How to Draw Portraits and Caricatures of Babies: Coloring and Tracing Workbook.

This book can be enjoyed as a relaxing pastime and as a

learning tool for people of all ages and skill levels. It

encourages learning through observation, imitation, and

practice while providing opportunities to color, trace, and

draw creatively. A valuable asset and a great resource for any

art class, this book unveils the world of professional

portraiture and caricature art through the eyes of a working

artist. Charming examples of the use of line weight, the

rendering of light and shadow, and the creation of flesh tones

can be found throughout the artist's original artworks. While

using this book, you may develop muscle memory for

coloring, tracing, and drawing, and develop visual memory

for portraiture and caricature art depicting babies. For some

people, creating and observing art that depicts happy babies

can generate emotional and psychological benefits, and I

hope this book leads you to them.

Develop muscle memory. Practice coloring,

tracing, and drawing in a full-page format directly in

this book. Creating artworks of similar subjects, such as

children, may facilitate muscles to consolidate this task

into motor memory. In time, your muscles might take

over and free up your concentration so that you can

genuinely enjoy the artistic process. Muscle memory for

coloring and drawing may make your art more

enjoyable as you complete it faster and with less

conscious effort.

Develop visual memory. Many people are visual

learners, for this reason, this book contains original

portrait and caricature drawings in addition to the coloring

and tracing pages. By studying and creating artwork, you

may begin to develop visual memory-an intuitive sense

of baby portraiture. Familiarize yourself with a wealth of

different baby facial features, structures, and expressions.

Learning from observation, over time, may help you draw

babies from memory and in real-life settings as well as

expand your skill to other fields, such as cartoon and

illustration.

Experience psychological and emotional

benefits. Coloring and looking at art of happy babies,

such as the ones in this book, may facilitate emotional

and psychological benefits. Enjoy the coloring and tracing

process. Coloring and viewing art may help you fall into a

contemplative state of flow, releasing endorphins and

providing you with positive, purposeful engagement and a

sense of accomplishment. There is also spiritual and

educational value that may be gained from engaging in

this book. Children-with their innocence, trust, and

love-lead us closer to God. It is easy to feel happy doing

something as precious as coloring, tracing, drawing, and

enjoying this book. I truly hope you enjoy How to Draw

About the Artist: Marta Sytniewski is a professional artist. She has been trained in art: * academically at Northeastern Illinois University, * independently through literature and practice, which is how she came to study Classical European Portraiture and Figure Painting, and * privately through an apprenticeship with her mother, Anna Jelen, MFA, since early childhood.In her early career, Marta specialized in traditional oil painting, with elaborate, large-scale narrative compositions; sacred art, and murals. She frequently donated her work to charity and drew live event caricatures to encourage community engagement and fundraise for charity organizations.Marta established her company, Funny And Cute Caricatures, in 2019 and has been drawing portraits and caricatures professionally in her fine art gallery at the Gurnee Mills Mall near Chicago, IL. Marta's traditional, handmade artwork is accomplished in fine art pastels, charcoal, graphite, acrylic, and oil paint.When drawing portraits and caricatures, Marta looks for the best in the people that she is drawing, just like a mother sees her children-and in fact, she is a mother of three.To order additional copies of this book, please contact: Artist Marta SytniewskiFunnyAndCuteCaricatures.com
