Something inspired the other day to sit down and paint the eyes, and tears with them. Probably winter melancholy does not leave me. Well, that generally there is a desire to draw :)
Here something has turned out, has achieved desirable softness in drawing, but all the same it is not pleasant to me, therefore we do not stop on reached:
I wanted the picture to be framed, it did not seem to be normal.
Day of the beginning I found the source:
And translated it into a black and white color, so that it would be easier to draw. I did not dare to paint color because I still have difficulties with colorist. And the soul is closer to black and white pictures.
In order to create this creation I needed:
• A5 size paper;
• Ruler;
• Coal;
• Hard pencil H;
• A pair of soft pencils 5B and 8B;
• Napkins, feathers;
Finely I shade the base of my face with a hard pencil and then rub it. I throw dark shades with a pencil 5B and the darkest 8B and also rub it, this is the area of the nose, the left area of the drawing, the eyebrow zone and under the eye. I leave the teardrop almost untouched, just throw a little shadow, as on the original photo. And easily I traced its outline. I add small hairs to the hairs on my eyebrows:
I detail my eye. With a soft pencil draw more hairs on the eyebrows and cilia. Max darken the eyelid.
I soften the dark eyelid with feathering. I draw a black pupil and leave a small white dot as a highlight. In small rounded strokes, I draw the lower cilia. I lightly detail the iris of the eye with a hard pencil. More boldly, I throw more shadows on the teardrop. And then I draw a charcoal background, and I also shade for homogeneity. But in the field of eyebrows and eyelashes I leave the light:
Even more obscure the iris of the eye, relying on the overall picture. And then you can look more closely at what I started this drawing for:
hank you for reading to the end. I will answer all questions of interest!
How do you plan? Is there something in the black and white drawings?
Inspire and inspire! All the best!
