Week 8 Homework Assignment
Working with Photographs
The Time Has Come For You to Choose….
Please read all of the following so you do not lose unnecessary points:
Step 1:
Choose your favorite person: An actor, actress, musician, etc. This individual
cannot
be a loved one/friend/family, and must be an individual that actual photographs have been taken of–no paintings/portraits. This is the individual yo will be deconstructing and reconstructing throughout the remainder of your RAI, II, and III classes, so choose wisely.
Keep in mind that you will be looking at these photos in order to analyze/deconstruct/define/recreate these same features later…so make sure you choose someone you can look at for an extended period of time.
Choose wisely as you will start learning more and more about this individual from here on out…
Step 2:
Begin searching online for GOOD photos of the individual with a front facial view photo and a profile view photo. Keep in mind that hairstyle may block the ears in a profile view, so make sure the photos you choose CLEARLY show all the attributes you need to see. Save both of these photos for the future (you can always find more photos later as well).
Step 3:
Print out the front view head shot photograph FULL SIZE (Can be black and white, OR color; on 8 x11 paper—does not have to be glossy paper). You may want to print out several copies so you have some for practice.
Step 4:
Grab a ruler and a pencil.
Go over the exercises on pages 36 &37. When viewing the photograph, be sure to use the inverted position, or, lay the photo down as if you were standing at the head of a prep table looking out at the top of the head with the chin of the individual away from you. This will help you see any symmetrical/asymmetrical features. Also, pay attention to the bilateral forms of your individual (listed on page 35 of your text).
Make sure you invert the photo! This will be vital as you progress through restorative art AND throughout your career as restorative artists.
Step 5:
Once you have your photograph printed and ready, go through page 36 and draw your horizontal lines.
After completing the horizontal lines, compare the lengths that should be equal, according to page 38, with your photo to determine symmetry/asymmetry.
Step 6:
Proceed to page 37, and follow the instructions drawing the lines to gain facial width using the width of the eye.
Have fun with this assignment, you will be using this process over and over, so let this be a good practice run for you. It will also help you immensely with remembering the 1/3, 2/3, and other dimensions you need to know now and in the future.
For this week’s discussion, upload the photo with your work and answer the following symmetry/asymmetry questions with what you discovered.
1. Is your person’s face actually 5 eyes wide?
2. Is their face 3 noses long?
3. Are the nose and ear equal in length?
4. Is the nose 1 eye wide?
5. Is the mouth 2 eyes wide?
6. Is the space between the eyes 1 eye wide?
7. Is the superior border of the ear on the same horizontal plane as the eyebrows?
8. Does the bottom of the ear line up with the base of the nose?
9. Is the face 3 ears long?
10. How many heads tall is an average adult?
Do their proportions, technically, fall into categories of the “Canon of Beauty” or the “Canon of Ugliness”? The “Canon of Ugliness” is given to anyone whose features may fall outside of the Canon of Beauty.

HORIZONTAL LINES
Divided by 8 lines
Creates 6 Special Zones
1st – Divide face in two equal halves by drawing a line at:
Vertex (top) of the cranium
The line of eye closure
Base of the chin
2nd – Divide the face in three equal parts by drawing lines through the:
Hairline
Eyebrows
Base of nose
Base of chin
3rd – Divide the area between the base of the nose and the base of the chin into three equal parts by drawing lines through:
Base of nose
Line of lip closure
Top of chin
Base of chin
VERTICAL LINES
Vertical lines are used to determine the width of head features by using the width of the eye as a standard of measurement.
1st – Draw a line down from the medial corner of each eye. This line will extend to the corner of the wing of the nose.
2nd – Extend a line down from the lateral corner of each eye. This line will extend to the sides/cheek area of the face.
3rd – Extend a line down from the middle of the eye. This line will extend to the corner of the mouth.
PROPORTIONAL RELATIONSHIPS
Using different facial features as units of measurement for the face:
HEAD
The widest part of the head is measured by the distance between the two parietal eminences.
NOSE
The face is three noses long.
The length of the nose is equal to the length of the ear.
The width of the nose at the wings is equal to the width of an eye.
EYES
The face is five eyes from one zygomatic arch to the other zygomatic arch.
The distance between the eyes is equal to the width of one eye.
The mouth is two eyes wide.
EAR
The superior border of the ear is on the same horizontal plane as the eyebrows.
The inferior border of the ear is on the same horizontal place as the base of the nose.
The face is three ears long.
THUMB AND INDEX FINGER
Sanders (1980) states:
When using the thumb and the index finger as a unit of measure, hold the thumb parallel to the index finger. The distance from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the index finger is equal to the following measurements:
The length of the ear
The length of the nose
The normal hairline to the root of the nose
The base of the nose to the bottom of the chin.
THE FOLLOWING FOUR MEANSUREMENTS ARE EQUAL:
Ear passage to the tip of the nose.
Eyebrow to the base of the chin.
Hairline to the base of the nose.
Ear passage to ear passage.
Also…
The height of an average adult is seven to eight heads tall.
The width of the face is two-thirds the length of the face.

BASIC RULES OF FACIAL PROPORTIONS
(additional reading, J. Sheridan Mayer, pages 81-85)
The nose is approximately 1 eye wide.
The mouth is approximately 2 eyes wide.
The face can be divided into thirds or ninths.
The face is 5 eyes wide (at the zygomatic arches).
The line of eye closure is in the middle of the head.
The width of the face is 2/3 of the length of the face.
The average ear occupies the middle 1/3 of the face.
The head can be divided into halves, fifths, or tenths.
The average nose occupies the middle 1/3 of the face.
The distance between the eyes is approximately 1 eye wide.
The length of the head = the length of the face + 1/9 of the face.
The medial corner of each eye is in alignment with the wings of the nose.
The corners of the mouth are in alignment with the midpoint of each eye.
The distance from the lateral canthus of one eye to the medial canthus of the other eye = 2 eyes wide.

Needs:
Pages 82-84
Ruler
Pencil
Printed photo
Having several copies may help
First Step:
Print a full page photo (color or black and white)
Works best on regular paper instead of glossy
Invert the Photo
It is easier to see asymmetry and bilateral differences
AND, it makes your task more objective
Let’s Begin…
For demonstration purposes, I am going to leave the photo in it’s original position
Step 2:
Find the vertex of the cranium and the base of the chin
This will help you find the Line of Eye Closure
Step 3:
Find Equal Thirds of the Face:
Hairline to Eyebrows
Eyebrows to Base of Nose
Base of Nose to Base of Chin
Measure vertically from the hairline to the base of the chin and divide into 3 equal segments
Proportions According to the Canon of Beauty
Ear and Nose should be in the same middle 1/3 of the face
Top of the Ear should be on same line as the Eyebrow
Bottom of Ear should be on same line as Base of the Nose
Step 4:
Divide the lower third into 3 equal segments
Step 5:
Line of Lip Closure
Halfway between Base of Nose and TOP of Chin
Next: Widths of the Face
Step 6:
Measure 1 eye
In this photo 1 eye + 3/8” (in red)
Eye Widths
Face should be 5 eyes wide (zygomatic arch to zygomatic arch)
One eye width between eyes
Nose is One Eye wide
Mouth is Two Eyes wide
One Eye width from Lateral Corner of Eye to Side of Face
