Drawing hair

As with the mouth and the eyes, you are going to find that shading is everything. the more time you spend shading and the more value, from light to dark that you can get the more your drawing will pop off of the page.

Many times artist will spend a good deal of time on the face and then rush through the hair. Again you will hear the artist talk about value and shading.
    This one does not tell you what you are to do, but it is fun to watch and notice the value shading and very dark to light areas of the hair.

if you have the opportunity to practice drawing hair then certainly do so. I just want to be sure you watch these and see how much time goes into the hair.
