Features: When learning about color knowledge, (intuitive understanding) of color often exceeds (rational understanding). However, the basic principles and rules of color, as well as aesthetic awareness, are still established through practice. During practice, actively sketch and study still lifes or portraits with different tonal relationships. Each set of exercises should have distinct elements, allowing for targeted and purposeful practice, which will lead to faster progress. Color portrait training enhances the understanding of color's basic principles and rules, as well as mastering the correct observation and expression methods of color. The sense of color and the understanding of color are very important. Training in targeted color control and in-depth portrayal when facing different live models can improve the ability to actively recognize and apply color, summarize color, and depict color while mastering the basic sketching skills of color portraits. During regular training, it is necessary to conduct serious sketching and research on real-life portraits, half-length figures, and full-body figures of different ages and genders. This further consolidates the perception and understanding of light and color phenomena, improving the ability to accurately shape objects and control the overall color relationships in the composition.
