Mastering the Art of Portraits: Rendel Lotino’s Workshop at MIBF Using Uni Pin and Kurutoga
At this year’s Manila International Book Fair (MIBF), artist Rendel Lotino took center stage with his captivating Portrait Drawing Workshop, where attendees were introduced to the fine art of sketching portraits using Uni Pin Fine Line Pens and the innovative Uni Kurutoga Mechanical Pencils.
Known for his attention to detail and lifelike portraits, Rendel guided participants through the essentials of portraiture, from capturing facial expressions to mastering proportions and shading techniques. Using Uni Pin, participants learned how to create clean, precise lines, ideal for outlining and adding intricate details to their sketches. Meanwhile, the Kurutoga Mechanical Pencil, with its unique rotating lead mechanism, allowed for a consistently sharp point, perfect for sketching soft lines and defining facial features with ease.
The workshop was an immersive experience where both aspiring and experienced artists refined their skills under Rendel’s expert guidance. Attendees walked away not only with beautifully sketched portraits but also a deeper understanding of the tools that bring their art to life.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Rendel Lotino and everyone who joined us at MIBF to explore the world of portrait drawing. Stay tuned for more exciting workshops where you can discover the magic of Uni Mitsubishi Pencil products and unleash your creativity!
