Self portrait-nose structure
The document provides tips for drawing the nose, including measuring the nose length using the eye length as a guide. It emphasizes observing the shapes and angles of the nose using measurements from the eyes to the nose. The most important part of drawing the nose is capturing the shadow underneath, as this shows the form, and building up the values of the shadow until the 3D form of the nose is created. Highlights should also be added with white chalk to help define the shape further.
