Faber-Castell - World Colors How to Draw Faces

World Colors How to Draw Faces

Young artists master realistic portraits with skin-tone pencils

Learning to draw faces requires more than generic "flesh tone" pencils. This kit provides twelve skin tone variations plus three double-ended blending pencils, fifteen distinct options for matching actual human diversity. The color wheel guides young artists through mixing and selecting shades that reflect real people, while the included mirror encourages self-portraiture and observation of actual facial structure rather than cartoon conventions.

Faber-Castell builds these EcoPencils from reforested wood with water-based, non-toxic pigments that sharpen cleanly and layer smoothly. The make-up artist who designed this curriculum understands how light affects skin tones and how hair color relates to complexion, practical knowledge translated into accessible exercises. Structured lessons progress from basic proportions through shading techniques, supported by tracing pages that build confidence before freehand attempts.

The easel-back mirror transforms any table into a portrait studio. Young artists can study their own features while drawing, learning the observation skills that distinguish competent portraiture from guesswork. Everything stores together: pencils, sharpener, eraser, instruction booklet, and practice pages in one comprehensive package.
