I've been doing the timed figure study activities for a while, and I was curious about the face/expression one. However, I have no clue how to actually start on these. I know with gesture drawing there's the line of action, torso and hips, joints, etc. but with the faces I've just been starting with a circle and then realizing I don't have enough time to break it down and rushing to place the features, which usually end up looking wonky and disproportionate and don't come together well. I've tried longer time intervals but have the same issue. My usual method for drawing heads/faces is starting with a Loomis model and then the planes of the face, but I don't have time for this with quick sketches. Is there anything I should be doing or a method like there is for gesture drawing? Do I just wing it?
