-Head is oval -upper portion is a little wider than the lower -Greatest width of the oval is 2/3 the length -Middle of the length of the HEAD extends horizontally across the EYES -Physiognomy: the face is measured from the normal hairline to the base of the chin
Facial Proportions
-Top 1/3 is the distance between the normal hairline and the eyebrows -Middle 1/3 is the distance from the eyebrow to the base of the nose -Lower 1/3 the area between the base of the nose and the base of the chin -Length of the Ear = the distance of 1/3 of the length of the face -Length of the ear = length of the nose; 3 noses = length of the face -The length of the ear is also equal to the length from the outer corner of the eyelid to the ear passage -Widest part of the face is five eyes wide from zygomatic arch to zygomatic arch -

Basic Linear Forms
Convex; Concave; Vertical
Facial Shapes
Oval; Round; Square; Triangular; Inverted Triangle; Diamond; Oblong
Convex-Concave
Receding forehead and protruding chin
Proportions
Relationships of the side of one feature as compared with another feature or with the width and length of the face
Shadow
Surfaces which do not lie at right angles to the source of illumination; reflect little to no light
Vertical (balanced) Profile
The forehead, upper lip and chin project equally
Highlight
a surface lying at right angles to the source of illumination, which reflects the maximum amount of light; brighter part
bi-mandibular width
across the angles of the jaw
Vertical-Concave
balanced forehead and protruding chin
Vertical-Convex
balanced forehead and receding chin
Inversion
detects asymmetry
Triangular
forehead is pointed; sides widen inferiorly; jaw is the widest point; least common
Oblong
head is long and narrow throughout
Directional Lighting
light that travels in a specific direction; provided by a stronger light source
Flat Light
lighting that produces minimal contrast in the scene; very little contrast between highlights and shadows
Concave-Vertical
protruding forehead and balanced chin
Concave-Convex
protruding forehead and receding chin
Convex-Vertical
receding forehead and balanced chin
Oval Face Shape
rounded forehead, cheeks, and chin; longer than it is wide
Normal Lighting
source of lighting from above the head; reflects the greatest amount of light
Concave (least common)
the forehead protrudes beyond the eyebrow while the chin protrudes beyond the plane of the upper lip
Convex Profile (most common)
the forehead recedes posteriorly from the eyebrows and the chin recedes from the plane of the upper lip
Square
vertical and horizontal measurements are equal, hairline is straight, jaw is angled; strong
Round (infantine)
vertical distance and the width between the cheekbones are equal and the cheeks and chin are rounded
Inverted Triangel
wide angular forehead, angular jaw, pointed chin. Wide at forehead, narrow at jaw.
bi-parietal width
widest part of the carnium
bi-zygomatic width
