How to Draw George W. Bush Step by Step

Link- http://merrillk.com/?part=fineart&... George W. Bush.........Some people love him............(Applause) And others hate him......Kunst (Hipster Character)- "George Effing Bush I despise you"..." No child left behind took all of the art teaching jobs away and has adversely affected my hipster lifestyle." And the two sides seem to hate each other..........General Character: "Stealth Bomber, Put that hipster out of his misery". (Stealth Bomber flies over Williamsburg, Brooklyn) Kunst (Hipster)- I cant even afford to be a vegan anymore....(Boom)
George W. Bush: Thank you for the introduction-.....You're welcome George! Strong opinions can inspire powerful works of art, so for the remainder of this video, I am going to help you draw a portrait of the most controversial man in the world. I promise to leave my personal politics aside so that I can help you create a great drawing. It doesn't matter if you have ever studied art before. If you to follow the instructions, and take your time, you'll be amazed at the quality of your work.
Before we start, I recommend that you hit the link in the video description to download a step by step cheat sheet with pictures and text that will accompany the narration of this video.

Step 1.) Observe, then draw the shape that you see. This will be President Bush's forehead. Notice that the eyebrow region is similar to how a child draws a bird.
Step 2.) Observe, then put in the two shapes for Dubya's hair. Take your time and compare the size of each shape.
Step 3.) Its time to put in Dubya's peepers. Instead of just focusing on the eye, I put in the entire eye region.
Step 4.) In step four, I added the bottom of the nose. Take your time to notice the spacing between the eye shapes and the line for the nose.
Step 5.) Add the wrinkle lines to the side of the nose and President Bush's mouth. Notice that the region between the top lip and the bottom of the nose is trapezoidal. Also notice that the former President's top lip is extremely thin and that the bottom lip is only slightly thicker than the center part, where his teeth are.
Step 6.) Add the chin to your drawing. Also, notice the extra shadow line that I added.
Step 7.) Add the neck shape and the two ears. Don't stress too much about the shape of the neck, but know that most caricatures of the former President, portray him with big ears. Democrats and Republicans can both agree that Dubya has some prominent cartilage on the side of his head.
Step 8.) Add the teeth. Be sure to notice the strong shadow on the sides of the mouth but resist the urge to go too dark between each tooth.
Step 9.) Spend some extra time on step 9. Add in President Bush's eyes and eyebrows. His eyes seem smaller than the average person and there is slightly less space between them than most people. Also, be sure to notice that there is only a small amount of space between the eyes and eyebrows. Finally, add more detail than usual to the region under each eye.
The shading part covers proper ways to erase with a kneaded eraser and covers strategies for shading President Bush's face. President Bush was in his early sixties when the reference image was shot. Coincidentally, he has more wrinkles and areas of tone and gradation on his face (when compared to a person who is younger.....or injected with plastic LOL). He still has a lot of hair, but it is thinner and greyer than somebody who is younger. The hairline should be shaded as a gradual transition between the forehead and the hair. Darkest areas of his hair are the part, the upper temple region and the area above the ear. The President's Eyes are lighter in color, but still remain one of the darker tones on the face. His eyebrows are low and there is barely any space between the top of the eyes and the eyebrows. To add the actual tones, I use cross hatching and smudging with a tortillion and paintbrush (use a q-tip if you dont have either). To achieve the darker tones, I use a 4B and a 7B pencil. Most of the shading was done with a #2 (HB) Pencil. Use a slip sheet to prevent the oils from your hand from reaching the surface of the paper. how to drawn a man step by step
