New Mannequin Heads - Available Now!
Four new mannequin heads, designed specifically for artists, are to be used as a precursor to live models. They are bald with no eyebrows and have subtle planes so one can get a good understanding of the shape of the head and how light falls on the head. They are made to look like plaster casts, but are white polyethylene plastic, practically unbreakable, and can be mounted to a tripod (not included). These heads should be viewed from different angles with different lighting and be drawn and painted indefinitely. When proficient at this task, then go to live models. Note: soon coming to this website, using these new heads as examples will be in depth information on lighting them, values, and color.
