Izismile team has recently received the following letter from one of our visitors:
“Hi, I'm from the Netherlands. I started portrait drawing 6 years ago when I was 16 years old and only made 50 drawings in around 183 hours over that period of time. It's not necessary to take classes, everyone can learn to draw portraits by themselves by just a little bit of practice and lots of patience.”
Here are several portraits drawn by the artist, sorted from the earliest to the latest so as to show how his skill has been progressing.
Thanks for sharing your works and good luck with your future drawings!

Even though he periodically suffers mild brain damage and becomes lethargic, he still continues his experiments and takes drugs that are given to him. See how his perception of the self changes in his drawings.
Photography was still new during the reign of Queen Victoria, and participants had to sit motionless for a while before a photo could be taken. Strangely, the mothers had to drape sheets over their heads for the photos, making for extremely weird portraits of their kids.
Trying to create a photographic census of the city of New York, photographer Brandon Stanton started his project called “Humans of New York”. He roamed the city streets and took over three thousand portraits. You can see some of them inside this post.
