to paint the whole bouquet at once, as the bouquet as a whole encompasses its own unique gesture.

Painting of daisies in progress by author Mandy Theis

If I want to paint at the level of meticulousness of my friend, I would either have to paint one flower at a time, replacing the flowers in the bouquet as they fade, or replace the bouquet all together with silk flowers.

I can’t stand the thought of painting from fake flowers, whose gestures are never genuine, but whose presence would be required for careful, detailed painting. I adore the gesture of a bouquet as a whole too much to isolate all the parts by painting flowers one by one. Therefore, my technique has evolved in a way that allows me to paint an entire bouquet at a non-meticulous level over the course of the life of that bouquet.

It should be noted, however, that I had to learn how to draw and paint meticulously in order to acquire the skillset I needed to draw and paint more freely. It is very important to me to have the “meticulous painting” tool in my tool box for the times that I do need it, like putting a fine finish on the vase of the flowers.

Master Skills and Your Style Becomes a Choice

When studying atelier skills, learn everything you can at a meaningful level. Try drawing everything you can in order to discover what you, as the unique individual you are, actually like.

Be true to yourself. If you find you are drawing something because it is what you are supposed to draw to be a “serious artist” (multi-figure work come to mind), channel your inner Chardin and pursue drawing what resonates with your artistic soul. Maybe you are a master of creatures. Or waves. Or hands.

As long as you draw what calls to you, your audience will always sense it. They will appreciate your chosen subject more deeply by seeing it through your eyes. After all, sharing your inspiration with others is the true gift of great artists.
