(445,1,'2013-05-24 05:52:34','2013-05-24 12:52:34','<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6.gif\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-280\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6.gif\" width=\"450\" height=\"343\" /></a></p>\r\nHere we have a drawing of a bride, eyes wide and looking from behind a bouquet. The central focus will be on her eyes and how to draw them. Hopefully after giving this a try, you will learn to include all of the little details that bring the eyes to life. So refer to the reference photo below, as well as my step-by-step drawings, and let’s draw some eyes!\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-343\" title=\"© Pzaxe | Dreamstime.com\" alt=\"http://www.dreamstime.com/-image16063419\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares across and 3 squares down. They can be any size you choose. Just make sure to use a ruler and make perfect squares if you are hoping for a more accurate drawing of the photograph. If you are good at sketching lines and can make boxes approximately the same size, that will work too for this drawing (since we are not trying to capture a likeness).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-288\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"01p bride eyes grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 2: Outline of the Eyes</h3>\r\nOnce again, if you are using your grid for accuracy, pay close attention to placement. For example, the corner of the bride’s left eye (right side of the drawing) is approximately at the imaginary center line of its grid box (lined up with the arrow). Also, notice how the widths of both eyes are the same, and there is about one eye-width between the two eyes. This is a standard rule of thumb for drawing eyes looking directly at you, no matter who you are drawing! You can also include the tear ducts at this point.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-290\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"02p bride eyes outline\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 3: Upper Eyelids</h3>\r\nDraw a thin line above each eye’s outline to represent the eyelids. Draw lines from the outer corners that will lead to the brows. Draw lines from the inner corners to the upper bridge of the nose.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-294\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"03p bride eyes upper lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 4: Irises and Pupils</h3>\r\nUsing your grid and guidelines to help you, lightly sketch circles for the irises and pupils. If necessary, try a few times until you get satisfactory size and placement. Then, trace over them as carefully as you can to make them as round as possible. I like to use a <a title=\"Chartpak Pickett Circle Template for Drawing Eyes\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/chartpak-pickett-template-1204i-circle-master-116-to-3-inches-diameters-116-to-3-in-2/\">circle template</a> to make this tracing easier and more accurate. Remember, too, to make smaller circles serving as highlights (or catchlights).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-336\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"04p bride eyes irises and pupils\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 5: Lower Eyelids</h3>\r\nRepeat the same process as you did for the upper eyelids to make the lower lids. Draw a thin line under the white part of the eye. This line is actually for the top rim of the lower eyelids, where we will place the lower eyelashes later. Underneath this, draw any characteristic lines that support the bottom of the eyeballs.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-337\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"05p bride eyes lower lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 6: Surrounding Features</h3>\r\nDraw the eyebrows, bouquet, face, ear, hair, veil, and any other features that you want to include. Put as much or as little detail as you wish. You can just use simple shapes, especially for the bouquet. It is okay if some of the drawing extends outside of the grid squares.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-338\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"06p bride eyes surrounding\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 7: Guidelines for Shading</h3>\r\nDraw light lines where you see shadows. The shading you will add later will provide form to the eyes and surrounding facial features.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-339\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"07p bride eyes shading\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 8: Erase Grid Lines</h3>\r\nCarefully erase the grid lines. Try to erase as much as you can without affecting the lines of the actual drawing. If you can still see some light lines (as indicated by the arrow), it’s not too big of a deal. You can mask them later with shading.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-340\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"08p bride eyes erase\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 9: Shading and Details</h3>\r\nUse the lines you made earlier and the reference photo to add shading. Try to use soft strokes that go in the same direction as the surfaces you are shading. For the eyebrows, I lightly shade what was drawn before, and then I use short pencil lines to represent the individual hairs. Pay attention to direction, and notice how most but not all of the little hairs flow together. For the whites of the eyes, I almost always put a little bit of shading under the upper eyelids and some on each corner to give that spherical look to the eyeballs. Make the pupils as dark as you possibly can. For the iris, make the outer rim darker, and draw lines going toward the pupil. Leave the catchlights white by shading around them.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-341\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"09p bride eyes details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 10: Eyelashes</h3>\r\nI like to leave the eyelashes as the last step for the eyes. This way, I can have all of my desired shading complete and place the lashes over it, for a more natural appearance. Carefully trace part of the upper eyelid in dark black before placing the upper eyelashes. This will give them a certain thickness. Use fine pencil lines from the lids outward for each of the hairs (much like the eyebrows). Pay attention to direction, and make the lower eyelashes shorter.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-342\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"10p bride eyes lashes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\nYou may have heard it said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. That is why drawing eyes correctly is so vital for portrait artists. The eyes are a very important (if not the most important) part of capturing a subject’s true likeness. Apply what you learn from this drawing to other drawings like it that focus mainly on the eyes. Then, when you try to draw a familiar face, you will likely see a better resemblance in your work!','How to Draw Eyes of the Bride','','inherit','open','open','','271-revision-v1','','','2013-05-24 05:52:34','2013-05-24 12:52:34','',271,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/271-revision-27/',0,'revision','',0),(446,1,'2013-05-24 05:53:15','2013-05-24 12:53:15','<center><iframe src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/kJw_7IeQEZ8?rel=0\" height=\"360\" width=\"640\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"></iframe></center>When making a drawing of celebrities (or anyone else, for that matter), it&#146;s helpful to look for characteristics in their features that stand out or make them unique. Noticing these characteristics and including them in your drawing will help you to create a closer, more accurate likeness. In this tutorial, we will use this reference photo to learn how to draw Justin Bieber. Justin is a very popular star, and his face is known all over the world. I will point out some key characteristics of Justin&#146;s facial features along the way that will help us get a likeness that is close to his. So here we go&#133; watch the video above, read the steps below, and try your hand at it too!\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/dreamstime_xs_25283976.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-166\" alt=\"&copy; Carrienelson1 | Dreamstime.com\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/dreamstime_xs_25283976.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid and Guidelines</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 3 squares by 5 squares. As you follow along with me, try to draw as accurately as possible what you see in each square to keep things in proportion. Next, draw some basic guidelines for the face. Our reference photo is a recent picture of the Biebs, so since he is growing older, our &#147;oval&#148; shape will reflect a longer and more narrow face than when Justin was a younger child. Also, notice the lightly-drawn guidelines that will serve as rough placement for the center of the face, eyes, nose, and mouth.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/01-bieber-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-214\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"01 bieber grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/01-bieber-grid.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 2: Draw the Eyes</h3>\r\nNotice in the previous step I said &#147;rough placement&#148;. Guidelines are meant to give you general guidance, but you don&#146;t have to be tied to them. So, rather than drawing the eyes directly on the guideline, I drew them just below the line, with the eyebrows above the guideline. Justin has noticeable eyelashes, so I didn&#146;t leave those out of the drawing. In addition, there is a tiny bit of foreshortening present since Justin&#146;s head is slightly turned. Therefore, I decided to leave one eye looking a little smaller than the other.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/02-bieber-eyes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-216\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"02 bieber eyes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/02-bieber-eyes.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 3: Make Justin&#146;s Nose</h3>\r\nOur reference photo shows a nose with a rather short bridge and round tip. You can almost see the &#147;ball&#148; of cartilage at the bottom. These are distinguishing features to include when drawing Justin Bieber&#146;s nose. A not-so distinguishing feature (since it&#146;s common to just about everyone) is how the outer part of the nostril is practically in line with the inside corner of the eye.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/03-bieber-nose.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-217\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"03 bieber nose\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/03-bieber-nose.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 4: Draw His Mouth</h3>\r\nUse a combination of lines and shading to form some of the curves in Justin&#146;s lips. The front teeth that are visible in our photo look very similar in size. Take your time with the teeth. They can be tricky to draw but go a long way with forming a likeness. Also, draw some of the subtle lines outside the corners of Justin&#146;s mouth that form his smile and cheeks.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/04-bieber-mouth.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-219\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"04 bieber mouth\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/04-bieber-mouth.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 5: Form the Ears and the Outline of the Face</h3>\r\nOnce again, because of foreshortening, one ear is clearly visible and the other is obstructed by Justin&#146;s face and barely noticeable. Just try to draw the outer part of the lobe that can be seen. Be sure to draw the earrings that Justin likes to sport too. Notice as well the characteristic lines that connect the cheeks to the chin.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/05-bieber-ears.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-221\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"05 bieber ears\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/05-bieber-ears.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 6: Draw Justin&#146;s Hair</h3>\r\nOkay, so far we are doing good, but it looks like we have a bald Biebs. What would a drawing of Justin Bieber be without all of that hair? He&#146;s got a lot of it that sits thick above the top of his skull. You are going to have to pay attention to how the hair is styled in different directions, and just &#147;go with the flow&#148;.&nbsp; Draw lines that go in the direction of the hair growth. Use the reference photo to assist you. You can see how he has a lot of strands curving upward from the hairline. Use combinations of dark against light as shown here to build volume. Draw a few hairs that are loose and hang away from the mass.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/06-bieber-hair.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-223\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"06 bieber hair\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/06-bieber-hair.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 7: Draw the Neck and Jacket</h3>\r\nThere&#146;s not too much to this part. We notice Justin wearing a t-shirt and jacket with a chain around his neck. We don&#146;t see the whole chain, since it hangs down out of our view. Do draw a bit of a shadow that Justin&#146;s chin casts on his neck.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/07-bieber-neck.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-225\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"07 bieber neck\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/07-bieber-neck.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 8: Erase and Add Final Details</h3>\r\nCarefully erase your guidelines. This includes your square gridlines and any facial guidelines you no longer want. A kneaded eraser is useful for this part, as it helps you maneuver around what you want to keep. Add in some final details. These could include a few moles unique to Justin&#146;s face, a few extra strands or highlights in the hair (again, great use for the kneaded eraser!), or just some other features you want to go back and better define. Add as much or as little shading as you want to make you satisfied with your final drawing.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/08-bieber.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-227\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"08 bieber\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/08-bieber.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></p>\r\nThere you have it, a few simple steps for how to draw Justin Bieber! Remember, even if your finished drawing doesn&#146;t look completely like Justin, including facial characteristics that are unique to him will help with the resemblance. And of course, the more detail and shading you include, the more realistic your drawing of Justin Bieber will look. There&#146;s no set rule as to how much detail to include. It all just depends on what level of realism you are trying to achieve!\r\n<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"//assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js\"></script>','How to Draw Justin Bieber','','inherit','open','open','','165-revision-v1','','','2013-05-24 05:53:15','2013-05-24 12:53:15','',165,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/165-revision-51/',0,'revision','',0),(508,2,'2013-06-27 16:34:15','2013-06-27 23:34:15','my_terms_of_service','Terms of Service','','inherit','open','open','','507-revision-v1','','','2013-06-27 16:34:15','2013-06-27 23:34:15','',507,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/507-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(3581,2,'2017-06-15 13:47:49','2017-06-15 20:47:49','<center><iframe src=\"https://player.vimeo.com/video/220141712\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></center>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https://vimeo.com/user12844418/review/220141712/0a0d6bda7f\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download Video</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Throughout this video series, watch and draw along with me as I take you step-by-step through a realistic pencil portrait of \"Ann\" from start to finish.</p>\r\n\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_3485\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"425\"]<img class=\"wp-image-3485 size-full\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Ann-post-ref.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"425\" height=\"600\" /> <center><b> © <a href=\"https://www.dreamstime.com/nadino_info\">Nadino</a> | <a href=\"https://www.dreamstime.com/\">Dreamstime.com</a></b></center>[/caption]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[one_half]\r\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\"Ann\" Video Series</span></h2>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">[divider style=\"solid\" top=\"20\" bottom=\"20\"]</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Part 1</strong></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/ann-part-2/\">Part 2</a>*</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/ann-part-3/\">Part 3</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/ann-part-4/\">Part 4</a></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[/one_half][one_half_last]\r\n\r\nIn this <strong>second video session</strong> of the series, we will:\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Discuss selection and preparation of the reference photograph.</li>\r\n 	<li>Apply a grid to the reference photograph.</li>\r\n 	<li>Prepare a grid for our drawing paper.</li>\r\n 	<li>Discuss the materials we plan to use throughout the entire \"Ann\" series.</li>\r\n 	<li>Make a line drawing of the eyes.</li>\r\n 	<li>Make a line drawing of the nose.</li>\r\n 	<li>Make a line drawing of the mouth.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n[/one_half_last]\r\n<h2>Materials and Resources</h2>\r\nThe following materials and resources are introduced or used during this video session.

At <a title=\"Let\'s Draw People\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com\">Let\'s Draw People</a>, it is our mission to awaken the inner artist in everyday people (including you!)...by drawing people. We believe that no matter which path in life you followed, you can rediscover and reignite that childhood passion of drawing you had when you were scribbling smiley faces and sketching stick figures. The reason we do what we do is to help other \"aspiring\" portrait artists who wish to improve their skills when it comes to drawing people.\r\n<h4>OUR GOAL</h4>\r\nOur goal is to build a community of people from all walks of life who commit to spending more time on what they have always enjoyed doing...drawing people! Our aim is for people who don\'t draw everyday to realize their true hidden talents and potential, to begin creating realistic pencil portraits that will amaze themselves and those they know and love.\r\n<h4>HOW WE DO IT</h4>\r\nMaybe you wish to learn how to draw something more advanced than a stick person. You wanted to learn, but life, jobs, and family got in the way and now your kids can draw people better than you. Or, maybe you already have some artistic talent, but you always struggle when it comes to drawing people. You often say, \"Does her face look right to you?\" or \"I can\'t keep from drawing his hand crooked.\"\r\n\r\nWhether you are just starting to draw all over again or if you have some experience, Let\'s Draw People lets you take your skills as an aspiring portrait artist to the next level. Here you will find tips and techniques to help you draw the human face and form in a variety of styles. We have informative articles, step-by-step tutorials and pictures, and how-to videos by a selection of artists that can accommodate your needs and abilities. As your skills develop, you may be able to eventually share your work in a gallery on this site to have your artwork recognized and appreciated by our followers. Better yet, you may be able to become a <a title=\"Draw for Us\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/draw-for-us/\">contributing artist and author</a> for us!\r\n<h4>HOW WE GOT STARTED</h4>\r\nLet\'s Draw People was founded by Jack Pearce, a guy who had a love for drawing ever since he was 3 years old and never really grew out of it. Although he loved drawing everything under the sun, Jack always had a special fascination with drawing people. The more Jack\'s skills developed, the more he wanted to focus on drawing people, especially realistic portraits in pencil (his favorite medium). Growing up, Jack always believed he would make a living as an artist. However, as the realities of adulthood and other interests sat in, the term \"starving artist\" began to have more meaning, and Jack eventually took other jobs and degree programs that lead to a career as a teacher in Nevada.\r\n\r\nJack still occasionally drew portraits for people, and whenever he did, it triggered that childhood passion and desire to draw all the time.

At <a title=\"Let\'s Draw People\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com\">Let\'s Draw People</a>, it is our mission to awaken the inner artist in everyday people (including you!)...by drawing people. We believe that no matter which path in life you followed, you can rediscover and reignite that childhood passion of drawing you had when you were scribbling smiley faces and sketching stick figures. The reason we do what we do is to help other \"aspiring\" portrait artists who wish to improve their skills when it comes to drawing people.\r\n<h4>OUR GOAL</h4>\r\nOur goal is to build a community of people from all walks of life who commit to spending more time on what they have always enjoyed doing...drawing people! Our aim is for people who don\'t draw everyday to realize their true hidden talents and potential, to begin creating realistic pencil portraits that will amaze themselves and those they know and love.\r\n<h4>HOW WE DO IT</h4>\r\nMaybe you wish to learn how to draw something more advanced than a stick person. You wanted to learn, but life, jobs, and family got in the way and now your kids can draw people better than you. Or, maybe you already have some artistic talent, but you always struggle when it comes to drawing people. You often say, \"Does her face look right to you?\" or \"I can\'t keep from drawing his hand crooked.\"\r\n\r\nWhether you are just starting to draw all over again or if you have some experience, Let\'s Draw People lets you take your skills as an aspiring portrait artist to the next level. Here you will find tips and techniques to help you draw the human face and form in a variety of styles. We have informative articles, step-by-step tutorials and pictures, and how-to videos by a selection of artists that can accommodate your needs and abilities. As your skills develop, you may be able to eventually share your work in a gallery on this site to have your artwork recognized and appreciated by our followers. Better yet, you may be able to become a <a title=\"Draw for Us\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/draw-for-us/\">contributing artist and author</a> for us!\r\n<h4>HOW WE GOT STARTED</h4>\r\nLet\'s Draw People was founded by Jack Pearce, a guy who had a love for drawing ever since he was 3 years old and never really grew out of it. Although he loved drawing everything under the sun, Jack always had a special fascination with drawing people. The more Jack\'s skills developed, the more he wanted to focus on drawing people, especially realistic portraits in pencil (his favorite medium). Growing up, Jack always believed he would make a living as an artist. However, as the realities of adulthood and other interests sat in, the term \"starving artist\" began to have more meaning, and Jack eventually took other jobs and degree programs that lead to a career as a teacher in Nevada.\r\n\r\nJack still occasionally drew portraits for people, and whenever he did, it triggered that childhood passion and desire to draw all the time. He formed Let\'s Draw People as a way to bring together others who have similar experiences, who have that wish of having the freedom to draw all day long as they so innocently did as kids. He formed Let\'s Draw People as a way to bring together portrait artists who want to share their knowledge and artwork, to help others learn, and to motivate each other to carve out more time for their passion for drawing, no matter how much life gets in the way.\r\n<h4>NOW, YOU GET STARTED!</h4>\r\n<a style=\"font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;\" title=\"Let\'s Draw People\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com\">Check back often</a><span style=\"font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;\"> to find new articles and videos that will help you to better understand how to draw people!

The central focus will be on her eyes and how to draw them. Hopefully after giving this a try, you will learn to include all of the little details that bring the eyes to life. So refer to the reference photo below, as well as my step-by-step drawings, and let’s draw some eyes!\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-343\" title=\"© Pzaxe | Dreamstime.com\" alt=\"http://www.dreamstime.com/-image16063419\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares across and 3 squares down. They can be any size you choose. Just make sure to use a ruler and make perfect squares if you are hoping for a more accurate drawing of the photograph. If you are good at sketching lines and can make boxes approximately the same size, that will work too for this drawing (since we are not trying to capture a likeness).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-288\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"01p bride eyes grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 2: Outline of the Eyes</h3>\r\nOnce again, if you are using your grid for accuracy, pay close attention to placement. For example, the corner of the bride’s left eye (right side of the drawing) is approximately at the imaginary center line of its grid box (lined up with the arrow). Also, notice how the widths of both eyes are the same, and there is about one eye-width between the two eyes. This is a standard rule of thumb for drawing eyes looking directly at you, no matter who you are drawing! You can also include the tear ducts at this point.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-290\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"02p bride eyes outline\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 3: Upper Eyelids</h3>\r\nDraw a thin line above each eye’s outline to represent the eyelids. Draw lines from the outer corners that will lead to the brows. Draw lines from the inner corners to the upper bridge of the nose.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-294\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"03p bride eyes upper lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 4: Irises and Pupils</h3>\r\nUsing your grid and guidelines to help you, lightly sketch circles for the irises and pupils. If necessary, try a few times until you get satisfactory size and placement. Then, trace over them as carefully as you can to make them as round as possible. I like to use a <a title=\"Pickett Template 1204-i Circle Master\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/pickett-template-1204-i-circle-master/\">circle template</a> to make this tracing easier and more accurate. Remember, too, to make smaller circles serving as highlights (or catchlights).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-336\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"04p bride eyes irises and pupils\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 5: Lower Eyelids</h3>\r\nRepeat the same process as you did for the upper eyelids to make the lower lids. Draw a thin line under the white part of the eye. This line is actually for the top rim of the lower eyelids, where we will place the lower eyelashes later. Underneath this, draw any characteristic lines that support the bottom of the eyeballs.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-337\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"05p bride eyes lower lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 6: Surrounding Features</h3>\r\nDraw the eyebrows, bouquet, face, ear, hair, veil, and any other features that you want to include. Put as much or as little detail as you wish. You can just use simple shapes, especially for the bouquet. It is okay if some of the drawing extends outside of the grid squares.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-338\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"06p bride eyes surrounding\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 7: Guidelines for Shading</h3>\r\nDraw light lines where you see shadows. The shading you will add later will provide form to the eyes and surrounding facial features.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-339\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"07p bride eyes shading\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 8: Erase Grid Lines</h3>\r\nCarefully erase the grid lines. Try to erase as much as you can without affecting the lines of the actual drawing. If you can still see some light lines (as indicated by the arrow), it’s not too big of a deal. You can mask them later with shading.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-340\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"08p bride eyes erase\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 9: Shading and Details</h3>\r\nUse the lines you made earlier and the reference photo to add shading. Try to use soft strokes that go in the same direction as the surfaces you are shading. For the eyebrows, I lightly shade what was drawn before, and then I use short pencil lines to represent the individual hairs. Pay attention to direction, and notice how most but not all of the little hairs flow together. For the whites of the eyes, I almost always put a little bit of shading under the upper eyelids and some on each corner to give that spherical look to the eyeballs. Make the pupils as dark as you possibly can. For the iris, make the outer rim darker, and draw lines going toward the pupil. Leave the catchlights white by shading around them.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-341\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"09p bride eyes details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 10: Eyelashes</h3>\r\nI like to leave the eyelashes as the last step for the eyes. This way, I can have all of my desired shading complete and place the lashes over it, for a more natural appearance. Carefully trace part of the upper eyelid in dark black before placing the upper eyelashes. This will give them a certain thickness. Use fine pencil lines from the lids outward for each of the hairs (much like the eyebrows). Pay attention to direction, and make the lower eyelashes shorter.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-694\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\nYou may have heard it said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. That is why drawing eyes correctly is so vital for portrait artists. The eyes are a very important (if not the most important) part of capturing a subject’s true likeness. Apply what you learn from this drawing to other drawings like it that focus mainly on the eyes. Then, when you try to draw a familiar face, you will likely see a better resemblance in your work!','How to Draw Eyes of the Bride','','inherit','open','open','','271-revision-v1','','','2013-07-28 16:21:40','2013-07-28 23:21:40','',271,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/271-revision-37/',0,'revision','',0),(710,2,'2013-07-28 16:54:47','2013-07-28 23:54:47','','03p bride eyes upper lids','','inherit','open','open','','03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids','','','2013-07-28 16:54:47','2013-07-28 23:54:47','',271,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1039,2,'2014-05-03 05:47:29','2014-05-03 12:47:29','[amzn_product_post]','Impact Multiboom Light Stand and Reflector Holder - 13\' (4m)','This is an <b>Impact Convertible Boom Arm/Light Stand. </b>As a light stand, it can support a small or medium light head to a height of 13\' (4 m).

At <a title=\"Let\'s Draw People\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com\">Let\'s Draw People</a>, it is our mission to awaken the inner artist in everyday people (including you!)...by drawing people. We believe that no matter which path in life you followed, you can rediscover and reignite that childhood passion of drawing you had when you were scribbling smiley faces and sketching stick figures. The reason we do what we do is to help other \"aspiring\" portrait artists who wish to improve their skills when it comes to drawing people.\r\n<h4>OUR GOAL</h4>\r\nOur goal is to build a community of people from all walks of life who commit to spending more time on what they have always enjoyed doing...drawing people! Our aim is for people who don\'t draw everyday to realize their true hidden talents and potential, to begin creating realistic pencil portraits that will amaze themselves and those they know and love.\r\n<h4>HOW WE DO IT</h4>\r\nMaybe you wish to learn how to draw something more advanced than a stick person. You wanted to learn, but life, jobs, and family got in the way and now your kids can draw people better than you. Or, maybe you already have some artistic talent, but you always struggle when it comes to drawing people. You often say, \"Does her face look right to you?\" or \"I can\'t keep from drawing his hand crooked.\"\r\n\r\nWhether you are just starting to draw all over again or if you have some experience, Let\'s Draw People lets you take your skills as an aspiring portrait artist to the next level. Here you will find tips and techniques to help you draw the human face and form in a variety of styles. We have informative articles, step-by-step tutorials and pictures, and how-to videos by a selection of artists that can accommodate your needs and abilities. As your skills develop, you may be able to eventually share your work in a <a title=\"Portrait Galleries\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/portrait-galleries/\">gallery</a> on this site to have your artwork recognized and appreciated by our followers. Better yet, you may be able to become a <a title=\"Draw for Us\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/draw-for-us/\">contributing artist and author</a> for us!\r\n<h4>HOW WE GOT STARTED</h4>\r\nLet\'s Draw People was founded by Jack Pearce, a guy who had a love for drawing ever since he was 3 years old and never really grew out of it. Although he loved drawing everything under the sun, Jack always had a special fascination with drawing people. The more Jack\'s skills developed, the more he wanted to focus on drawing people, especially realistic portraits in pencil (his favorite medium). Growing up, Jack always believed he would make a living as an artist. However, as the realities of adulthood and other interests sat in, the term \"starving artist\" began to have more meaning, and Jack eventually took other jobs and degree programs that lead to a career as a teacher in Nevada.\r\n\r\nJack still occasionally drew portraits for people, and whenever he did, it triggered that childhood passion and desire to draw all the time. He formed Let\'s Draw People as a way to bring together others who have similar experiences, who have that wish of having the freedom to draw all day long as they so innocently did as kids. He formed Let\'s Draw People as a way to bring together portrait artists who want to share their knowledge and artwork, to help others learn, and to motivate each other to carve out more time for their passion for drawing, no matter how much life gets in the way.\r\n<h4>NOW, YOU GET STARTED!</h4>\r\n<a style=\"font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;\" title=\"Let\'s Draw People\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com\">Check back often</a><span style=\"font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;\"> to find new articles and videos that will help you to better understand how to draw people!

Noticing these characteristics and including them in your drawing will help you to create a closer, more accurate likeness. In this tutorial, we will use this reference photo to learn how to draw Justin Bieber. Justin is a very popular star, and his face is known all over the world. I will point out some key characteristics of Justin&#146;s facial features along the way that will help us get a likeness that is close to his. So here we go&#133; watch the video above, read the steps below, and try your hand at it too!\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_852\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"320\"]<a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Justin-Bieber-arrives.jpg\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-852     \" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Justin-Bieber-arrives.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\"></a> <strong> &copy; <a href=\"http://www.dreamstime.com/carrienelson1_info\">Carrienelson1</a> | <a href=\"http://www.dreamstime.com/\">Dreamstime.com</a></strong>[/caption]\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid and Guidelines</h3>\nMake a grid of 3 squares by 5 squares. As you follow along with me, try to draw as accurately as possible what you see in each square to keep things in proportion. Next, draw some basic guidelines for the face. Our reference photo is a recent picture of the Biebs, so since he is growing older, our &#147;oval&#148; shape will reflect a longer and more narrow face than when Justin was a younger child. Also, notice the lightly-drawn guidelines that will serve as rough placement for the center of the face, eyes, nose, and mouth.\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/01-bieber-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-727\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/01-bieber-grid.jpg\" alt=\"\" height=\"600\"></a></p>\n\n<h3>Step 2: Draw the Eyes</h3>\nNotice in the previous step I said &#147;rough placement&#148;. Guidelines are meant to give you general guidance, but you don&#146;t have to be tied to them. So, rather than drawing the eyes directly on the guideline, I drew them just below the line, with the eyebrows above the guideline. Justin has noticeable eyelashes, so I didn&#146;t leave those out of the drawing. In addition, there is a tiny bit of foreshortening present since Justin&#146;s head is slightly turned. Therefore, I decided to leave one eye looking a little smaller than the other.\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/02-bieber-eyes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-728\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/02-bieber-eyes.jpg\" alt=\"\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\n<h3>Step 3: Make Justin&#146;s Nose</h3>\nOur reference photo shows a nose with a rather short bridge and round tip. You can almost see the &#147;ball&#148; of cartilage at the bottom. These are distinguishing features to include when drawing Justin Bieber&#146;s nose. A not-so distinguishing feature (since it&#146;s common to just about everyone) is how the outer part of the nostril is practically in line with the inside corner of the eye.\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/03-bieber-nose.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-729\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/03-bieber-nose.jpg\" alt=\"\" height=\"600\"></a></p>\n\n<h3>Step 4: Draw His Mouth</h3>\nUse a combination of lines and shading to form some of the curves in Justin&#146;s lips. The front teeth that are visible in our photo look very similar in size. Take your time with the teeth. They can be tricky to draw but go a long way with forming a likeness. Also, draw some of the subtle lines outside the corners of Justin&#146;s mouth that form his smile and cheeks.\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/04-bieber-mouth.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-730\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/04-bieber-mouth.jpg\" alt=\"\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\n<h3>Step 5: Form the Ears and the Outline of the Face</h3>\nOnce again, because of foreshortening, one ear is clearly visible and the other is obstructed by Justin&#146;s face and barely noticeable. Just try to draw the outer part of the lobe that can be seen. Be sure to draw the earrings that Justin likes to sport too. Notice as well the characteristic lines that connect the cheeks to the chin.\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/05-bieber-ears.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-731\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/05-bieber-ears.jpg\" alt=\"\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\n<h3>Step 6: Draw Justin&#146;s Hair</h3>\nOkay, so far we are doing good, but it looks like we have a bald Biebs. What would a drawing of Justin Bieber be without all of that hair? He&#146;s got a lot of it that sits thick above the top of his skull. You are going to have to pay attention to how the hair is styled in different directions, and just &#147;go with the flow&#148;.&nbsp; Draw lines that go in the direction of the hair growth. Use the reference photo to assist you. You can see how he has a lot of strands curving upward from the hairline. Use combinations of dark against light as shown here to build volume. Draw a few hairs that are loose and hang away from the mass.\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/06-bieber-hair.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-732\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/06-bieber-hair.jpg\" alt=\"\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\n<h3>Step 7: Draw the Neck and Jacket</h3>\nThere&#146;s not too much to this part. We notice Justin wearing a t-shirt and jacket with a chain around his neck. We don&#146;t see the whole chain, since it hangs down out of our view. Do draw a bit of a shadow that Justin&#146;s chin casts on his neck.\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/07-bieber-neck.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-733\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/07-bieber-neck.jpg\" alt=\"\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\n<h3>Step 8: Erase and Add Final Details</h3>\nCarefully erase your guidelines. This includes your square gridlines and any facial guidelines you no longer want. A kneaded eraser is useful for this part, as it helps you maneuver around what you want to keep. Add in some final details. These could include a few moles unique to Justin&#146;s face, a few extra strands or highlights in the hair (again, great use for the kneaded eraser!), or just some other features you want to go back and better define. Add as much or as little shading as you want to make you satisfied with your final drawing.\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/08-bieber.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-734\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" title=\"how to draw Justin Bieber\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/08-bieber.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"455\" height=\"600\"></a></p>\nThere you have it, a few simple steps for how to draw Justin Bieber! Remember, even if your finished drawing doesn&#146;t look completely like Justin, including facial characteristics that are unique to him will help with the resemblance. And of course, the more detail and shading you include, the more realistic your drawing of Justin Bieber will look. There&#146;s no set rule as to how much detail to include. It all just depends on what level of realism you are trying to achieve!\n<script src=\"//assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js\"></script>','How to Draw Justin Bieber','','inherit','open','open','','165-autosave-v1','','','2014-06-05 05:27:26','2014-06-05 12:27:26','',165,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/165-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(726,2,'2013-08-05 19:15:30','2013-08-06 02:15:30','<center><iframe src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/ehYHsGCYSH0?rel=0\" height=\"360\" width=\"640\" frameborder=\"0\"></iframe></center>\r\nShoes can be quite tricky to draw, especially if you consider yourself a beginner. The good news is, there are a wide variety of shoes that exist for us to choose from. So I thought, what better way to begin learning how to draw shoes than to learn something simple? With that said, here is a lesson for drawing wedge high heel shoes. Here is a reference photo for us to draw. In case you are up for more of a challenge, the feet do come included!\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/dreamstime_xs_25047892.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-721\" alt=\"© Branislav Ostojic | Dreamstime.com\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/dreamstime_xs_25047892.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares to use as guidelines. The size isn’t important, but use a ruler to construct your squares properly. This is an optional step, but it can also be a helpful one if you are drawing along with me and want to make your feet and shoes look as close to mine as possible. Grids are really useful for proper placement of your lines.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/01p-drawing-wedge-high-heels-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-712\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"01p drawing wedge high heels grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/01p-drawing-wedge-high-heels-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 2: Draw the Basic Shapes</h3>\r\nIn this drawing, I am focusing on the two center grid squares. Lightly draw basic shapes for the legs and feet. Use long oval shapes for the legs. Notice how the lines overlap? Even though the right leg is in front, we can still see the outlines of the left leg. This is a good thing, because it helps us to properly place the features that are not obstructed. We will go back later to erase lines that should be hidden. Use wedge shapes for the feet and toes. Use smaller oval shapes or circular shapes for the heel and ankles.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/02-drawing-wedge-high-heels-shapes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-713\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"02 drawing wedge high heels shapes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/02-drawing-wedge-high-heels-shapes.jpg\" width=\"379\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 3: Shape the Shoes</h3>\r\nBegin making a wedge shape for the wedge shoes. Since these are wedge high heels that we are drawing, they should be taller in the back. Show a little bit of curvature as they come up to the front.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/03-drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-714\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"03 drawing wedge high heels shoes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/03-drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoes.jpg\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 4: Define the Legs and Feet</h3>\r\nUse the shapes to add more defining lines of detail to the legs and feet. Your shapes from earlier are to serve simply as guidelines; don’t feel like you have to draw over them exactly. Notice here that I decided to draw to the right of my guideline, so the curve from the calf muscle would look more slender and natural. Also notice that I didn’t trace those lines of the left leg that are hidden behind the right leg in the foreground. Add in a line or two for the ankle, and do your best to indicate the toes, using your wedge shapes to help you.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/04-drawing-wedge-high-heels-legs.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-715\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"04 drawing wedge high heels legs\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/04-drawing-wedge-high-heels-legs.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 5: Draw the Base of the Shoes</h3>\r\nDraw thin lines on the top and bottom of each shoe to represent the outer soles and insoles. There is a barely noticeable heel on the bottom of the shoe. Also, notice the space between the foot and the insole.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/05-drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoe-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-716\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"05 drawing wedge high heels shoe details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/05-drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoe-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 6: Add the Straps</h3>\r\nAdd the straps for the heel, toes, and ankles. You should draw the heel strap overlapping the insole a bit, and then erase the part the strap conceals. You can add a buckle and a few holes to the ankle strap.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/06-drawing-wedge-high-heels-straps.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-717\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"06 drawing wedge high heels straps\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/06-drawing-wedge-high-heels-straps.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 7: Plan Your Shading</h3>\r\nMake guidelines to help you place some shading. This way you can plan your light source, draw where the shadows should be, and make any changes needed before committing a lot of shading.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/07-drawing-wedge-high-heels-shade-lines.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-718\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"07 drawing wedge high heels shade lines\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/07-drawing-wedge-high-heels-shade-lines.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 8: Add Final Details</h3>\r\nFinish up shading and add final details. Add in shading by using your guidelines from the last step. Consider which areas need to be darker, like just under the foot where it meets the insole and where the front leg casts a shadow on the leg behind it. Also notice a little shading progression on the front part of the shoes to indicate the curves.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/08-drawing-wedge-high-heels-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-719\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"08 drawing wedge high heels details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/08-drawing-wedge-high-heels-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 9: Erase the Guidelines</h3>\r\nCarefully erase your guidelines. This includes your square gridlines, any shape guidelines you didn’t need (like under the calf), and any that should be hidden from view (like the left leg behind the right). You’ll have to work around the lines you want to keep.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/09-wedge-high-heels-finished.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-720\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/09-wedge-high-heels-finished.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\nAnd that is how you draw a pair of feet wearing wedge high heel shoes! Try practicing this with a different style of wedge shoe next time. This is also good practice for getting better at drawing feet, because you are drawing the shoes that conform to the basic shape of the foot and you are not drawing the feet in isolation. Feet and toes take time to learn…just keep practicing until you have a satisfying composition of shoes and feet!','How to Draw Feet Wearing Wedge High Heels','','inherit','open','open','','129-revision-v1','','','2013-08-05 19:15:30','2013-08-06 02:15:30','',129,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/129-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3600,2,'2017-07-13 08:36:34','2017-07-13 15:36:34','<strong>Lesson 8: Blending Tones</strong>\r\n\r\nThe Role of Blending in Realistic Drawing\r\n\r\nBlending, sometimes called smudging, means smoothing out the graphite tones in order to soften the edges of a transition between tone values and add significant realism to a drawing. Look at the two drawings of the bowling ball below; one is before blending and one is after. What differences do you notice? How does it affect the feeling and dimensionality of the final drawing?\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<em>vPic: still life bowling ball tone drawing*</em>\r\n\r\n<em>vPic: still life bowling ball completed blend drawing*</em>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nUsing Tortillions and Blending Stumps\r\n\r\nTortillions and blending stumps are the two main tools for shading. Tortillions are thin, rolled strips of paper shaped like a cone near the tip and are shorter and smaller around than stumps. The paper used to make tortillions is not as soft as the paper blending stumps are made from. Blending stumps often contain felt in the paper they are made from. You’ll primarily use tortillions to blend most of the fine details of your drawing. There are different methods for sharpening and cleaning them, but many people use an emery board or fine grit sandpaper.\r\n\r\n<em>Vpic: tortillions*</em>\r\n\r\nThe other major tool used in blending is called a stump. Blending stumps are used less often, but for larger areas of a drawing than tortillions. A stump has the same shape as a tortillion, but is longer and much thicker, hence the name, stump. It is made from a softer paper and it can’t reach into the same small areas of a drawing as a tortillion. Stumps are usually pointed on both ends. As with tortillions, you can sharpen a stump with sandpaper, but you will want them to remain much blunter than a tortillion.\r\n\r\n<em>Vpic: blending stumps*</em>\r\n\r\nBlending Direction\r\n\r\n<em>Vpics: one image for each point below*</em>\r\n\r\nArtists traditionally blend in dark areas first, working toward the lighter areas of a drawing. This allows the artist to gather unwanted graphite from the dark areas that can be used to work the lighter areas. You can even use it to add value and details. You can choose to blend lighter areas first if you are afraid of darkening a particular area with excess graphite on the tortillion.\r\n\r\nOver time, you’ll become more comfortable with your blending tools. Some artists clean their tools as needed while other keep a collection of them organized by the amount of graphite on them. You’ll eventually develop methods and habits best suited to your style.\r\n\r\nFollowing Contours\r\n\r\n<em>Vpics: one image for each point below*</em>\r\n\r\nIt’s important to follow the shape and contours of the object you are blending with a tortillion. Go along with the outline you’ve drawn. Going against the grain will detract from the realism of your finished work. Smooth over the outline of the object so it looks less harsh.\r\n\r\nThink back to the basic shapes you created in Lesson 7. The prism and the pyramid both have straight lines, while the cylinder and bowling ball are curved. When you are blending, go in the same direction as the edge you are closest to or the surface of the object you’re shading on.\r\n\r\nThink of shading a series of rolling hills verses a row of skyscrapers. You wouldn’t shade <em>or</em> blend in vertical strokes for the hills. And buildings should be blended in the direction they are built, usually in straight vertical or horizontal strokes.\r\n\r\nA good way to get started is to experiment with your blending tools. Make some patches of graphite of various values and then use your tortillions and stumps to blend out from the patches. Use the tortillion first to see how fine of a line you can pull from one of the patches. Try putting two patches close together and blending them. Don’t use the very tip of the tortillion or it will collapse back into itself. If that happens, use a pin to push it back out from the other end. Use the side of tip, instead. When you finish blending some of the patches, play around with the graphite on the tortillion, seeing how you can use it to add graphite to the paper. This is how you add some very light color to areas that need to be just a touch darker than white. Next try drawing a line, curved or straight, and adding shading that meet up with the line, but doesn’t cross it. Use your tortillion to soften the line against the shading, pulling some of the line and shading together. You can use this technique to give objects a softer edge.\r\n\r\nNext, try the blending stump. Use your pencil to shade a larger area of the paper – about 4” square – then use the stump to play around with blending it both inside and out of its boundaries. Shade another patch close to the first one, either lighter or darker, and try blending those together. Then use it to add graphite back to a white portion of the paper. Next, do the same experiment as you did with the tortillion. Draw another line and put some shading with it, then use the blending stump to soften the transition between the two. Sometimes you will use both the tortillion and the stump in very close proximity to one another in a drawing, depending on the size of the area you are blending.\r\n\r\nNow that you’ve had a chance to try out your blending tools, take a couple of minutes to clean them. Use an emery board or fine grit sand paper and gently file with the grain. Remove as much of the graphite as you can and use the sander to gently restore the original shape.\r\n\r\nAs you progress, you may find there are other tools you like to use for blending, cleaning and shaping, but these are excellent ones for starting out.

The catch is that you\'ll have to do the same for them.</em></strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Overview</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Conscious Growth Club (CGC) is a one-year online group coaching program and social support system for conscious, growth-oriented people. It includes online video courses on a variety of personal growth topics, live video coaching calls with Q&amp;A, and a private discussion group where members can connect online.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">The purpose of CGC is to help you make faster progress on your path of personal growth. The core focus is to work together to transform members\' lives for the better – and to do this across a wide spectrum of areas, including work, relationships, income generation, health, productivity, skill building, and more.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Since we\'ll have a whole year together, there isn\'t one singular transformation this program will target. Rather we\'ll focus on creating the conditions that stimulate and support many types of transformation – with structured content, direct coaching, and strong community interaction.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Imagine having a growth-oriented community helping you achieve your goals and implement your ideas, checking in to see how you\'re doing, offering help, and giving you compassionate and encouraging feedback at each step along the way.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Core Transformations</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Here are the most requested core transformations that we\'ll work on together throughout the year:</span>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Replacing distraction with <strong>focus</strong></span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Turning confusion into <strong>clarity</strong></span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Adopting the <strong>habits</strong>of your best self</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Shifting from scarcity to <strong>abundance</strong></span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Enjoying <strong>fulfilling work</strong></span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Building a <strong>strong character</strong></span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Finding a tribe of smart, conscious <strong>friends</strong></span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Moving from stressed/numb to <strong>centered</strong></span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Replacing doubt with <strong>trust</strong></span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Building and honing valuable <strong>skills</strong></span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Waking up your <strong>spirit</strong></span></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Who Is

friends that you can bond with.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You want to enjoy positive and supportive relationships with people who genuinely care about you (not just in CGC but in the rest of your life too).</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You\'re willing to give and receive honest feedback, while you maintain the freedom and autonomy to decide how to use the feedback you receive.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You\'re willing to share some of your successes and your mistakes during the year, so others can learn from you, celebrate with you, and help you learn and improve.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You seek or have already found a sense of purpose in your life.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span

stronger in your character and more capable as a human being.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You want your social life to be filled with conscious, growth-oriented, abundance-minded friends – friends who will keep you from settling.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You want to see this group succeed, and you believe that it has the potential to do a lot of good for its members and for those whose lives they touch.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You want to interact with me more closely, including getting my personal feedback and advice from time to time.</span></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">If you can see yourself in most, if not all, of the items above, CGC is a match for you.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">I\'d say that most current CGC members fit at least one of these categories:</span>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">People who have issues with procrastination, drifting, or lack of focus and want more <strong>action and accountability</strong>to get out of complacency and stretch themselves – They want the program to have a good backbone of structure and an emphasis on disciplined action.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">People who want more <strong>growth-oriented friends</strong>and a stronger social circle – They crave a more empowering social life with people they like and respect, often seeing that as the key ingredient that will uplift and inspire them.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">People who want to make a difference in the world and create <strong>positive ripples</strong>– These people are especially purpose-driven and want to be inspired by other purpose-driven people, so we can all change the world for the better.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">People who are already very growth-oriented and ambitious and want to <strong>achieve bigger goals</strong>– They want to feel stimulated by equally ambitious people and are eager to assimilate new ideas, overcome challenges, and make faster progress.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">People who want <strong>direct advice</strong>from me personally – Some have been reading my blog for years and feel a strong personal connection to me because of that relationship, so for them it\'s important to be able to talk to me directly on the coaching calls and/or interact with me in the discussion group.</span></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">If you\'ve been reading my blog for a while, you\'re not a normal person. I mean that as a compliment. What you may not realize is that there are a lot of other people out there who think the way you do. The people who read my blog tend to have a lot in common with each other, much more than you\'d expect. If you\'ve never connected with a group of people who are a lot like you, you\'re in for a real treat in CGC.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Program Elements</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Video Courses</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">We\'ll have training modules in a membership area on a variety of personal growth topics, developed and released throughout the year. Each module will include video, audio, and text transcripts with the same material, so you can digest the lessons in whichever format you prefer. You can stream the video and audio directly to your favorite device, or you can download and save the content for later.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">What\'s special about CGC is that the course materials are specifically designed for the benefit of our members. So this gets pretty close to having courses that are designed just for you.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Here are some course ideas that Early Access members have suggested thus far:</span>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Passive income</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Creating value online</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Self-discipline</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Personal growth accelerators (Truth, Love, Power)</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Intelligent goal setting and prioritization</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Achieving multiple goals across different areas of life</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Achieving stretch goals</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Taking action consistently (especially in the face of adversity)</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Building and applying courage</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Overcoming limiting beliefs and negative mental scripts</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Being more playful with life and personal growth</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Health detox / mental health</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Going vegan</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Raw foods</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Overcoming perfectionism</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Creating and living your story</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Subjective reality</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Passionately applying your talents</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Lifestyle design</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Changing your attitude / perspective (gratitude, abundance, etc)</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Habit change</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Life balance (especially learning vs. applying knowledge and skills)</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Uncovering your blind spots</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Manifesting and abundance</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Attracting compatible relationship partners</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Creating and enjoying deep relationships</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Productivity, energy, and focus</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Aligning income streams with your purpose, character, and lifestyle desires</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Building mental toughness / strength</span></li>\r\n</ul>\r\nassignments\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><b>Full-Length Video Tutorials</b></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">We\'ll have live 90-minute group coaching calls where you can ask questions, get feedback on ideas, and get help solving problems. These calls will be held multiple times per month (about 40-45 calls during the year).</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">These calls will be in streaming video format, just like a webinar. You can access the calls on whichever device you like. You\'ll be able to see me via my webcam, and I can also do screen sharing as needed for demonstrations.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">On these calls you can talk about solving problems, figuring out decisions, or dealing with challenges in your life.You can also ask for extra emotional support when you need it. Any area of life you want help with is fair game.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">We can also bring in guest experts for extra coaching, interviews, and live Q&amp;A. I have many friends who are authors, trainers, speakers, coaches, and entrepreneurs, and I\'m sure many of them would be happy to contribute. Some of them also owe me favors. ?</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Recordings</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">All coaching calls will be recorded and available for streaming or download in video and audio formats. So it\'s okay if you miss some or all of the live calls because you\'ll be able to access the recordings whenever you want.</span>\r\n\r\nEach recorded video will be available for streaming or download. access the recordings whenever you want\r\n\r\nAs a member of the Let\'s Draw People Club, you will have access to a growing collection of full-length video tutorials. Videos are organized by series, and each series focuses on one reference photograph as it\'s subject. Once per week, I will release a new recording of\r\n\r\nstep-by-step every pencil stroke thorough explanations of what i\'m doing and why i\'m doing it\r\n\r\naverage duration of each video is approximately 2 hours\r\n\r\ndesigned for you to draw right along with me or to use as a resource when you need specific help drawing a particular feature or using a certain technique\r\n\r\ndraw along with me at your own pace. pause, back up, or skip ahead when you need to. if you watch and draw a completed 6-week series, you get to decide if you want to complete the drawing in 6 weeks, 12 weeks, or 1 week.\r\n\r\nfull access to downloadable, high-resolution reference photographs, grids I use for each series, and even reference photos with grids already in place. for each drawing series that uses the grid method, I also teach you my step-by-step method for setting up the grid for that drawing, so you will gain the knowledge to apply the same techniques to any future reference photograph and drawing you may choose to do on your own\r\n\r\neach video is accompanied with a sequenced list of what is discussed or demonstrated, along with what time the topic starts in the video. furthermore, you can click on the time and go straight to that part of the video to find precisely the help you need\r\n\r\nonce one series is complete, the next video begins a new series with a new reference photograph\r\n\r\ncurrently in the Full-Length Video Tutorials area of the membership, there are 3 complete series and 16 high-definition videos totaling over 32 hours of instruction and demonstration!\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Members-only Discussion Forums</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You\'ll have access to our private discussion forums where you can communicate freely with the other CGC members as much as you desire.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">The forums are where CGC members connect, collaborate, share ideas, give feedback, help hold each other accountable, and encourage the heck out of each other. You\'ll find it to be an immensely positive and supportive environment with lots of people you can turn to for help navigating your personal growth challenges.</span>\r\n\r\nhelp hold each other accountable with course assignments, drawings from course Draw-with-Me lessons, drawings from Full-Length Video Tutorial video series\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Our forums run Discourse, which is very modern forum software that\'s fast to learn, uncluttered, and easy to use. Our forums are ad-free as well.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">The CGC forums are already active with dozens of Early Access members who\'ve posted thousands of messages so far, so there\'s a vibrant community for you to connect with right away.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Newsletter</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">CGC includes a weekly email newsletter to share updates, highlights, and reminders. You\'ll also be notified when new course modules are added.</span>\r\n\r\nnotification of new full-length videos, new drawing courses, winners for the Gallery Giveaways\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Deep Dives and Challenges</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Throughout the year we\'ll do some deep dives together such as 30-day challenges to build new habits, gain skills, or complete creative projects.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Each deep dive is an invitation for members who want to work on a certain type of challenge together, supporting each other as we go along. You can do them with the group, you can do them on your own later by using the recordings, or you can decline them if they don\'t fit your schedule or interests.</span>\r\n\r\nGallery Giveaways\r\n\r\nIncentives to help motivate and create engagement.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Action and Accountability</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">In the CGC forums we have a Progress &amp; Accountability category where members share progress logs for their goals and invite more accountability for taking action on their goals and projects. I maintain a progress log there as well, sharing updates on CGC\'s continued development.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You can also use this category to find accountability partners for your goals, so you don\'t have to go it alone.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Self Pacing</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">For all aspects of CGC, you go at your own pacing. Nothing is mandatory.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You can work through the training modules in whichever order you like, at any pace you desire. You can attend the coaching calls live, or you can listen to the recordings later. You can use the discussion group as much or as little as you like. All of the challenges are optional. You can do them with us, on your own later, or not at all.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">CGC is your personal growth playground. It will fit your schedule because it\'s designed to be flexible. You can access it whenever you want, as much as you want. You can work according to your own cycles and rhythms. If you like going at a steady pace throughout the year, great. If you prefer bursting into activity like a maniac for a few weeks and then going at a slower pace while you recharge, also great. You can take breaks whenever you want. This is a key advantage of a one-year program. There is no forced pacing.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You\'re free to choose which specific transformations you want to focus on at any given time. Do you want to work towards leaving your job and starting an online business? Would you like to add new income streams? Do you want to improve your health? Would you like to enrich your social life? Are you facing a potential separation or divorce that needs to be resolved? We\'ll help you set priorities for what you want to improve during our year together.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">If you want to be pushed, held accountable, and nudged out of your complacency, we\'ll help you get your ass in gear. If you need to be nurtured, accepted, and understood, we\'ll shower you with unconditional love. If you need to heal, we\'ll help you heal.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">A major goal of CGC is to help you get good at holistic transformation, so you can continue creating the life you desire, regardless of the future challenges you may face.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Pricing</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Your investment for a full year of membership in Conscious Growth Club is $1997.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">You can pay for your membership up front with a single payment, or you can choose a payment plan. The payment plan is 8 payments of $297, spaced a month apart. So that\'s 1 payment of $297 when you sign up and then 7 more monthly payments of $297 after that. Whether you opt for the one-pay or the payment plan, it\'s still a one-year membership.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">It\'s important for us to create a strong feeling of investment from the members, so everyone in the group has some real <em>skin in the game</em>. As with any type of coaching or club, active participation means results.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Your CGC membership will last for a whole year, so you\'ll have many opportunities and lots of time to extract good value for your investment.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">I can tell you from experience that when you join this group, you\'re going to grow in many ways that you would not have predicted in advance. Some of your expected improvements will surely happen too, but be prepared for surprises. When we expose ourselves to such intense transformational energy, it changes us in ways we wouldn\'t even have thought to ask for. I get changed by this energy too.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Money-Back Guarantee</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">If you join CGC and decide for whatever reason that the group isn\'t a match for you, just request a refund within the first 30 days of your membership, and we\'ll refund your money.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Early Access – Now Open</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">I expect to do the official launch of CGC in Summer 2017. However, enthusiasm about CGC has been so high that many people have inquired about the possibility of joining sooner, even while the program is still in development, so I\'ve added an Early Access option that has already proven very popular, with dozens of people joining in just the first week and more still signing up each day.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Here\'s how CGC Early Access works:</span>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>No extra cost</strong>- If you want Early Access to CGC, you still pay the same price when you join, but your one-year membership doesn\'t start counting down until we do the official launch in the summer. So the whole Early Access period is bonus time added to the front of your membership for no extra cost. Hence the sooner you join, the more free bonus time you get.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Access to the forums</strong>- Our discussion forums are already up and running with dozens of active Early Access members, so you\'ll get access to the forums when you sign up.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Earliest possible access to CGC courses</strong>- As we develop the CGC courses, you\'ll be able to access each piece as soon as it\'s available.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Extra coaching calls</strong>- As an Early Access member, you\'ll be able to participate in extra coaching calls that we host during the Early Access period.</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Extended money-back guarantee</strong>- For Early Access members, I\'m extending the money-back guarantee from the time of sign-up until the end of the official launch window, plus another 30 days. That way you\'re still getting the same 30-day guarantee as anyone else who enrolls during the official launch, and your guarantee spans the entire Early Access period too.</span></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Join Conscious Growth Club – Early Access</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">If you wish to join Conscious Growth Club during the Early Access period and get started right away, you can sign up right here:</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Pay in Full</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">$1997</span>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">One payment of $1997 – Pay in full today, and save $379 compared to the payment plan</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Membership:</strong>One full year of CGC membership</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Early Access Bonus:</strong>Early Access period added to the beginning for free</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Courses:</strong>Members-only video training courses on a variety of personal growth topics (with audio and text formats available too)</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Coaching:</strong>90-minute video coaching calls 3-4 times per month (with recordings posted after the calls)</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Forums:</strong>Private discussion group to connect with Steve and other CGC members for support, accountability, and friendship</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Deep Dives:</strong>Opportunities to participate in frequent deep dives such as 30-day trials to build new habits, gain skills, and complete creative projects</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Newsletter:</strong>Weekly members-only newsletter to share updates, highlights, and reminders</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Guarantee:</strong>100% money-back guarantee during the entire early access period + 30 more days</span></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a href=\"https://www.stevepavlina.com/join/conscious-growth-club/\">Join now – Pay in Full</a></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong> </strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Payment Plan</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">8 payments of $297</span>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">One payment of $297 today, and then 7 more monthly payments of $297</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Membership:</strong>One full year of CGC membership</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Early Access Bonus:</strong>Early Access period added to the beginning for free</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Courses:</strong>Members-only video training courses on a variety of personal growth topics (with audio and text formats available too)</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Coaching:</strong>90-minute video coaching calls 3-4 times per month (with recordings posted after the calls)</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Forums:</strong>Private discussion group to connect with Steve and other CGC members for support, accountability, and friendship</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Deep Dives:</strong>Opportunities to participate in frequent deep dives such as 30-day trials to build new habits, gain skills, and complete creative projects</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Newsletter:</strong>Weekly members-only newsletter to share updates, highlights, and reminders</span></li>\r\n 	<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Guarantee:</strong>100% money-back guarantee during the entire early access period + 30 more days</span></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a href=\"https://www.stevepavlina.com/join/conscious-growth-club-payment-plan/\">Join now – Payment Plan</a></span>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Need Help?</span></h2>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">If you have any questions about Conscious Growth Club or if you need help joining, please send a message through the <a href=\"https://www.stevepavlina.com/contact/\">contact form</a>.</span>','Let\'s Draw People Club','','private','closed','closed','','club','','','2017-08-07 11:17:56','2017-08-07 18:17:56','',0,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/?page_id=3518',0,'page','',0),(3512,2,'2017-05-19 05:50:46','2017-05-19 12:50:46','<script type=\"text/javascript\">\r\nvar playerhost = ((\"https:\" == document.location.protocol) ?

At <a title=\"Let\'s Draw People\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com\">Let\'s Draw People</a>, it is our mission to awaken the inner artist in everyday people (including you!)...by drawing people. We believe that no matter which path in life you followed, you can rediscover and reignite that childhood passion of drawing you had when you were scribbling smiley faces and sketching stick figures. The reason we do what we do is to help other \"aspiring\" portrait artists who wish to improve their skills when it comes to drawing people.\r\n<h4>OUR GOAL</h4>\r\nOur goal is to build a community of people from all walks of life who commit to spending more time on what they have always enjoyed doing...drawing people! Our aim is for people who don\'t draw everyday to realize their true hidden talents and potential, to begin creating realistic pencil portraits that will amaze themselves and those they know and love.\r\n<h4>HOW WE DO IT</h4>\r\nMaybe you wish to learn how to draw something more advanced than a stick person. You wanted to learn, but life, jobs, and family got in the way and now your kids can draw people better than you. Or, maybe you already have some artistic talent, but you always struggle when it comes to drawing people. You often say, \"Does her face look right to you?\" or \"I can\'t keep from drawing his hand crooked.\"\r\n\r\nWhether you are just starting to draw all over again or if you have some experience, Let\'s Draw People lets you take your skills as an aspiring portrait artist to the next level. Here you will find tips and techniques to help you draw the human face and form in a variety of styles. We have informative articles, step-by-step tutorials and pictures, and how-to videos by a selection of artists that can accommodate your needs and abilities. As your skills develop, you may be able to eventually share your work in a <a title=\"Portrait Galleries\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/portrait-galleries/\">gallery</a> on this site to have your artwork recognized and appreciated by our followers. Better yet, you may be able to become a <a title=\"Draw for Us\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/draw-for-us/\">contributing artist and author</a> for us!\r\n<h4>HOW WE GOT STARTED</h4>\r\nLet\'s Draw People was founded by Jack Pearce, a guy who had a love for drawing ever since he was 3 years old and never really grew out of it. Although he loved drawing everything under the sun, Jack always had a special fascination with drawing people. The more Jack\'s skills developed, the more he wanted to focus on drawing people, especially realistic portraits in pencil (his favorite medium). Growing up, Jack always believed he would make a living as an artist. However, as the realities of adulthood and other interests sat in, the term \"starving artist\" began to have more meaning, and Jack eventually took other jobs and degree programs that lead to a career as a teacher in Nevada.\r\n\r\nJack still occasionally drew portraits for people, and whenever he did, it triggered that childhood passion and desire to draw all the time. He formed Let\'s Draw People as a way to bring together others who have similar experiences, who have that wish of having the freedom to draw all day long as they so innocently did as kids. He formed Let\'s Draw People as a way to bring together portrait artists who want to share their knowledge and artwork, to help others learn, and to motivate each other to carve out more time for their passion for drawing, no matter how much life gets in the way.\r\n<h4>NOW, YOU GET STARTED!</h4>\r\n<a style=\"font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;\" title=\"Let\'s Draw People\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com\">Check back often</a><span style=\"font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;\"> to find new articles and videos that will help you to better understand how to draw people!

Maybe you just draw stick people. Maybe you think that you &#147;can&#146;t&#148; draw at all.\r\n\r\nBy the way, if the last statement applies to you, stop thinking that way right now and start thinking you &#147;CAN&#148;!\r\n\r\nAnyway, regardless of what you can already do, there are some things to consider when learning how to draw people. Thinking about these things and learning them will be sure to help you.\r\n<h2>Types of People Drawing</h2>\r\nFirst of all, people are rendered in different types of drawings. You should put some thought into which one of these you prefer and put the effort into learning that particular type of drawing.\r\n<h3>Cartoon People</h3>\r\nYou may want to learn how to draw cartoon people. This is a great way to start out and practice if you are a beginner. More importantly, it&#146;s a great way to have fun with drawing people!\r\n\r\nYou can really let yourself loose and not stress about something not &#147;looking&#148; right. You can get creative and make up your own characters.\r\n\r\nI had a wild imagination as a child and I did this all the time, creating comic book characters and fictional cartoon TV shows. On that note, as you practice and build your confidence, you may find yourself wanting to draw people from popular cartoons on TV.\r\n<h3>Caricatures</h3>\r\nHave you ever seen that artist on the sidewalk, drawing a happy couple who is posing for him, undisturbed at the onlookers walking by? If you were one of those onlookers and saw the drawing, you may have seen a &#147;cartoon&#148; with an unmistakable resemblance to the couple.\r\n\r\nYou were looking at a caricature drawing. This may be enough to motivate you to learn how to draw caricatures. These can be a lot of fun but at the same time a little challenging. Even though you are drawing what appears to be a cartoon with exaggerated features, you have to take great care to still capture an accurate likeness.\r\n\r\nYou have probably seen caricatures of famous celebrities and politicians on TV and in the newspaper. If you want to learn how to draw caricatures, trying to do so with public figures can be excellent practice.\r\n<h3>Realistic People</h3>\r\n<a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nirma.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-73\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" title=\"nirma\" alt=\"\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nirma-221x300.jpg\" width=\"221\" height=\"300\"></a>Some artists like to make detailed, realistic drawings of people. They want their drawings to look as close as possible to someone who is believable and real. These are my personal favorite!\r\n\r\nThere are two main ways that I like to classify realistic drawings of people: portrait drawings and character studies.\r\n\r\nA portrait drawing is a drawing of a person or people who are posing and looking directly back at you. A character study is a drawing of a person or people who are going about their daily lives, each exhibiting a particular mood or personality for us to assess.\r\n\r\nOne great way to learn how to draw people realistically is to practice on family members, friends, and <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/celebrities/\">celebrities</a>. The important thing about realistic drawing is attention to detail and capturing enough realism to make the person you are drawing easy for others to recognize.\r\n<h2>Drawing Styles</h2>\r\nWhether it be ability level or personal preference, artists create their work using different styles. You may want to experiment with these and pick one as your primary style, or you may wish to openly practice and explore multiple styles as you see fit, not limiting yourself to just one.\r\n<ul><li>Line drawing -&nbsp;This is a very basic drawing with just a simple outline of the major shapes of the person. There is usually little detail in a line drawing.</li>\r\n	<li>Sketch drawing - This can be simple or a little more complex. I really enjoy sketching people! It involves having a very loose wrist and not being constrained with the pressure of making mistakes, often keeping beginning guidelines in the final product. Sketches sometimes include tones as well as lines.</li>\r\n	<li>Detailed drawing -&nbsp;This can be (what started out as) a simple line drawing with a lot more detail added. It can also be a combination of a line and sketch drawing. The bottom line is lots of details.</li>\r\n	<li>Realistic drawing - A detailed drawing of a person (as described above) can still look realistic. But for the purposes of this description, I&#146;m talking about taking things to the next level. This usually means blended shading and the tiniest of details that you&#146;d never find on a basic drawing.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nRemember, you are the artist! There is no &#147;wrong way&#148; to express yourself, so have fun experimenting with these styles!\r\n<h2>What You Need to Learn</h2>\r\nRegardless of the type of &#147;people drawing&#148; you most want to pursue or your personal drawing style, there are some basic fundamentals you will have to learn.\r\n\r\nOne thing you will need to grasp a basic understanding of is proportion. There are certain ways we size different body parts and different facial features, and there are methods we use to determine how much they should be spaced apart. This is most important in realistic drawing, but having knowledge of proportions is not totally useless with cartoons and caricatures.\r\n\r\nThere is so much to learn about drawing faces. The human face has so many unique and distinguishing <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/features/\">features</a>: eyes, nose, mouth, ears, hair. Each of these features has its own characteristics that we need to consider. For example, the eye consists of the pupil, iris, eyelids, and eyebrow, just to name a few.\r\n\r\nThese facial features work together in interesting ways to form a variety of expressions. So in order to draw people, you have to form the facial features in a way that conveys emotions such as happiness, sadness, anger, excitement, and so on.\r\n\r\nBut drawing people is not limited to just drawing the face. You also need to learn how to draw hands, which are always doing and helping people express themselves. <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/clothes/\">Clothes</a>, of course, are important as well. Maybe you want to draw someone in a recognizable uniform, such as a nurse or a police officer.\r\n<h2>What&#146;s the First Step?</h2>\r\nThis just touches the surface of what is involved in drawing people. I recommend reading through this article again and deciding which aspects of drawing people you wish to improve.\r\n\r\nLearn all you can by reading other related articles, studying artwork, and watching how other artists draw the parts that are tricky for you. Then&#133;\r\n\r\n<strong>PRACTICE!! PRACTICE!! PRACTICE!!</strong>\r\n\r\nDraw along with them. Do as they do. Then apply the skills you have learned to independently draw another person, using your own style and creativity.\r\n\r\nPractice drawing people you know. Draw from photos, pictures from magazines or the Internet. Draw from other drawings. Draw from your head, using the prior knowledge you have learned about how to draw a person.\r\n\r\nThe main thing is to keep practicing and don&#146;t get discouraged! If you are not happy with your results, go back and learn from another artist again before practicing some more.\r\n\r\nIt is my hope that I can be one of those artists you can learn from. I hope you find the information, art, and videos throughout this website useful, and I hope you will keep me in mind as a resource to return to whenever you need additional help with drawing people!\r\n\r\nGood luck and happy drawing!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Let\'s See How to Draw People','','inherit','open','open','','66-revision-v1','','','2013-06-25 21:02:47','2013-06-26 04:02:47','',66,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/66-revision-33/',0,'revision','',0),(614,2,'2013-07-01 14:46:22','2013-07-01 21:46:22','[gallery link=\"file\" ids=\"73,74,342\"]','Portrait Gallery','','inherit','open','open','','489-revision-v1','','','2013-07-01 14:46:22','2013-07-01 21:46:22','',489,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/489-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(615,2,'2013-07-10 21:22:28','2013-07-11 04:22:28','<a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/030596.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-74\" alt=\"030596\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/030596-232x300.jpg\" width=\"232\" height=\"300\"></a>Maybe you can already draw people okay, but you want to improve your skills.

If you are not happy with your results, go back and learn from another artist again before practicing some more.\r\n\r\nIt is my hope that I can be one of those artists you can learn from. I hope you find the information, art, and videos throughout this website useful, and I hope you will keep me in mind as a resource to return to whenever you need additional help with drawing people!\r\n\r\nGood luck and happy drawing!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Let\'s See How to Draw People','','inherit','open','open','','66-revision-v1','','','2013-07-10 21:22:28','2013-07-11 04:22:28','',66,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/66-revision-34/',0,'revision','',0),(616,2,'2013-07-10 21:34:04','2013-07-11 04:34:04','<a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/030596.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-74\" alt=\"030596\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/030596-232x300.jpg\" width=\"232\" height=\"300\"></a>Maybe you can already draw people okay, but you want to improve your skills. Maybe you just draw stick people. Maybe you think that you &#147;can&#146;t&#148; draw at all.\r\n\r\nBy the way, if the last statement applies to you, stop thinking that way right now and start thinking you &#147;CAN&#148;!\r\n\r\nAnyway, regardless of what you can already do, there are some things to consider when learning how to draw people. Thinking about these things and learning them will be sure to help you.\r\n<h2>Types of People Drawing</h2>\r\nFirst of all, people are rendered in different types of drawings. You should put some thought into which one of these you prefer and put the effort into learning that particular type of drawing.\r\n<h3>Cartoon People</h3>\r\nYou may want to learn how to draw cartoon people. This is a great way to start out and practice if you are a beginner. More importantly, it&#146;s a great way to have fun with drawing people!\r\n\r\nYou can really let yourself loose and not stress about something not &#147;looking&#148; right. You can get creative and make up your own characters.\r\n\r\nI had a wild imagination as a child and I did this all the time, creating comic book characters and fictional cartoon TV shows. On that note, as you practice and build your confidence, you may find yourself wanting to draw people from popular cartoons on TV.\r\n<h3>Caricatures</h3>\r\nHave you ever seen that artist on the sidewalk, drawing a happy couple who is posing for him, undisturbed at the onlookers walking by? If you were one of those onlookers and saw the drawing, you may have seen a &#147;cartoon&#148; with an unmistakable resemblance to the couple.\r\n\r\nYou were looking at a caricature drawing. This may be enough to motivate you to learn how to draw caricatures. These can be a lot of fun but at the same time a little challenging. Even though you are drawing what appears to be a cartoon with exaggerated features, you have to take great care to still capture an accurate likeness.\r\n\r\nYou have probably seen caricatures of famous celebrities and politicians on TV and in the newspaper. If you want to learn how to draw caricatures, trying to do so with public figures can be excellent practice.\r\n<h3>Realistic People</h3>\r\n<a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nirma.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-73\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" title=\"nirma\" alt=\"\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nirma-221x300.jpg\" width=\"221\" height=\"300\"></a>Some artists like to make detailed, realistic drawings of people. They want their drawings to look as close as possible to someone who is believable and real. These are my personal favorite!\r\n\r\nThere are two main ways that I like to classify realistic drawings of people: portrait drawings and character studies.\r\n\r\nA portrait drawing is a drawing of a person or people who are posing and looking directly back at you. A character study is a drawing of a person or people who are going about their daily lives, each exhibiting a particular mood or personality for us to assess.\r\n\r\nOne great way to learn how to draw people realistically is to practice on family members, friends, and <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/celebrities/\">celebrities</a>. The important thing about realistic drawing is attention to detail and capturing enough realism to make the person you are drawing easy for others to recognize.\r\n<h2>Drawing Styles</h2>\r\nWhether it be ability level or personal preference, artists create their work using different styles. You may want to experiment with these and pick one as your primary style, or you may wish to openly practice and explore multiple styles as you see fit, not limiting yourself to just one.\r\n<ul><li>Line drawing -&nbsp;This is a very basic drawing with just a simple outline of the major shapes of the person. There is usually little detail in a line drawing.</li>\r\n	<li>Sketch drawing - This can be simple or a little more complex. I really enjoy sketching people! It involves having a very loose wrist and not being constrained with the pressure of making mistakes, often keeping beginning guidelines in the final product. Sketches sometimes include tones as well as lines.</li>\r\n	<li>Detailed drawing -&nbsp;This can be (what started out as) a simple line drawing with a lot more detail added. It can also be a combination of a line and sketch drawing. The bottom line is lots of details.</li>\r\n	<li>Realistic drawing - A detailed drawing of a person (as described above) can still look realistic. But for the purposes of this description, I&#146;m talking about taking things to the next level. This usually means blended shading and the tiniest of details that you&#146;d never find on a basic drawing.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nRemember, you are the artist! There is no &#147;wrong way&#148; to express yourself, so have fun experimenting with these styles!\r\n<h2>What You Need to Learn</h2>\r\nRegardless of the type of &#147;people drawing&#148; you most want to pursue or your personal drawing style, there are some basic fundamentals you will have to learn.\r\n\r\nOne thing you will need to grasp a basic understanding of is proportion. There are certain ways we size different body parts and different facial features, and there are methods we use to determine how much they should be spaced apart. This is most important in realistic drawing, but having knowledge of proportions is not totally useless with cartoons and caricatures.\r\n\r\nThere is so much to learn about drawing faces. The human face has so many unique and distinguishing <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/features/\">features</a>: eyes, nose, mouth, ears, hair. Each of these features has its own characteristics that we need to consider. For example, the eye consists of the pupil, iris, eyelids, and eyebrow, just to name a few.\r\n\r\nThese facial features work together in interesting ways to form a variety of expressions. So in order to draw people, you have to form the facial features in a way that conveys emotions such as happiness, sadness, anger, excitement, and so on.\r\n\r\nBut drawing people is not limited to just drawing the face. You also need to learn how to draw hands, which are always doing and helping people express themselves. <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/clothes/\">Clothes</a>, of course, are important as well. Maybe you want to draw someone in a recognizable uniform, such as a nurse or a police officer.\r\n<h2>What&#146;s the First Step?</h2>\r\nThis just touches the surface of what is involved in drawing people. I recommend reading through this article again and deciding which aspects of drawing people you wish to improve.\r\n\r\nLearn all you can by reading other related articles, studying artwork, and watching how other artists draw the parts that are tricky for you. Then&#133;\r\n\r\n<strong>PRACTICE!! PRACTICE!! PRACTICE!!</strong>\r\n\r\nDraw along with them. Do as they do. Then apply the skills you have learned to independently draw another person, using your own style and creativity.\r\n\r\nPractice drawing people you know. Draw from photos, pictures from magazines or the Internet. Draw from other drawings. Draw from your head, using the prior knowledge you have learned about how to draw a person.\r\n\r\nThe main thing is to keep practicing and don&#146;t get discouraged! If you are not happy with your results, go back and learn from another artist again before practicing some more.\r\n\r\nIt is my hope that I can be one of those artists you can learn from. I hope you find the information, art, and videos throughout this website useful, and I hope you will keep me in mind as a resource to return to whenever you need additional help with drawing people!\r\n\r\nGood luck and happy drawing!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Let\'s See How to Draw People','','inherit','open','open','','66-revision-v1','','','2013-07-10 21:34:04','2013-07-11 04:34:04','',66,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/66-revision-35/',0,'revision','',0),(618,2,'2013-07-03 13:37:24','2013-07-03 20:37:24','LetsDrawPeople.com is owned and operated by Keen Milestones.\r\n\r\n<address>Keen Milestones</address><address>3053 West Craig Road</address><address>Suite E # 202</address><address>North Las Vegas, NV 89032</address><address>editor@letsdrawpeople.com</address>We would love to hear from you!

The central focus will be on her eyes and how to draw them. Hopefully after giving this a try, you will learn to include all of the little details that bring the eyes to life. So refer to the reference photo below, as well as my step-by-step drawings, and let’s draw some eyes!\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-343\" title=\"© Pzaxe | Dreamstime.com\" alt=\"http://www.dreamstime.com/-image16063419\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares across and 3 squares down. They can be any size you choose. Just make sure to use a ruler and make perfect squares if you are hoping for a more accurate drawing of the photograph. If you are good at sketching lines and can make boxes approximately the same size, that will work too for this drawing (since we are not trying to capture a likeness).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-288\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"01p bride eyes grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 2: Outline of the Eyes</h3>\r\nOnce again, if you are using your grid for accuracy, pay close attention to placement. For example, the corner of the bride’s left eye (right side of the drawing) is approximately at the imaginary center line of its grid box (lined up with the arrow). Also, notice how the widths of both eyes are the same, and there is about one eye-width between the two eyes. This is a standard rule of thumb for drawing eyes looking directly at you, no matter who you are drawing! You can also include the tear ducts at this point.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-290\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"02p bride eyes outline\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 3: Upper Eyelids</h3>\r\nDraw a thin line above each eye’s outline to represent the eyelids. Draw lines from the outer corners that will lead to the brows. Draw lines from the inner corners to the upper bridge of the nose.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-294\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"03p bride eyes upper lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 4: Irises and Pupils</h3>\r\nUsing your grid and guidelines to help you, lightly sketch circles for the irises and pupils. If necessary, try a few times until you get satisfactory size and placement. Then, trace over them as carefully as you can to make them as round as possible. I like to use a <a title=\"Pickett Template 1204-i Circle Master\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/pickett-template-1204-i-circle-master/\">circle template</a> to make this tracing easier and more accurate. Remember, too, to make smaller circles serving as highlights (or catchlights).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-336\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"04p bride eyes irises and pupils\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 5: Lower Eyelids</h3>\r\nRepeat the same process as you did for the upper eyelids to make the lower lids. Draw a thin line under the white part of the eye. This line is actually for the top rim of the lower eyelids, where we will place the lower eyelashes later. Underneath this, draw any characteristic lines that support the bottom of the eyeballs.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-337\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"05p bride eyes lower lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 6: Surrounding Features</h3>\r\nDraw the eyebrows, bouquet, face, ear, hair, veil, and any other features that you want to include. Put as much or as little detail as you wish. You can just use simple shapes, especially for the bouquet. It is okay if some of the drawing extends outside of the grid squares.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-338\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"06p bride eyes surrounding\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 7: Guidelines for Shading</h3>\r\nDraw light lines where you see shadows. The shading you will add later will provide form to the eyes and surrounding facial features.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-339\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"07p bride eyes shading\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 8: Erase Grid Lines</h3>\r\nCarefully erase the grid lines. Try to erase as much as you can without affecting the lines of the actual drawing. If you can still see some light lines (as indicated by the arrow), it’s not too big of a deal. You can mask them later with shading.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-340\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"08p bride eyes erase\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 9: Shading and Details</h3>\r\nUse the lines you made earlier and the reference photo to add shading. Try to use soft strokes that go in the same direction as the surfaces you are shading. For the eyebrows, I lightly shade what was drawn before, and then I use short pencil lines to represent the individual hairs. Pay attention to direction, and notice how most but not all of the little hairs flow together. For the whites of the eyes, I almost always put a little bit of shading under the upper eyelids and some on each corner to give that spherical look to the eyeballs. Make the pupils as dark as you possibly can. For the iris, make the outer rim darker, and draw lines going toward the pupil. Leave the catchlights white by shading around them.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-341\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"09p bride eyes details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 10: Eyelashes</h3>\r\nI like to leave the eyelashes as the last step for the eyes. This way, I can have all of my desired shading complete and place the lashes over it, for a more natural appearance. Carefully trace part of the upper eyelid in dark black before placing the upper eyelashes. This will give them a certain thickness. Use fine pencil lines from the lids outward for each of the hairs (much like the eyebrows). Pay attention to direction, and make the lower eyelashes shorter.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-342\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"10p bride eyes lashes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\nYou may have heard it said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. That is why drawing eyes correctly is so vital for portrait artists. The eyes are a very important (if not the most important) part of capturing a subject’s true likeness. Apply what you learn from this drawing to other drawings like it that focus mainly on the eyes. Then, when you try to draw a familiar face, you will likely see a better resemblance in your work!','How to Draw Eyes of the Bride','','inherit','open','open','','271-revision-v1','','','2013-06-27 15:33:58','2013-06-27 22:33:58','',271,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/271-revision-30/',0,'revision','',0),(624,2,'2013-07-19 16:32:19','2013-07-19 23:32:19','<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6.gif\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-280\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6.gif\" width=\"450\" height=\"343\" /></a></p>\r\nHere we have a drawing of a bride, eyes wide and looking from behind a bouquet.

I like to use a <a title=\"Pickett Template 1204-i Circle Master\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/pickett-template-1204-i-circle-master/\">circle template</a> to make this tracing easier and more accurate. Remember, too, to make smaller circles serving as highlights (or catchlights).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-336\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"04p bride eyes irises and pupils\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 5: Lower Eyelids</h3>\r\nRepeat the same process as you did for the upper eyelids to make the lower lids. Draw a thin line under the white part of the eye. This line is actually for the top rim of the lower eyelids, where we will place the lower eyelashes later. Underneath this, draw any characteristic lines that support the bottom of the eyeballs.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-337\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"05p bride eyes lower lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 6: Surrounding Features</h3>\r\nDraw the eyebrows, bouquet, face, ear, hair, veil, and any other features that you want to include. Put as much or as little detail as you wish. You can just use simple shapes, especially for the bouquet. It is okay if some of the drawing extends outside of the grid squares.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-338\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"06p bride eyes surrounding\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 7: Guidelines for Shading</h3>\r\nDraw light lines where you see shadows. The shading you will add later will provide form to the eyes and surrounding facial features.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-339\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"07p bride eyes shading\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 8: Erase Grid Lines</h3>\r\nCarefully erase the grid lines. Try to erase as much as you can without affecting the lines of the actual drawing. If you can still see some light lines (as indicated by the arrow), it’s not too big of a deal. You can mask them later with shading.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-340\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"08p bride eyes erase\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 9: Shading and Details</h3>\r\nUse the lines you made earlier and the reference photo to add shading. Try to use soft strokes that go in the same direction as the surfaces you are shading. For the eyebrows, I lightly shade what was drawn before, and then I use short pencil lines to represent the individual hairs. Pay attention to direction, and notice how most but not all of the little hairs flow together. For the whites of the eyes, I almost always put a little bit of shading under the upper eyelids and some on each corner to give that spherical look to the eyeballs. Make the pupils as dark as you possibly can. For the iris, make the outer rim darker, and draw lines going toward the pupil. Leave the catchlights white by shading around them.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-341\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"09p bride eyes details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 10: Eyelashes</h3>\r\nI like to leave the eyelashes as the last step for the eyes. This way, I can have all of my desired shading complete and place the lashes over it, for a more natural appearance. Carefully trace part of the upper eyelid in dark black before placing the upper eyelashes. This will give them a certain thickness. Use fine pencil lines from the lids outward for each of the hairs (much like the eyebrows). Pay attention to direction, and make the lower eyelashes shorter.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-342\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"10p bride eyes lashes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\nYou may have heard it said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. That is why drawing eyes correctly is so vital for portrait artists. The eyes are a very important (if not the most important) part of capturing a subject’s true likeness. Apply what you learn from this drawing to other drawings like it that focus mainly on the eyes. Then, when you try to draw a familiar face, you will likely see a better resemblance in your work!','How to Draw Eyes of the Bride','','inherit','open','open','','271-revision-v1','','','2013-07-19 16:32:19','2013-07-19 23:32:19','',271,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/271-revision-31/',0,'revision','',0),(625,2,'2013-07-19 16:37:43','2013-07-19 23:37:43','<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6.gif\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-280\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6.gif\" width=\"450\" height=\"343\" /></a></p>\r\nHere we have a drawing of a bride, eyes wide and looking from behind a bouquet. The central focus will be on her eyes and how to draw them. Hopefully after giving this a try, you will learn to include all of the little details that bring the eyes to life. So refer to the reference photo below, as well as my step-by-step drawings, and let’s draw some eyes!\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-343\" title=\"© Pzaxe | Dreamstime.com\" alt=\"http://www.dreamstime.com/-image16063419\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares across and 3 squares down. They can be any size you choose. Just make sure to use a ruler and make perfect squares if you are hoping for a more accurate drawing of the photograph. If you are good at sketching lines and can make boxes approximately the same size, that will work too for this drawing (since we are not trying to capture a likeness).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-288\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"01p bride eyes grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 2: Outline of the Eyes</h3>\r\nOnce again, if you are using your grid for accuracy, pay close attention to placement. For example, the corner of the bride’s left eye (right side of the drawing) is approximately at the imaginary center line of its grid box (lined up with the arrow). Also, notice how the widths of both eyes are the same, and there is about one eye-width between the two eyes. This is a standard rule of thumb for drawing eyes looking directly at you, no matter who you are drawing! You can also include the tear ducts at this point.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-290\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"02p bride eyes outline\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 3: Upper Eyelids</h3>\r\nDraw a thin line above each eye’s outline to represent the eyelids. Draw lines from the outer corners that will lead to the brows. Draw lines from the inner corners to the upper bridge of the nose.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-294\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"03p bride eyes upper lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 4: Irises and Pupils</h3>\r\nUsing your grid and guidelines to help you, lightly sketch circles for the irises and pupils.

The good news is, there are a wide variety of shoes that exist for us to choose from. So I thought, what better way to begin learning how to draw shoes than to learn something simple? With that said, here is a lesson for drawing wedge high heel shoes. Here is a reference photo for us to draw. In case you are up for more of a challenge, the feet do come included!\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/dreamstime_xs_25047892.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-161\" alt=\"© Branislav Ostojic | Dreamstime.com\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/dreamstime_xs_25047892.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares to use as guidelines. The size isn’t important, but use a ruler to construct your squares properly. This is an optional step, but it can also be a helpful one if you are drawing along with me and want to make your feet and shoes look as close to mine as possible. Grids are really useful for proper placement of your lines.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-141\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"432\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 2: Draw the Basic Shapes</h3>\r\nIn this drawing, I am focusing on the two center grid squares. Lightly draw basic shapes for the legs and feet. Use long oval shapes for the legs. Notice how the lines overlap? Even though the right leg is in front, we can still see the outlines of the left leg. This is a good thing, because it helps us to properly place the features that are not obstructed. We will go back later to erase lines that should be hidden. Use wedge shapes for the feet and toes. Use smaller oval shapes or circular shapes for the heel and ankles.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shapes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-144\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shapes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shapes.jpg\" width=\"379\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 3: Shape the Shoes</h3>\r\nBegin making a wedge shape for the wedge shoes. Since these are wedge high heels that we are drawing, they should be taller in the back. Show a little bit of curvature as they come up to the front.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-146\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shoes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoes.jpg\" width=\"353\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 4: Define the Legs and Feet</h3>\r\nUse the shapes to add more defining lines of detail to the legs and feet. Your shapes from earlier are to serve simply as guidelines; don’t feel like you have to draw over them exactly. Notice here that I decided to draw to the right of my guideline, so the curve from the calf muscle would look more slender and natural. Also notice that I didn’t trace those lines of the left leg that are hidden behind the right leg in the foreground. Add in a line or two for the ankle, and do your best to indicate the toes, using your wedge shapes to help you.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-legs.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-142\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels legs\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-legs.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 5: Draw the Base of the Shoes</h3>\r\nDraw thin lines on the top and bottom of each shoe to represent the outer soles and insoles. There is a barely noticeable heel on the bottom of the shoe. Also, notice the space between the foot and the insole.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoe-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-145\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shoe details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoe-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 6: Add the Straps</h3>\r\nAdd the straps for the heel, toes, and ankles. You should draw the heel strap overlapping the insole a bit, and then erase the part the strap conceals. You can add a buckle and a few holes to the ankle strap.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-straps.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-147\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels straps\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-straps.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 7: Plan Your Shading</h3>\r\nMake guidelines to help you place some shading. This way you can plan your light source, draw where the shadows should be, and make any changes needed before committing a lot of shading.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shade-lines.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-143\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shade lines\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shade-lines.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 8: Add Final Details</h3>\r\nFinish up shading and add final details. Add in shading by using your guidelines from the last step. Consider which areas need to be darker, like just under the foot where it meets the insole and where the front leg casts a shadow on the leg behind it. Also notice a little shading progression on the front part of the shoes to indicate the curves.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-140\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 9: Erase the Guidelines</h3>\r\nCarefully erase your guidelines. This includes your square gridlines, any shape guidelines you didn’t need (like under the calf), and any that should be hidden from view (like the left leg behind the right). You’ll have to work around the lines you want to keep.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/wedge-high-heels-finished.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-139\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"wedge high heels finished\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/wedge-high-heels-finished.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\nAnd that is how you draw a pair of feet wearing wedge high heel shoes! Try practicing this with a different style of wedge shoe next time. This is also good practice for getting better at drawing feet, because you are drawing the shoes that conform to the basic shape of the foot and you are not drawing the feet in isolation.

With that said, here is a lesson for drawing wedge high heel shoes. Here is a reference photo for us to draw. In case you are up for more of a challenge, the feet do come included!\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/dreamstime_xs_25047892.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-161\" alt=\"© Branislav Ostojic | Dreamstime.com\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/dreamstime_xs_25047892.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares to use as guidelines. The size isn’t important, but use a ruler to construct your squares properly. This is an optional step, but it can also be a helpful one if you are drawing along with me and want to make your feet and shoes look as close to mine as possible. Grids are really useful for proper placement of your lines.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-141\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"432\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 2: Draw the Basic Shapes</h3>\r\nIn this drawing, I am focusing on the two center grid squares. Lightly draw basic shapes for the legs and feet. Use long oval shapes for the legs. Notice how the lines overlap? Even though the right leg is in front, we can still see the outlines of the left leg. This is a good thing, because it helps us to properly place the features that are not obstructed. We will go back later to erase lines that should be hidden. Use wedge shapes for the feet and toes. Use smaller oval shapes or circular shapes for the heel and ankles.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shapes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-144\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shapes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shapes.jpg\" width=\"379\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 3: Shape the Shoes</h3>\r\nBegin making a wedge shape for the wedge shoes. Since these are wedge high heels that we are drawing, they should be taller in the back. Show a little bit of curvature as they come up to the front.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-146\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shoes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoes.jpg\" width=\"353\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 4: Define the Legs and Feet</h3>\r\nUse the shapes to add more defining lines of detail to the legs and feet. Your shapes from earlier are to serve simply as guidelines; don’t feel like you have to draw over them exactly. Notice here that I decided to draw to the right of my guideline, so the curve from the calf muscle would look more slender and natural. Also notice that I didn’t trace those lines of the left leg that are hidden behind the right leg in the foreground. Add in a line or two for the ankle, and do your best to indicate the toes, using your wedge shapes to help you.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-legs.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-142\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels legs\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-legs.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 5: Draw the Base of the Shoes</h3>\r\nDraw thin lines on the top and bottom of each shoe to represent the outer soles and insoles. There is a barely noticeable heel on the bottom of the shoe. Also, notice the space between the foot and the insole.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoe-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-145\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shoe details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoe-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 6: Add the Straps</h3>\r\nAdd the straps for the heel, toes, and ankles. You should draw the heel strap overlapping the insole a bit, and then erase the part the strap conceals. You can add a buckle and a few holes to the ankle strap.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-straps.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-147\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels straps\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-straps.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 7: Plan Your Shading</h3>\r\nMake guidelines to help you place some shading. This way you can plan your light source, draw where the shadows should be, and make any changes needed before committing a lot of shading.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shade-lines.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-143\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shade lines\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shade-lines.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 8: Add Final Details</h3>\r\nFinish up shading and add final details. Add in shading by using your guidelines from the last step. Consider which areas need to be darker, like just under the foot where it meets the insole and where the front leg casts a shadow on the leg behind it. Also notice a little shading progression on the front part of the shoes to indicate the curves.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-140\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 9: Erase the Guidelines</h3>\r\nCarefully erase your guidelines. This includes your square gridlines, any shape guidelines you didn’t need (like under the calf), and any that should be hidden from view (like the left leg behind the right). You’ll have to work around the lines you want to keep.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/wedge-high-heels-finished.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-139\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"wedge high heels finished\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/wedge-high-heels-finished.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\nAnd that is how you draw a pair of feet wearing wedge high heel shoes! Try practicing this with a different style of wedge shoe next time. This is also good practice for getting better at drawing feet, because you are drawing the shoes that conform to the basic shape of the foot and you are not drawing the feet in isolation. Feet and toes take time to learn…just keep practicing until you have a satisfying composition of shoes and feet!','How to Draw Feet Wearing Wedge High Heels','','inherit','open','open','','129-revision-v1','','','2013-07-19 16:49:50','2013-07-19 23:49:50','',129,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/129-revision-34/',0,'revision','',0),(629,2,'2013-07-19 16:57:29','2013-07-19 23:57:29',' ','','','publish','open','closed','','629','','','2017-06-06 05:25:20','2017-06-06 12:25:20','',9,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/?p=629',11,'nav_menu_item','',0),(630,1,'2013-06-25 21:01:41','2013-06-26 04:01:41','<center><iframe src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/kJw_7IeQEZ8?rel=0\" height=\"360\" width=\"640\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"></iframe></center>When making a drawing of celebrities (or anyone else, for that matter), it&#146;s helpful to look for characteristics in their features that stand out or make them unique. Noticing these characteristics and including them in your drawing will help you to create a closer, more accurate likeness. In this tutorial, we will use this reference photo to learn how to draw Justin Bieber. Justin is a very popular star, and his face is known all over the world. I will point out some key characteristics of Justin&#146;s facial features along the way that will help us get a likeness that is close to his. So here we go&#133; watch the video above, read the steps below, and try your hand at it too!\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/dreamstime_xs_25283976.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-166\" alt=\"&copy; Carrienelson1 | Dreamstime.com\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/dreamstime_xs_25283976.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid and Guidelines</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 3 squares by 5 squares. As you follow along with me, try to draw as accurately as possible what you see in each square to keep things in proportion. Next, draw some basic guidelines for the face. Our reference photo is a recent picture of the Biebs, so since he is growing older, our &#147;oval&#148; shape will reflect a longer and more narrow face than when Justin was a younger child. Also, notice the lightly-drawn guidelines that will serve as rough placement for the center of the face, eyes, nose, and mouth.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/01-bieber-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-214\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"01 bieber grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/01-bieber-grid.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 2: Draw the Eyes</h3>\r\nNotice in the previous step I said &#147;rough placement&#148;. Guidelines are meant to give you general guidance, but you don&#146;t have to be tied to them. So, rather than drawing the eyes directly on the guideline, I drew them just below the line, with the eyebrows above the guideline. Justin has noticeable eyelashes, so I didn&#146;t leave those out of the drawing. In addition, there is a tiny bit of foreshortening present since Justin&#146;s head is slightly turned. Therefore, I decided to leave one eye looking a little smaller than the other.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/02-bieber-eyes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-216\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"02 bieber eyes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/02-bieber-eyes.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 3: Make Justin&#146;s Nose</h3>\r\nOur reference photo shows a nose with a rather short bridge and round tip. You can almost see the &#147;ball&#148; of cartilage at the bottom. These are distinguishing features to include when drawing Justin Bieber&#146;s nose. A not-so distinguishing feature (since it&#146;s common to just about everyone) is how the outer part of the nostril is practically in line with the inside corner of the eye.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/03-bieber-nose.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-217\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"03 bieber nose\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/03-bieber-nose.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 4: Draw His Mouth</h3>\r\nUse a combination of lines and shading to form some of the curves in Justin&#146;s lips. The front teeth that are visible in our photo look very similar in size. Take your time with the teeth. They can be tricky to draw but go a long way with forming a likeness. Also, draw some of the subtle lines outside the corners of Justin&#146;s mouth that form his smile and cheeks.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/04-bieber-mouth.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-219\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"04 bieber mouth\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/04-bieber-mouth.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 5: Form the Ears and the Outline of the Face</h3>\r\nOnce again, because of foreshortening, one ear is clearly visible and the other is obstructed by Justin&#146;s face and barely noticeable. Just try to draw the outer part of the lobe that can be seen. Be sure to draw the earrings that Justin likes to sport too. Notice as well the characteristic lines that connect the cheeks to the chin.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/05-bieber-ears.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-221\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"05 bieber ears\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/05-bieber-ears.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 6: Draw Justin&#146;s Hair</h3>\r\nOkay, so far we are doing good, but it looks like we have a bald Biebs. What would a drawing of Justin Bieber be without all of that hair? He&#146;s got a lot of it that sits thick above the top of his skull. You are going to have to pay attention to how the hair is styled in different directions, and just &#147;go with the flow&#148;.&nbsp; Draw lines that go in the direction of the hair growth. Use the reference photo to assist you. You can see how he has a lot of strands curving upward from the hairline. Use combinations of dark against light as shown here to build volume. Draw a few hairs that are loose and hang away from the mass.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/06-bieber-hair.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-223\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"06 bieber hair\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/06-bieber-hair.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 7: Draw the Neck and Jacket</h3>\r\nThere&#146;s not too much to this part. We notice Justin wearing a t-shirt and jacket with a chain around his neck. We don&#146;t see the whole chain, since it hangs down out of our view. Do draw a bit of a shadow that Justin&#146;s chin casts on his neck.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/07-bieber-neck.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-225\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"07 bieber neck\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/07-bieber-neck.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 8: Erase and Add Final Details</h3>\r\nCarefully erase your guidelines. This includes your square gridlines and any facial guidelines you no longer want. A kneaded eraser is useful for this part, as it helps you maneuver around what you want to keep. Add in some final details. These could include a few moles unique to Justin&#146;s face, a few extra strands or highlights in the hair (again, great use for the kneaded eraser!), or just some other features you want to go back and better define. Add as much or as little shading as you want to make you satisfied with your final drawing.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/08-bieber.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-227\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"08 bieber\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/08-bieber.jpg\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\"></a></p>\r\nThere you have it, a few simple steps for how to draw Justin Bieber! Remember, even if your finished drawing doesn&#146;t look completely like Justin, including facial characteristics that are unique to him will help with the resemblance. And of course, the more detail and shading you include, the more realistic your drawing of Justin Bieber will look. There&#146;s no set rule as to how much detail to include. It all just depends on what level of realism you are trying to achieve!\r\n<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"//assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js\"></script>','How to Draw Justin Bieber','','inherit','open','open','','165-revision-v1','','','2013-06-25 21:01:41','2013-06-26 04:01:41','',165,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/165-revision-53/',0,'revision','',0),(631,2,'2013-07-19 18:42:57','2013-07-20 01:42:57','<center><iframe src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/kJw_7IeQEZ8?rel=0\" height=\"360\" width=\"640\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"></iframe></center>When making a drawing of celebrities (or anyone else, for that matter), it&#146;s helpful to look for characteristics in their features that stand out or make them unique.

It all just depends on what level of realism you are trying to achieve!\r\n<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"//assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js\"></script>','How to Draw Justin Bieber','','inherit','open','open','','165-revision-v1','','','2013-07-19 18:42:57','2013-07-20 01:42:57','',165,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/165-revision-54/',0,'revision','',0),(632,2,'2013-07-19 16:53:31','2013-07-19 23:53:31','<center><iframe src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/ehYHsGCYSH0?rel=0\" height=\"360\" width=\"640\" frameborder=\"0\"></iframe></center>Shoes can be quite tricky to draw, especially if you consider yourself a beginner. The good news is, there are a wide variety of shoes that exist for us to choose from. So I thought, what better way to begin learning how to draw shoes than to learn something simple? With that said, here is a lesson for drawing wedge high heel shoes. Here is a reference photo for us to draw. In case you are up for more of a challenge, the feet do come included!\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/dreamstime_xs_25047892.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-161\" alt=\"© Branislav Ostojic | Dreamstime.com\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/dreamstime_xs_25047892.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares to use as guidelines. The size isn’t important, but use a ruler to construct your squares properly. This is an optional step, but it can also be a helpful one if you are drawing along with me and want to make your feet and shoes look as close to mine as possible. Grids are really useful for proper placement of your lines.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-141\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"432\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 2: Draw the Basic Shapes</h3>\r\nIn this drawing, I am focusing on the two center grid squares. Lightly draw basic shapes for the legs and feet. Use long oval shapes for the legs. Notice how the lines overlap? Even though the right leg is in front, we can still see the outlines of the left leg. This is a good thing, because it helps us to properly place the features that are not obstructed. We will go back later to erase lines that should be hidden. Use wedge shapes for the feet and toes. Use smaller oval shapes or circular shapes for the heel and ankles.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shapes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-144\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shapes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shapes.jpg\" width=\"379\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 3: Shape the Shoes</h3>\r\nBegin making a wedge shape for the wedge shoes. Since these are wedge high heels that we are drawing, they should be taller in the back. Show a little bit of curvature as they come up to the front.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-146\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shoes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoes.jpg\" width=\"353\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 4: Define the Legs and Feet</h3>\r\nUse the shapes to add more defining lines of detail to the legs and feet. Your shapes from earlier are to serve simply as guidelines; don’t feel like you have to draw over them exactly. Notice here that I decided to draw to the right of my guideline, so the curve from the calf muscle would look more slender and natural. Also notice that I didn’t trace those lines of the left leg that are hidden behind the right leg in the foreground. Add in a line or two for the ankle, and do your best to indicate the toes, using your wedge shapes to help you.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-legs.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-142\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels legs\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-legs.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 5: Draw the Base of the Shoes</h3>\r\nDraw thin lines on the top and bottom of each shoe to represent the outer soles and insoles. There is a barely noticeable heel on the bottom of the shoe. Also, notice the space between the foot and the insole.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoe-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-145\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shoe details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shoe-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 6: Add the Straps</h3>\r\nAdd the straps for the heel, toes, and ankles. You should draw the heel strap overlapping the insole a bit, and then erase the part the strap conceals. You can add a buckle and a few holes to the ankle strap.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-straps.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-147\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels straps\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-straps.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 7: Plan Your Shading</h3>\r\nMake guidelines to help you place some shading. This way you can plan your light source, draw where the shadows should be, and make any changes needed before committing a lot of shading.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shade-lines.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-143\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels shade lines\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-shade-lines.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 8: Add Final Details</h3>\r\nFinish up shading and add final details. Add in shading by using your guidelines from the last step. Consider which areas need to be darker, like just under the foot where it meets the insole and where the front leg casts a shadow on the leg behind it. Also notice a little shading progression on the front part of the shoes to indicate the curves.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-140\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"drawing wedge high heels details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drawing-wedge-high-heels-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 9: Erase the Guidelines</h3>\r\nCarefully erase your guidelines. This includes your square gridlines, any shape guidelines you didn’t need (like under the calf), and any that should be hidden from view (like the left leg behind the right). You’ll have to work around the lines you want to keep.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/wedge-high-heels-finished.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-139\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"wedge high heels finished\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/wedge-high-heels-finished.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" /></a></h3>\r\nAnd that is how you draw a pair of feet wearing wedge high heel shoes! Try practicing this with a different style of wedge shoe next time. This is also good practice for getting better at drawing feet, because you are drawing the shoes that conform to the basic shape of the foot and you are not drawing the feet in isolation. Feet and toes take time to learn…just keep practicing until you have a satisfying composition of shoes and feet!','How to Draw Feet Wearing Wedge High Heels','','inherit','open','open','','129-revision-v1','','','2013-07-19 16:53:31','2013-07-19 23:53:31','',129,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/129-revision-35/',0,'revision','',0),(633,1,'2013-06-25 21:02:02','2013-06-26 04:02:02','<center><iframe src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/CgfuB38izSc?rel=0\" height=\"360\" width=\"640\" frameborder=\"0\"></iframe></center>Okay Everybody, if you want to know how to draw noses, here is a quick tutorial for how to draw a simple nose. It is a very generic nose looking straight ahead.\r\n<h3>Step 1: Sketch the Basic Shapes</h3>\r\nThink about each of the major parts of the nose as a shape. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Lightly</span> draw these shapes to serve as your guidelines. Draw a long, narrow oval for the bridge and a circle at the bottom for the tip, overlapping the oval. You can draw two half-circles (or overlapping circles) for the nostrils. I often think of the nostrils as “parentheses” when I draw them!\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nose01.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-93\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"nose01\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nose01.jpg\" width=\"520\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 2: Define the Bridge</h3>\r\nRemember to think of the bridge of the nose as three surfaces. You are going to define the two sides by drawing two light lines down the oval, and the front should take care of itself. The lines should curve away from each other at the top. Decide where the light is coming from. For this drawing, I decided it is coming from the right. Sketch some heavier shading on the left side and some very light shading on the right.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nose02.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-88\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"nose02\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nose02.jpg\" width=\"520\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 3: Form the Nostrils</h3>\r\nStart forming the nostrils by darkening up your (parentheses) guidelines. I usually don’t make perfectly formed parentheses, because the nostrils tend to flatten out at the bottom where they meet with the face. Start drawing along the bottom part of your circle to begin the nasal passages. You have to remember that that circle represents a ball of cartilage, and there is a little cartilage between the nasal passages too.\r\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nose04.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-86\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"nose04\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nose04.jpg\" width=\"520\" height=\"600\" /></a></h3>\r\n<h3>Step 4: Finish the Tip and Touch Up</h3>\r\nSo for the tip of the nose, I added a little shading to round out the ball and the top of the nostrils. Then I erased most of my guidelines; you know, those shapes we began with. Since this is a sketch, I sometimes like to leave a few guidelines and stray marks in. It can add to your artwork.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nose03.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-89\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"nose03\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nose03.jpg\" width=\"520\" height=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\nSo there you have it…the basics for drawing a basic nose!

For many people, the nose seems to be a major sticking point. If you want to know how to draw noses better, just read the following tips!\r\n<h3>Placement</h3>\r\nAlthough noses do come in many shapes and sizes, they all have the same placement on the face. They are generally one eye-width wide and come down to halfway between the eyebrows and chin.\r\n<h3>Projection</h3>\r\nYou should study examples of different noses to see how they project from the face. Some noses seem to curve inward from between the eyes before the bridge comes out, and others can jut out quite prominently from the face.\r\n<h3>Bridge</h3>\r\nWhen drawing the bridge of the nose, be careful not to use solid lines on both sides. Your nose will look more cartoonish. Now if that is what you’re going for, then it’s fine. For a less cartoon-like nose, think of the bridge as three surfaces: the front with two sides sloping down to the face. I usually will note the light source and maybe put a very light, broken line on the lit side. On the other side, some light shading with short, slanted zig-zag lines works.\r\n<h3>Tip</h3>\r\nThink of the tip and bottom part of the nose as 3 little spheres. Just as with the bridge, think “light lines” when representing the tip.\r\n<h3>Nostrils</h3>\r\nDon’t forget to draw the little piece of cartilage below the tip that separates the nostrils. If you focus on drawing the surrounding skin and not the holes themselves, the nostrils will take care of themselves.\r\n\r\nSo, I know these are all common-knowledge facts about noses, but they are little things people sometimes forget to think about when drawing them. The next time you <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/features/noses/\">draw a nose</a>, keep these tips in mind that apply to all noses, but also draw the unique characteristics of each part of the nose that will give individuality!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Tips for How to Draw Noses','','inherit','open','open','','77-revision-v1','','','2013-06-25 21:02:37','2013-06-26 04:02:37','',77,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/77-revision-19/',0,'revision','',0),(636,2,'2013-07-21 17:27:27','2013-07-22 00:27:27','<center><iframe src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/PjHB_fm1VTA?rel-0\" height=\"360\" width=\"640\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"></iframe></center>\r\n<a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nose-tips.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-80\" title=\"nose tips\" alt=\"\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nose-tips-300x275.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"275\" /></a>If you have trouble when it comes to drawing noses, you are not alone.

Maybe you just draw stick people. Maybe you think that you &#147;can&#146;t&#148; draw at all.\r\n\r\nBy the way, if the last statement applies to you, stop thinking that way right now and start thinking you &#147;CAN&#148;!\r\n\r\nAnyway, regardless of what you can already do, there are some things to consider when learning how to draw people. Thinking about these things and learning them will be sure to help you.\r\n<h2>Types of People Drawing</h2>\r\nFirst of all, people are rendered in different types of drawings. You should put some thought into which one of these you prefer and put the effort into learning that particular type of drawing.\r\n<h3>Cartoon People</h3>\r\nYou may want to learn how to draw cartoon people. This is a great way to start out and practice if you are a beginner. More importantly, it&#146;s a great way to have fun with drawing people!\r\n\r\nYou can really let yourself loose and not stress about something not &#147;looking&#148; right. You can get creative and make up your own characters.\r\n\r\nI had a wild imagination as a child and I did this all the time, creating comic book characters and fictional cartoon TV shows. On that note, as you practice and build your confidence, you may find yourself wanting to draw people from popular cartoons on TV.\r\n<h3>Caricatures</h3>\r\nHave you ever seen that artist on the sidewalk, drawing a happy couple who is posing for him, undisturbed at the onlookers walking by? If you were one of those onlookers and saw the drawing, you may have seen a &#147;cartoon&#148; with an unmistakable resemblance to the couple.\r\n\r\nYou were looking at a caricature drawing. This may be enough to motivate you to learn how to draw caricatures. These can be a lot of fun but at the same time a little challenging. Even though you are drawing what appears to be a cartoon with exaggerated features, you have to take great care to still capture an accurate likeness.\r\n\r\nYou have probably seen caricatures of famous celebrities and politicians on TV and in the newspaper. If you want to learn how to draw caricatures, trying to do so with public figures can be excellent practice.\r\n<h3>Realistic People</h3>\r\n<a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nirma.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-73\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" title=\"nirma\" alt=\"\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nirma-221x300.jpg\" width=\"221\" height=\"300\"></a>Some artists like to make detailed, realistic drawings of people. They want their drawings to look as close as possible to someone who is believable and real. These are my personal favorite!\r\n\r\nThere are two main ways that I like to classify realistic drawings of people: portrait drawings and character studies.\r\n\r\nA portrait drawing is a drawing of a person or people who are posing and looking directly back at you. A character study is a drawing of a person or people who are going about their daily lives, each exhibiting a particular mood or personality for us to assess.\r\n\r\nOne great way to learn how to draw people realistically is to practice on family members, friends, and <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/celebrities/\">celebrities</a>. The important thing about realistic drawing is attention to detail and capturing enough realism to make the person you are drawing easy for others to recognize.\r\n<h2>Drawing Styles</h2>\r\nWhether it be ability level or personal preference, artists create their work using different styles. You may want to experiment with these and pick one as your primary style, or you may wish to openly practice and explore multiple styles as you see fit, not limiting yourself to just one.\r\n<ul><li>Line drawing -&nbsp;This is a very basic drawing with just a simple outline of the major shapes of the person. There is usually little detail in a line drawing.</li>\r\n	<li>Sketch drawing - This can be simple or a little more complex. I really enjoy sketching people! It involves having a very loose wrist and not being constrained with the pressure of making mistakes, often keeping beginning guidelines in the final product. Sketches sometimes include tones as well as lines.</li>\r\n	<li>Detailed drawing -&nbsp;This can be (what started out as) a simple line drawing with a lot more detail added. It can also be a combination of a line and sketch drawing. The bottom line is lots of details.</li>\r\n	<li>Realistic drawing - A detailed drawing of a person (as described above) can still look realistic. But for the purposes of this description, I&#146;m talking about taking things to the next level. This usually means blended shading and the tiniest of details that you&#146;d never find on a basic drawing.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nRemember, you are the artist! There is no &#147;wrong way&#148; to express yourself, so have fun experimenting with these styles!\r\n<h2>What You Need to Learn</h2>\r\nRegardless of the type of &#147;people drawing&#148; you most want to pursue or your personal drawing style, there are some basic fundamentals you will have to learn.\r\n\r\nOne thing you will need to grasp a basic understanding of is proportion. There are certain ways we size different body parts and different facial features, and there are methods we use to determine how much they should be spaced apart. This is most important in realistic drawing, but having knowledge of proportions is not totally useless with cartoons and caricatures.\r\n\r\nThere is so much to learn about drawing faces. The human face has so many unique and distinguishing <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/features/\">features</a>: eyes, nose, mouth, ears, hair. Each of these features has its own characteristics that we need to consider. For example, the eye consists of the pupil, iris, eyelids, and eyebrow, just to name a few.\r\n\r\nThese facial features work together in interesting ways to form a variety of expressions. So in order to draw people, you have to form the facial features in a way that conveys emotions such as happiness, sadness, anger, excitement, and so on.\r\n\r\nBut drawing people is not limited to just drawing the face. You also need to learn how to draw hands, which are always doing and helping people express themselves. <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/clothes/\">Clothes</a>, of course, are important as well. Maybe you want to draw someone in a recognizable uniform, such as a nurse or a police officer.\r\n<h2>What&#146;s the First Step?</h2>\r\nThis just touches the surface of what is involved in drawing people. I recommend reading through this article again and deciding which aspects of drawing people you wish to improve.\r\n\r\nLearn all you can by reading other related articles, studying artwork, and watching how other artists draw the parts that are tricky for you. Then&#133;\r\n\r\n<strong>PRACTICE!! PRACTICE!! PRACTICE!!</strong>\r\n\r\nDraw along with them. Do as they do. Then apply the skills you have learned to independently draw another person, using your own style and creativity.\r\n\r\nPractice drawing people you know. Draw from photos, pictures from magazines or the Internet. Draw from other drawings. Draw from your head, using the prior knowledge you have learned about how to draw a person.\r\n\r\nThe main thing is to keep practicing and don&#146;t get discouraged! If you are not happy with your results, go back and learn from another artist again before practicing some more.\r\n\r\nIt is my hope that I can be one of those artists you can learn from. I hope you find the information, art, and videos throughout this website useful, and I hope you will keep me in mind as a resource to return to whenever you need additional help with drawing people!\r\n\r\nGood luck and happy drawing!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Let\'s See How to Draw People','','inherit','open','open','','66-revision-v1','','','2013-07-10 21:40:19','2013-07-11 04:40:19','',66,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/66-revision-36/',0,'revision','',0),(668,2,'2016-06-28 13:18:29','2016-06-28 20:18:29','Welcome to our gallery of family drawings! Here you can view drawings of family members by our contributors and visitors.\n\nAs someone who is becoming more skilled at drawing people, you will find family and friends taking an increased interest in your talent. As a professional portrait artist, people who love your artwork will undoubtedly want to become your clients. When family, friends, or other people ask you (or pay you) to draw for them, who do they most often want you to draw?\n\nThey usually want you to draw a portrait from their personal collection of family photos. They may even ask you to take people from two or more photographs and combine them into one drawing. Your artistic creativity may sometimes be at play too, as when people ask you to include elements not in the original photographs.\n\nYou will see examples of all of these scenarios within this gallery. Notice the different arrangements of the subjects, features, and how the various elements of the family drawings create pleasing compositions.

Some drawings you may recognize, while others you may not. No matter how much or how little a drawing here captures a resemblance, take the opportunity to learn something from each piece. Some questions you may ask yourself as you view this gallery are:\n<ul>\n	<li>Which obvious features did the artist include to help make the famous face easily recognizable?</li>\n	<li>Which details or subtle facial characteristics did the artist include to obtain such an accurate likeness of the subject?</li>\n	<li> What could the artist have done differently to make a better representation of the celebrity?</li>\n</ul>\nThank you in advance to all artists who contribute their drawings of well-known faces to this gallery! Remember, too, that it\'s okay if your drawing doesn\'t come out perfectly or to your satisfaction. I am still hard on myself with some of my work, and I always see something I could have done differently for better results (even with my own drawings in this gallery!).

On that note, as you practice and build your confidence, you may find yourself wanting to draw people from popular cartoons on TV.\r\n<h3>Caricatures</h3>\r\nHave you ever seen that artist on the sidewalk, drawing a happy couple who is posing for him, undisturbed at the onlookers walking by? If you were one of those onlookers and saw the drawing, you may have seen a &#147;cartoon&#148; with an unmistakable resemblance to the couple.\r\n\r\nYou were looking at a caricature drawing. This may be enough to motivate you to learn how to draw caricatures. These can be a lot of fun but at the same time a little challenging. Even though you are drawing what appears to be a cartoon with exaggerated features, you have to take great care to still capture an accurate likeness.\r\n\r\nYou have probably seen caricatures of famous celebrities and politicians on TV and in the newspaper. If you want to learn how to draw caricatures, trying to do so with public figures can be excellent practice.\r\n<h3>Realistic People</h3>\r\n<a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nirma.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-73\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" title=\"nirma\" alt=\"\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/nirma-221x300.jpg\" width=\"221\" height=\"300\"></a>Some artists like to make detailed, realistic drawings of people. They want their drawings to look as close as possible to someone who is believable and real. These are my personal favorite!\r\n\r\nThere are two main ways that I like to classify realistic drawings of people: portrait drawings and character studies.\r\n\r\nA portrait drawing is a drawing of a person or people who are posing and looking directly back at you. A character study is a drawing of a person or people who are going about their daily lives, each exhibiting a particular mood or personality for us to assess.\r\n\r\nOne great way to learn how to draw people realistically is to practice on family members, friends, and <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/celebrities/\">celebrities</a>. The important thing about realistic drawing is attention to detail and capturing enough realism to make the person you are drawing easy for others to recognize.\r\n<h2>Drawing Styles</h2>\r\nWhether it be ability level or personal preference, artists create their work using different styles. You may want to experiment with these and pick one as your primary style, or you may wish to openly practice and explore multiple styles as you see fit, not limiting yourself to just one.\r\n<ul><li>Line drawing -&nbsp;This is a very basic drawing with just a simple outline of the major shapes of the person. There is usually little detail in a line drawing.</li>\r\n	<li>Sketch drawing - This can be simple or a little more complex. I really enjoy sketching people! It involves having a very loose wrist and not being constrained with the pressure of making mistakes, often keeping beginning guidelines in the final product. Sketches sometimes include tones as well as lines.</li>\r\n	<li>Detailed drawing -&nbsp;This can be (what started out as) a simple line drawing with a lot more detail added. It can also be a combination of a line and sketch drawing. The bottom line is lots of details.</li>\r\n	<li>Realistic drawing - A detailed drawing of a person (as described above) can still look realistic. But for the purposes of this description, I&#146;m talking about taking things to the next level. This usually means blended shading and the tiniest of details that you&#146;d never find on a basic drawing.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nRemember, you are the artist! There is no &#147;wrong way&#148; to express yourself, so have fun experimenting with these styles!\r\n<h2>What You Need to Learn</h2>\r\nRegardless of the type of &#147;people drawing&#148; you most want to pursue or your personal drawing style, there are some basic fundamentals you will have to learn.\r\n\r\nOne thing you will need to grasp a basic understanding of is proportion. There are certain ways we size different body parts and different facial features, and there are methods we use to determine how much they should be spaced apart. This is most important in realistic drawing, but having knowledge of proportions is not totally useless with cartoons and caricatures.\r\n\r\nThere is so much to learn about drawing faces. The human face has so many unique and distinguishing <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/features/\">features</a>: eyes, nose, mouth, ears, hair. Each of these features has its own characteristics that we need to consider. For example, the eye consists of the pupil, iris, eyelids, and eyebrow, just to name a few.\r\n\r\nThese facial features work together in interesting ways to form a variety of expressions. So in order to draw people, you have to form the facial features in a way that conveys emotions such as happiness, sadness, anger, excitement, and so on.\r\n\r\nBut drawing people is not limited to just drawing the face. You also need to learn how to draw hands, which are always doing and helping people express themselves. <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/category/clothes/\">Clothes</a>, of course, are important as well. Maybe you want to draw someone in a recognizable uniform, such as a nurse or a police officer.\r\n<h2>What&#146;s the First Step?</h2>\r\nThis just touches the surface of what is involved in drawing people. I recommend reading through this article again and deciding which aspects of drawing people you wish to improve.\r\n\r\nLearn all you can by reading other related articles, studying artwork, and watching how other artists draw the parts that are tricky for you. Then&#133;\r\n\r\n<strong>PRACTICE!! PRACTICE!! PRACTICE!!</strong>\r\n\r\nDraw along with them. Do as they do. Then apply the skills you have learned to independently draw another person, using your own style and creativity.\r\n\r\nPractice drawing people you know. Draw from photos, pictures from magazines or the Internet. Draw from other drawings. Draw from your head, using the prior knowledge you have learned about how to draw a person.\r\n\r\nThe main thing is to keep practicing and don&#146;t get discouraged! If you are not happy with your results, go back and learn from another artist again before practicing some more.\r\n\r\nIt is my hope that I can be one of those artists you can learn from. I hope you find the information, art, and videos throughout this website useful, and I hope you will keep me in mind as a resource to return to whenever you need additional help with drawing people!\r\n\r\nGood luck and happy drawing!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Let\'s See How to Draw People','','inherit','open','open','','66-revision-v1','','','2013-07-22 21:47:36','2013-07-23 04:47:36','',66,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/66-revision-37/',0,'revision','',0),(672,2,'2013-07-25 21:28:00','2013-07-26 04:28:00','Drawings of family.

The central focus will be on her eyes and how to draw them. Hopefully after giving this a try, you will learn to include all of the little details that bring the eyes to life. So refer to the reference photo below, as well as my step-by-step drawings, and let’s draw some eyes!\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-343\" title=\"© Pzaxe | Dreamstime.com\" alt=\"http://www.dreamstime.com/-image16063419\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares across and 3 squares down. They can be any size you choose. Just make sure to use a ruler and make perfect squares if you are hoping for a more accurate drawing of the photograph. If you are good at sketching lines and can make boxes approximately the same size, that will work too for this drawing (since we are not trying to capture a likeness).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-698\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"01p bride eyes grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 2: Outline of the Eyes</h3>\r\nOnce again, if you are using your grid for accuracy, pay close attention to placement. For example, the corner of the bride’s left eye (right side of the drawing) is approximately at the imaginary center line of its grid box (lined up with the arrow). Also, notice how the widths of both eyes are the same, and there is about one eye-width between the two eyes. This is a standard rule of thumb for drawing eyes looking directly at you, no matter who you are drawing! You can also include the tear ducts at this point.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-709\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"02p bride eyes outline\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 3: Upper Eyelids</h3>\r\nDraw a thin line above each eye’s outline to represent the eyelids. Draw lines from the outer corners that will lead to the brows. Draw lines from the inner corners to the upper bridge of the nose.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-710\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"03p bride eyes upper lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 4: Irises and Pupils</h3>\r\nUsing your grid and guidelines to help you, lightly sketch circles for the irises and pupils. If necessary, try a few times until you get satisfactory size and placement. Then, trace over them as carefully as you can to make them as round as possible. I like to use a <a title=\"Pickett Template 1204-i Circle Master\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/pickett-template-1204-i-circle-master/\">circle template</a> to make this tracing easier and more accurate. Remember, too, to make smaller circles serving as highlights (or catchlights).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-702\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"04p bride eyes irises and pupils\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 5: Lower Eyelids</h3>\r\nRepeat the same process as you did for the upper eyelids to make the lower lids. Draw a thin line under the white part of the eye. This line is actually for the top rim of the lower eyelids, where we will place the lower eyelashes later. Underneath this, draw any characteristic lines that support the bottom of the eyeballs.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-703\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"05p bride eyes lower lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 6: Surrounding Features</h3>\r\nDraw the eyebrows, bouquet, face, ear, hair, veil, and any other features that you want to include. Put as much or as little detail as you wish. You can just use simple shapes, especially for the bouquet. It is okay if some of the drawing extends outside of the grid squares.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-704\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"06p bride eyes surrounding\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 7: Guidelines for Shading</h3>\r\nDraw light lines where you see shadows. The shading you will add later will provide form to the eyes and surrounding facial features.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-705\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"07p bride eyes shading\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 8: Erase Grid Lines</h3>\r\nCarefully erase the grid lines. Try to erase as much as you can without affecting the lines of the actual drawing. If you can still see some light lines (as indicated by the arrow), it’s not too big of a deal. You can mask them later with shading.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-706\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"08p bride eyes erase\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 9: Shading and Details</h3>\r\nUse the lines you made earlier and the reference photo to add shading. Try to use soft strokes that go in the same direction as the surfaces you are shading. For the eyebrows, I lightly shade what was drawn before, and then I use short pencil lines to represent the individual hairs. Pay attention to direction, and notice how most but not all of the little hairs flow together. For the whites of the eyes, I almost always put a little bit of shading under the upper eyelids and some on each corner to give that spherical look to the eyeballs. Make the pupils as dark as you possibly can. For the iris, make the outer rim darker, and draw lines going toward the pupil. Leave the catchlights white by shading around them.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-707\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"09p bride eyes details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 10: Eyelashes</h3>\r\nI like to leave the eyelashes as the last step for the eyes. This way, I can have all of my desired shading complete and place the lashes over it, for a more natural appearance. Carefully trace part of the upper eyelid in dark black before placing the upper eyelashes. This will give them a certain thickness. Use fine pencil lines from the lids outward for each of the hairs (much like the eyebrows). Pay attention to direction, and make the lower eyelashes shorter.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-694\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\nYou may have heard it said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. That is why drawing eyes correctly is so vital for portrait artists. The eyes are a very important (if not the most important) part of capturing a subject’s true likeness. Apply what you learn from this drawing to other drawings like it that focus mainly on the eyes. Then, when you try to draw a familiar face, you will likely see a better resemblance in your work!','How to Draw Eyes of the Bride','','inherit','open','open','','271-revision-v1','','','2013-07-28 16:57:01','2013-07-28 23:57:01','',271,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/271-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(677,2,'2013-07-28 09:57:37','2013-07-28 16:57:37','<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6.gif\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-280\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6.gif\" width=\"450\" height=\"343\" /></a></p>\r\nHere we have a drawing of a bride, eyes wide and looking from behind a bouquet.

For the eyebrows, I lightly shade what was drawn before, and then I use short pencil lines to represent the individual hairs. Pay attention to direction, and notice how most but not all of the little hairs flow together. For the whites of the eyes, I almost always put a little bit of shading under the upper eyelids and some on each corner to give that spherical look to the eyeballs. Make the pupils as dark as you possibly can. For the iris, make the outer rim darker, and draw lines going toward the pupil. Leave the catchlights white by shading around them.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-341\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"09p bride eyes details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 10: Eyelashes</h3>\r\nI like to leave the eyelashes as the last step for the eyes. This way, I can have all of my desired shading complete and place the lashes over it, for a more natural appearance. Carefully trace part of the upper eyelid in dark black before placing the upper eyelashes. This will give them a certain thickness. Use fine pencil lines from the lids outward for each of the hairs (much like the eyebrows). Pay attention to direction, and make the lower eyelashes shorter.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-342\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"10p bride eyes lashes\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/10p-bride-eyes-lashes.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/10p-bride-eyes-lashes-hp.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-675\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"10p bride eyes lashes hp\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/10p-bride-eyes-lashes-hp.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\nYou may have heard it said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. That is why drawing eyes correctly is so vital for portrait artists. The eyes are a very important (if not the most important) part of capturing a subject’s true likeness. Apply what you learn from this drawing to other drawings like it that focus mainly on the eyes. Then, when you try to draw a familiar face, you will likely see a better resemblance in your work!','How to Draw Eyes of the Bride','','inherit','open','open','','271-revision-v1','','','2013-07-28 09:57:37','2013-07-28 16:57:37','',271,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/271-revision-34/',0,'revision','',0),(680,2,'2013-07-03 07:02:50','2013-07-03 14:02:50','Here\'s how.','Advertise with Us','','inherit','open','open','','543-revision-3','','','2013-07-03 07:02:50','2013-07-03 14:02:50','',543,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/543-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(682,2,'2013-07-28 12:26:50','2013-07-28 19:26:50','','Pencil Portrait Mastery','','inherit','open','open','','58-revision-8','','','2013-07-28 12:26:50','2013-07-28 19:26:50','',58,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/58-revision-8/',0,'revision','',0),(687,2,'2013-07-28 15:34:58','2013-07-28 22:34:58','For whatever reason, the link you clicked on or the web address you are trying to reach has led you here...to our<strong> 404 Page Not Found</strong> notice.\n\nBut that\'s okay!

The central focus will be on her eyes and how to draw them. Hopefully after giving this a try, you will learn to include all of the little details that bring the eyes to life. So refer to the reference photo below, as well as my step-by-step drawings, and let’s draw some eyes!\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-343\" title=\"© Pzaxe | Dreamstime.com\" alt=\"http://www.dreamstime.com/-image16063419\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares across and 3 squares down. They can be any size you choose. Just make sure to use a ruler and make perfect squares if you are hoping for a more accurate drawing of the photograph. If you are good at sketching lines and can make boxes approximately the same size, that will work too for this drawing (since we are not trying to capture a likeness).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-288\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"01p bride eyes grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 2: Outline of the Eyes</h3>\r\nOnce again, if you are using your grid for accuracy, pay close attention to placement. For example, the corner of the bride’s left eye (right side of the drawing) is approximately at the imaginary center line of its grid box (lined up with the arrow). Also, notice how the widths of both eyes are the same, and there is about one eye-width between the two eyes. This is a standard rule of thumb for drawing eyes looking directly at you, no matter who you are drawing! You can also include the tear ducts at this point.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-290\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"02p bride eyes outline\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 3: Upper Eyelids</h3>\r\nDraw a thin line above each eye’s outline to represent the eyelids. Draw lines from the outer corners that will lead to the brows. Draw lines from the inner corners to the upper bridge of the nose.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-294\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"03p bride eyes upper lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 4: Irises and Pupils</h3>\r\nUsing your grid and guidelines to help you, lightly sketch circles for the irises and pupils. If necessary, try a few times until you get satisfactory size and placement. Then, trace over them as carefully as you can to make them as round as possible. I like to use a <a title=\"Pickett Template 1204-i Circle Master\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/pickett-template-1204-i-circle-master/\">circle template</a> to make this tracing easier and more accurate. Remember, too, to make smaller circles serving as highlights (or catchlights).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-336\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"04p bride eyes irises and pupils\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 5: Lower Eyelids</h3>\r\nRepeat the same process as you did for the upper eyelids to make the lower lids. Draw a thin line under the white part of the eye. This line is actually for the top rim of the lower eyelids, where we will place the lower eyelashes later. Underneath this, draw any characteristic lines that support the bottom of the eyeballs.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-337\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"05p bride eyes lower lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 6: Surrounding Features</h3>\r\nDraw the eyebrows, bouquet, face, ear, hair, veil, and any other features that you want to include. Put as much or as little detail as you wish. You can just use simple shapes, especially for the bouquet. It is okay if some of the drawing extends outside of the grid squares.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-338\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"06p bride eyes surrounding\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 7: Guidelines for Shading</h3>\r\nDraw light lines where you see shadows. The shading you will add later will provide form to the eyes and surrounding facial features.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-339\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"07p bride eyes shading\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 8: Erase Grid Lines</h3>\r\nCarefully erase the grid lines. Try to erase as much as you can without affecting the lines of the actual drawing. If you can still see some light lines (as indicated by the arrow), it’s not too big of a deal. You can mask them later with shading.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-340\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"08p bride eyes erase\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 9: Shading and Details</h3>\r\nUse the lines you made earlier and the reference photo to add shading.

The shading you will add later will provide form to the eyes and surrounding facial features.\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-339\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"07p bride eyes shading\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/07p-bride-eyes-shading.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\n\n<h3>Step 8: Erase Grid Lines</h3>\nCarefully erase the grid lines. Try to erase as much as you can without affecting the lines of the actual drawing. If you can still see some light lines (as indicated by the arrow), it’s not too big of a deal. You can mask them later with shading.\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-340\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"08p bride eyes erase\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/08p-bride-eyes-erase.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\n\n<h3>Step 9: Shading and Details</h3>\nUse the lines you made earlier and the reference photo to add shading. Try to use soft strokes that go in the same direction as the surfaces you are shading. For the eyebrows, I lightly shade what was drawn before, and then I use short pencil lines to represent the individual hairs. Pay attention to direction, and notice how most but not all of the little hairs flow together. For the whites of the eyes, I almost always put a little bit of shading under the upper eyelids and some on each corner to give that spherical look to the eyeballs. Make the pupils as dark as you possibly can. For the iris, make the outer rim darker, and draw lines going toward the pupil. Leave the catchlights white by shading around them.\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-341\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"09p bride eyes details\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/09p-bride-eyes-details.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" /></a></p>\n\n<h3>Step 10: Eyelashes</h3>\nI like to leave the eyelashes as the last step for the eyes. This way, I can have all of my desired shading complete and place the lashes over it, for a more natural appearance. Carefully trace part of the upper eyelid in dark black before placing the upper eyelashes. This will give them a certain thickness. Use fine pencil lines from the lids outward for each of the hairs (much like the eyebrows). Pay attention to direction, and make the lower eyelashes shorter.\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"></p>\nYou may have heard it said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. That is why drawing eyes correctly is so vital for portrait artists. The eyes are a very important (if not the most important) part of capturing a subject’s true likeness. Apply what you learn from this drawing to other drawings like it that focus mainly on the eyes. Then, when you try to draw a familiar face, you will likely see a better resemblance in your work!','How to Draw Eyes of the Bride','','inherit','open','open','','271-revision-v1','','','2013-07-28 16:18:14','2013-07-28 23:18:14','',271,'http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/271-revision-36/',0,'revision','',0),(711,2,'2013-07-28 16:51:22','2013-07-28 23:51:22','<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6.gif\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-280\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/picasion.com_eb0158e8f970a015b6e5416909e2abc6.gif\" width=\"450\" height=\"343\" /></a></p>\r\nHere we have a drawing of a bride, eyes wide and looking from behind a bouquet. The central focus will be on her eyes and how to draw them. Hopefully after giving this a try, you will learn to include all of the little details that bring the eyes to life. So refer to the reference photo below, as well as my step-by-step drawings, and let’s draw some eyes!\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-343\" title=\"© Pzaxe | Dreamstime.com\" alt=\"http://www.dreamstime.com/-image16063419\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/dreamstime_xs_16063419.jpg\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 1: Make a Grid</h3>\r\nMake a grid of 6 squares across and 3 squares down. They can be any size you choose. Just make sure to use a ruler and make perfect squares if you are hoping for a more accurate drawing of the photograph. If you are good at sketching lines and can make boxes approximately the same size, that will work too for this drawing (since we are not trying to capture a likeness).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-698\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"01p bride eyes grid\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/01p-bride-eyes-grid.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 2: Outline of the Eyes</h3>\r\nOnce again, if you are using your grid for accuracy, pay close attention to placement. For example, the corner of the bride’s left eye (right side of the drawing) is approximately at the imaginary center line of its grid box (lined up with the arrow). Also, notice how the widths of both eyes are the same, and there is about one eye-width between the two eyes. This is a standard rule of thumb for drawing eyes looking directly at you, no matter who you are drawing! You can also include the tear ducts at this point.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-699\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"02p bride eyes outline\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/02p-bride-eyes-outline.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 3: Upper Eyelids</h3>\r\nDraw a thin line above each eye’s outline to represent the eyelids. Draw lines from the outer corners that will lead to the brows. Draw lines from the inner corners to the upper bridge of the nose.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-700\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"03p bride eyes upper lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/03p-bride-eyes-upper-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 4: Irises and Pupils</h3>\r\nUsing your grid and guidelines to help you, lightly sketch circles for the irises and pupils. If necessary, try a few times until you get satisfactory size and placement. Then, trace over them as carefully as you can to make them as round as possible. I like to use a <a title=\"Pickett Template 1204-i Circle Master\" href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/pickett-template-1204-i-circle-master/\">circle template</a> to make this tracing easier and more accurate. Remember, too, to make smaller circles serving as highlights (or catchlights).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-702\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"04p bride eyes irises and pupils\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/04p-bride-eyes-irises-and-pupils.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 5: Lower Eyelids</h3>\r\nRepeat the same process as you did for the upper eyelids to make the lower lids. Draw a thin line under the white part of the eye. This line is actually for the top rim of the lower eyelids, where we will place the lower eyelashes later. Underneath this, draw any characteristic lines that support the bottom of the eyeballs.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-703\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"05p bride eyes lower lids\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/05p-bride-eyes-lower-lids.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 6: Surrounding Features</h3>\r\nDraw the eyebrows, bouquet, face, ear, hair, veil, and any other features that you want to include. Put as much or as little detail as you wish. You can just use simple shapes, especially for the bouquet. It is okay if some of the drawing extends outside of the grid squares.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-704\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"06p bride eyes surrounding\" src=\"http://www.letsdrawpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/06p-bride-eyes-surrounding.jpg\" width=\"600\" /></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 7: Guidelines for Shading</h3>\r\nDraw light lines where you see shadows.
