Ink an Imperfect Portrait with Richard Banks

"You really need to go into inking ready to embrace error," says Richard Banks, a designer and self-taught artist in London. "In portraiture, we’re not after perfection - we’re after impression.”
In this lesson (69 mins), Richard demonstrates his bold style of direct inking and how he embraces the "happy mistakes that come with ink."

This lesson is Part One of Richard's process. In Part Two (to be published July 26, 2024), Richard adds watercolor!
