This is a transcription of one of Chuck Close's self-portraits that I drew for a homework for my AS art. I decided to use the grid technique that Chuck Close often uses.
Materials used:
-HB pencil
-3B pencil
-Rubber/eraser
Took me approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes to complete :)

  • You are very talented, just as much as Chuck Close, would rather see you do you own stuff.

  • @paintedglyphs333 Thanks :) If you visit my art blog (in the description box), I have some of my own work you can look at :)

  • absolutely brilliant! Do you use the grid method for most of your work now?

  • @ABANAN96 Thank you very much :). No, this was the only time I used the grid method. I prefer free-hand drawing as I don't like the lines of the grid showing.

  • hey you're awesome!

  • @GuruEdward Thanks! :)

see all

  • @kittykaoticx Yeah the grid is nice but i don't like how my drawings look a bit blocky afterwards as if it was a patchwork quilt made by several artists pieced together. If you can create astonishing work while keeping perspectives in check then freehand is the way to go in my opinion. Freehand is my first choice also but the grid can be very effective as you have demonstrated here. Great work keep it up.

  • pareces una impresors....jajajajaaja.muy buen trabajo y ungran talento.

  • this is not a self portrait of close

  • Awesome work and music really works well. Who are the singers and songs? Keep creating for the world to see.

  • with that tecnic you lose the sense and the meaning of drawing....i dont say it is a bad portrait however i totally disagree with your method:)

  • c'est pas de l'art dessiner avec des carreaux sur un petit format comme support, DISSLIKE your method for drawing , draw without square.
