I've had many people requesting a tutorial on a face. I have been experimenting and modifying to get it simplified enough to write this tutorial for you. Once you have the general idea, you can experiment and work with adding more detail.

******** SAVE AFTER EACH STEP ********

New Transparent Image 250 X 250 or larger. You may want to magnify while working to see details. Make sure Layer Palette is showing!	Step 1 New Layer (Layer 2 - Head) Name head because I'll refer to this layer later and it will make it easier to find. Use preset shape - Ellipse - filled with Vector box checked. Draw oval.
