Since childhood, we also often draw with various colored pencils.

By drawing we can release our ability to practice creativity. The key to good eyelashes is getting used to the swooping motion and making sure they are thinner towards the ends and thicker towards the base.Drawing is a very pleasant art. I have a step by step for this step that you can check out here.Įyelashes: Draw in the eyelashes using curved lines that are similar in nature to the eyebrows. For a more detailed eye you can check out the tutorials that go over highlights and the dark of the pupil.Įyebrows: Draw in the eyebrows by filling in guidelines for the overall shape and then drawing in the hairs. Semi Circle: Add the dark region of the eye, for this, I have added one large semi-circle for the entire center of the eye. Take time to erase and change the design as you see fit, you can create a lot of personality and character just in the design of the eye. Lower Lid: Add an opposing curved line for the bottom lid, this gives us the overall shape of the eye. You can really play around with the shapes of the eyes, but the inner corners tend to have a sharp angle to them. Upper Lid: Draw curved lines with a steep angle on the end towards the nose to define the upper lid of the eye. To practice drawing the head, grab the worksheet below and you can also check out a more specific step by step tutorial here This area is sunken into the sphere we drew earlier. There is a clear distinction between the side plane and front plane of the head in this step, this makes it easier to understand how the head sits in 3D space.Įye Sockets: Add two horizontal lines that create a region for the eyes to fit within. Jaw & Cheeks: Define the chin using the center-line of the previous step and then draw in the jaw and cheeks from there. The center-line will help us place the features on the face, make sure to get it in the right place. This describes the orientation of the head, notice how we can already see which way the head is facing with this step. This step is crucial in being able to draw heads from imagination because it allows us to construct the rest of the portrait.Ĭenterline & Side: Define the side plane and centerline of the head. Sphere: Start by drawing a sphere which is the large form of the head.
