I'm a self taught artist, despite my BFA—I learned how to draw more from my own exploration than I did at Fine Arts college, because they didn't really teach me how to render or be a draughstman. So it was only recently that I came across using a circle and a flatted circular plane as the bases for a 3/4 view of a face. And while I began doodling this face as I normally do, without any such structure, I went back in and then drew teh shapes in the background and adjusted my sketch based on that, and I think it turned out better. Of course, the guy's a bit wide-eyed but that's because I was thinking of Andrew Scott, who has a bit of a crazed look in his eyes.
