From my own experience, if you're creating a portrait for personal work, be open to the style changing from what you originally had in mind. It's good to let the image organically choose where it wants to go. It's something that you'll get better at with intuition. However, if you're working within preset requirements, then you're less likely to have this privilege. Attending life drawing or drawing strangers on the street will help understand the form of the human face. The more you understand, the better equipped you are for abstraction/stylising successfully. Drawing from life is better than using photographs since the lighting will be more authentic; photographs may have been edited or specific lighting has been set up. You can get a better sense of depth from looking at an object with your own eyes, rather than looking at a photograph. Your eyes are giving you two views and are merging them into one, giving you a sense of 3D space. A photograph is one view and the image is on a flat surface. You can also move around your subject. The eyes are probably the most critical part of the portrait to get "right". We naturally want to make eye contact, when we're not socially anxious. If the eyes look good, the mind will sort of fill in the blanks around them. As cliched as it sounds, the eyes are the life of the image.
Great points, thank you so much for your valuable comment! I agree that life drawing is the best way to improve and learn to observe details and forms accurately.
No one is actually saying which they prefer..... I like the stylize version I think the realistic is a great skill and stylize people don't give enough recognition of the creative talent that's incorporated with skill
shouldnt the portrait go creatively further and reinterpret what we see, because what we have in the video is reproduction and reproduction with a filter.
