• Locate the head in advance and draw its approximate size using an oval. • Divide the head in half with the centre horizontal line. Draw 1 more above head. At the same distance, add an edge top line. • Under the centre horizontal line, add 4 more at the same distance. At 1/3 of this distance, add the lowest line. • Draw a central vertical line the centre of the head. • Draw 2 vertical lines on the sides of the head. From them, draw from them to the sides 2 lines: -1 line at the same distance and 1 line 2/3 to the left -1 line at the same distance and 1 2/3 to the right. The left and rightmost lines are the vertical boundaries of your drawing.
