Jon Trevillyan is a deacon in our community who has been teaching himself to draw with Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards. One of the hard parts of drawing is learning to see what is actually in front of you instead of what you believe something looks like. Because we see objects like faces every day, we have a certain thinking of how they should look. However, what we think usually isn’t accurate, and the artist has to train himself not to revert to what he thinks the subject looks like but what it actually looks like. Here Jon drew two portraits of C. S. Lewis from a picture. The second time he drew it upside down. By drawing it upside down his brain was able to see more accurately what was actually there instead of what it thought was there. As you can see, the second picture has significantly better facial anatomy and proportion.
