Duey's Drawings
One of the best graphite portrait artist's that I know is Brian Duey. Brian has a comprehensive series of drawing tutorials on his website: http://www.dueysdrawings.com/drawing_tutorials.html. I highly recommend these tutorials as they are clear and concise. I frequently reference them in the art yahoo groups that I moderate and I personally refer to them anytime I am working on portraiture. Check out Brian's artwork and see if you agree with me!

Mike Sibley Workshops
I've been working this morning on the underside of the tree and grass using techniques that I learned during Mike Sibley's drawing workshop in Indiana.
It's been almost a year since the workshop and the improvement on my artwork has been incredible. And the revelations of "ah-ha"! are still happening!
To attend one of Mike's drawing workshops is an opportunity that any graphite artist should not miss. It doesn't matter what your subject matter preference is or your drawing style (from realism, sketches or abstract) the concepts and techniques Mike demonstrates can be applied to. Spending three days with one-to-one attention with a master is an experience that I will never forget.
Mike is coming back to the United States in September to conduct 4 more workshops! Visit his website http://www.sibleyfineart.com/ for workshop locations and information.
