Just like we worked on eyes, lets now take a look at the mouth. Here is a great video. You might try this. As you look at the video notice that as soon as he goes real dark say around 10.8 in the video the lips begin to come off the page. Here again we are looking at what shading can do to make something Pop. You will hear me use the word pop quite often. It simply means the work pops off of the page.
EXERCISE
Try this exercise. Then either try different expressions of your own lips or a page of different mouths. A good place to find them is in magazines.
You can also take your mom or dad's cell phone and take close up pictures of each family members mouth. Ask them for a relaxed mouth, closed and then a smile without showing their teeth. See if you can capture that.
