PROPORTIONS OF THE FACE

Your face is a natural mathematical equation. Many people believe that our interpretation of beauty (although unconscious) is actually related to our appreciation of the symmetry and balance of facial proportions.

PROPORTIONS OF THE HUMAN HEAD

To draw the human head accurately, first become familiar with the basic proportions. Traditional rules of proportion show the face divided into six equal squares, two by three. The upper horizontal division is roughly at the 'third eye' level mid-forehead, the lower at the base of the nose. The eyes sit on the horizontal centre, the mouth on the centre of the lower third.
