Types of Portraits:
HEAD STUDY

Head Study is a portrait of the head and shoulders. It can also include the upper body.

A Head Study can be a human, dog, cat, or horse. Or it can be any combination of those, for example a human and dog in the same portrait.

A Head Study portrait is usually done on a plain-color background. I will suggest the colors that work best for that individual, or you may have your own background color preference. The background can also be a splash of colors that sets off the figure, or a background scene.
