This bundle combines Realistic Portrait Drawing and Osamu Dazai Portrait into a structural learning path — from the fundamentals of portrait drawing to the memory of bone, muscle, and surface.

Within the Lo Chan Peng Painting System, this bundle can be understood as a portrait-drawing learning path: moving from foundational observation into the deeper structure beneath the visible face.

Realistic Portrait Drawing — Introduction

Drawing is the foundation of all visual art.

Your medium might be digital painting, watercolor, oil, acrylic, colored pencil, and so on — but creating good work is inseparable from the foundation of drawing. The human portrait especially, with its complex structure, lays bare a creator's true command of drawing.

In your own practice, have you ever found yourself wanting to...

Truly master the proportions of the facial features

Render poses and expressions so they come alive

Handle even complex hair so it looks natural

Capture a person's emotion and expression

Whatever your current stage or sticking point, returning to drawing practice is the key to raising the level of your work.

Grasp the essence of portrait painting alongside an internationally recognized contemporary realist artist.

Lo Chan Peng is an internationally acclaimed contemporary Taiwanese artist, known for realist portrait painting. His work is lifelike and vivid, creating a pure and profound atmosphere. He is also exceptional at capturing a subject's emotions and inner state, and his work holds an immersive magic that draws the viewer in — making him a highly acclaimed master of realist portrait painting in contemporary art.

A word from Lo Chan Peng:

Painting is a fascinating act. With only the simplest materials and a single afternoon, you can create a stretch of time in dialogue with yourself. To complete a painting from nothing is an immersive experience — and it is my everyday life. To me it is a beauty I cannot stop pursuing, and one I hope to share with you through this course.

Osamu Dazai Portrait

This graphite portrait of Osamu Dazai begins from the internal structure: building a complete drawing through an understanding of bone and muscle. It is a workout for your foundational skill.

The Osamu Dazai drawing is aimed at more advanced students — it no longer starts from materials and basic concepts, but goes straight into drawing the portrait.

This film focuses on the memory of bone, muscle, and skin.

Suitable for: students who have completed foundational drawing
