How to Draw Female Faces in Correct Proportions with Easy Drawing Lesson

Step 1

Firstly, you should lightly sketch an oval shape … or more specifically an upside down egg shape.

Step 2

Now draw 2 guidelines across the face. Draw one of the lines through the center of the face and then draw another line in between the middle line and the chin.

Step 3

Draw a mark in the middle of the vertical guideline and each side of the face. This mark represents the top of the eye / pupil.

Step 4

Now draw a guideline down vertically from each eye dash that you drew. Then draw the mouth in between those 2 lines.

Step 5

Now draw the eyes. Notice that the iris is centered on the red line and the eye lid is on the middle horizontal middle guideline. Put the top of the eyebrow about one eye’s height above the eye.

Figure out where to place the eyebrows by drawing a diagonal line from the left edge of the eye. Also notice how the highlight of the eye is put in.

  • It really is straight forward and those youngsters who think they want to give up or find that they are having a hard time should keep trying for a while. Few people at the beginning find it is easy but like golf or cooking or learning calligraphy you just take in lesson by lesson - do not expect to read the whole book on your subject before you go yo bed.
    Draw 10 sets of lips, then 10 ears (side view) and so on. Build up your repertoire and soon you will fit it together, a bit like a jig-saw puzzle. But the set out as shown in the diagrams is important - work with it till it all comes together for you especially if you do not believe you must be a clever artist in a short time - it will take weeks / months.
    Stay with it.
