Hi all! Today we will tell you about how to draw a girl! This lesson will not be the first about girls on our site, but, apparently, our artists just liked doing a lesson dedicated to these beautiful creatures. Today, by the way, we have a girl drawn in a comic style on our agenda.

Older artists will surely remember the grotesquely luxurious wife of Roger, about whom a whole feature film was shot. By the way, this was the first film in which animated, drawn characters coexisted side by side with live actors. But, we digress. Let's start the lesson and find out!

Step 1

In our last lesson on how, you can read about all the features of proportions. female body. Now we will draw a stickman - a little man from sticks and circles, so they will come in handy for us. The main purpose of the stickman is to indicate the position of the character on , his posture and proportions.

So, about proportions. From super-duper important, we note that the height of a girl, like , is equal to the sum of the lengths of seven heads, only the girls are proportionally lower on average. A feature of the female figure is also approximately the same width of the shoulders and hips (in men, the shoulders are much wider). By the way, in men the shoulders are so wide that three head widths fit into their width, in women the ratio of shoulders and head width is completely different - this is very clearly shown on our stickman.

Of the features of the posture, we note the spine, which bends to one side, the head, which leans in the opposite direction, and the slightly sloping line of the hips.

Step 2

In this step, we have to give the stickman the necessary volume, but first we will mark out the face, because all the drawing lessons of people on our site are drawn and detailed in the direction from head to toe, from top to bottom.
So face. Let's mark it with a vertical line of facial symmetry, as well as several horizontal lines. The main and longest of horizontal lines there will be an eye line (it is slightly curved down due to the tilt of the head), below it will be the lines of the nose and mouth, and high above it - the hairline.

Let's get to the body.
The torso of the girl has the shape of an hourglass, which expands from above and below (chest and hips, respectively) and narrows in the middle, at the waist. Pay attention to the slight turn of the body - it is indicated by external contours and also by the fact that the chest on the right side of us slightly covers the arm. Another point - the legs, connecting with the body, form obtuse angles from the inside.

The arms should be graceful and thin, the only extension is present at the beginning of the forearm, at the elbow, but it is also insignificant. The arms in this step can be conditionally divided into three parts - the shoulder, forearm and hands.
In general, the main recommendation for this stage is to try to make all the curves of the body as smooth and feminine as possible, there should not be rough, voluminous forms or sharp corners.

Step 3

We continue our drawing lesson. Let's outline the girl's hairline. Conventionally, we can divide it into two parts - the one in front of the face, closer to us, and the one behind the face, it is located in the back of the head.
Pay attention to how these two parts differ in size: the one in front of us is larger than not only the second, back part, but even the head itself a little. At the top right, we outline a couple of small ornamental balls located on the rim.
The second action in our step will be sketching out the lines of the upper part of our girl's clothes. In terms of the location of this piece of clothing, be guided by the previously outlined lines of the arms, torso and hips. By the way, clothing lines should be drawn from bottom to top.

Step 4

Using the markup of the face, draw one eye, eyebrow and plump lips. Pay special attention to the shape of the eyebrows, eyes and their location - it is with the help of these factors that the effect of a slight forward tilt is given.
Another point - the lower lip should be noticeably thicker than the upper. The lower lip is almost straight, while the lower lip curves considerably.

Step 5

Erase the extra guide lines from the previous steps from the face and draw in the eye, eyebrow, and lips. Pay attention to the eyelid, the position of the pupil and the eyelashes - all these details form the look.

Step 6

Let's draw a part of the bangs that hides the girl's eye. Do not forget to work on the lapel, which is located approximately in the middle. Hair should be drawn in the direction from the roots to the tips.

Step 7

The rest of the hairstyle should be drawn in the same direction - from the roots of the hair to the tips. Do not forget about the slightly twisted ends of the strands, the rim and the decorations on it in the form of three skulls. By the way, the same jewelry is on the earrings, the heroine of the Monster High series.

Step 8

We wrap around our left shoulder, chest and neck. Pay attention to the lines that indicate the collarbone - they are not very large and noticeable, but they must be marked. When drawing the shoulder and chest, use smooth lines - the contours of the body should be feminine and smoothly curved.

Step 9

Erase extra guide lines from both arms and torso. The torso and arms should be edged with dense, confident contours, and the lines of folds on the fabric should be lighter. Again, do not forget that the body should have graceful feminine curves, there should not be voluminous muscles or rough contours.

Step 10

We circle the lower part of the girl's body and legs. Pay attention to the hem and folds located on the linen. With a couple of lines, outline the visible contours of the abdominals.

If you just liked this girl, you can always get acquainted with the same one, or with the one that will be even more beautiful. When meeting, try to surprise a girl, for example, by drawing for her - this act is very effective and memorable.

To know how to draw a girl with a pencil, it is not necessary to study art and be an artist. Any beginner can try his hand. It is enough to stock up on perseverance and gradually master some skills. It is important to remember the aspects described below.

Before starting the lesson, novice creators should stock up on materials such as:

You should not save on basic drawing materials, even if we are talking about the beginner. Poor quality materials can discourage interest in drawing and complicate the first steps in art. For beginners, the best choice would be products of the middle price category.

The proportions of the female body

The proportions of the female body differ from the male in some ways. In addition, at different times, different proportions were taken as the standard of beauty in the visual arts.

In our time, the following parameters of the female body are relevant for drawing:

1. To measure height, you need to calculate the height of a woman's head and multiply this parameter by 7-8.5 times. It is useful to know that a person's height is divided exactly in half at the point of the pubic articulation.
2. To calculate the width of the shoulders, an average of 1.5 head heights is required.
3. The width of the pelvic bone is directly proportional to the width of her shoulder, and the height of the pelvis in a woman is slightly lower than the height of her head.
4. The waist is on average equal to 1 head height.
5. To calculate the height between the base of the chest and the hip joint, you should divide the height of the head in half.

Axes and proportions of the face

Not everyone knows the tricks of how to draw a girl with a pencil. It is easy to explain this process step by step for beginners.

It is enough to know about the following proportions of facial features and about the universal axes on which you can rely in the process of building a face:

Face Drawing Scheme

Scheme:

How to draw a girl in profile

When wondering how to draw a girl with a pencil in stages for beginners, the answer must be sought in the same measurements and center lines as when drawing in full face. You should start drawing by drawing auxiliary lines in the form of a square. Its height should be 1/8 more than its width. All the main axes must be transferred to it, as if a full face was inscribed in it.

Then, one should inscribe an inclined egg-shaped oval in a rectangle between the axis on which the tip of the nose is located and the top of the entire square. This oval helps build the correct shape of the skull, the back of the head and the forehead.

That part of the side of the skull that connects to the neck should be tilted down.

• From the top extreme point of the oval, you should start drawing the line of the forehead, eyebrows, nose, mouth and chin. In this case, it is necessary to focus on the auxiliary lines drawn. The most protruding point of the forehead, closer to the eyebrows, is in contact with the edge of the square.
• The eyes are located on their axis. On the face in profile, the eyes take the form of an arrowhead. The round iris becomes a thin, elongated oval with a pointed top and bottom.
• The tip of the nose will protrude slightly beyond the square. The depression of the bridge of the nose falls on the same axis on which the eyes are located.
• Lips on a face turned in profile will look protruding, especially the lower lip. The line where the lips meet goes slightly down from the lips. Even if a person smiles, the line goes straight at first, and then smoothly rounds up.
• Ears when viewed in profile acquire C-shape. An arc runs along the edge of the ear - a thin cartilage. In addition, you should remember about the earlobe. When drawing female face ears are often covered with hair.

How to draw a girl in full growth

When drawing a girl in stages with a pencil, it is extremely important for beginners to observe the proportions of the body, which were mentioned earlier. Only observance of proportions will help to avoid the image of an awkward, unrealistic body.

To portray a girl in full growth, it is recommended to consider the following aspects:

• Image central axis. This axis coincides with the spine of the girl. At the initial level of drawing, it is recommended to draw a figure standing straight and level, in full face. Therefore, the central axis will also be straight.
• Torso. Schematically, it is recommended to depict it in the form of an inverted triangle. It should not be made too large or wide, as the female figure, on average, has more graceful shoulders and chest.
• Breast. To determine the correct location of the chest, another smaller one is entered into the triangle of the torso, pointing upwards. At its corners, you need to draw two identical circles, which are the chest.
• Hips. For the image of the hips, it is convenient to draw a circle, a small part of which goes to the lower corner of the triangle depicting the torso.

Using the received landmarks, you need to connect them with smooth, rounded lines. The figure should acquire the contours of the female body. Next, you need to draw the arms and legs. The length of the arms is just below the inguinal region.

Important points when drawing hair

Scroll:

• When drawing hair, it is important to pay attention to how the light falls on them. As a rule, the roots of the hair are in the shade, and at some distance from them, a highlight is noticeable on the hair. It should be left unpainted, or just add a few strokes around the edges. Next, it is important to pay attention to how the hair lies in the strands. In the drawing, you should combine small strands into larger ones and depict a glare on them the way light falls. Also, it is necessary to highlight the darker, shady areas so that the drawing does not look flat.
• Hair lies on the head magnificently, covering part of the forehead and cheeks, ears. Depending on the structure of the hair (curly, straight), they can be more voluminous or vice versa, smooth. It is important to notice the direction in which the hair grows. to reflect them most realistically.
• There are a lot of hair on a person’s head, but you should not depict them all. It is only necessary to show their general texture. Pencils of various hardness are used for shading hair. For shady areas, take the softest pencil and stroke with pressure. Hard pencils are needed to mark the hairs in the lighter parts and highlights. It is important that the strokes are confident and long. To do this, it is recommended to rest the hand with a pencil on the elbow, and not on the wrist, and draw from the elbow.

How to draw a girl from the back

Many people do not know how to draw a girl with a pencil step by step. For beginners, it will be easy to master drawing a girl from the back.

This is a simpler option, where you will not need to depict her face, chest and other complex details.

However, drawing a girl from the back has its own nuances:

• Should indicate the width of the shoulders and back. The overall shape will resemble a triangle, however, it should not be too large or wide. Otherwise, the girl will look too strong and masculine.
• The spine runs vertically in the center of the back, which should be reflected as a few strokes.
• At the level where the arms are attached to the body, shoulder blades are visible on the back. They should not be made too explicit. But if the figure shows a slender girl, it is advisable to mark the shoulder blades with light strokes.
• Loose hair often covers the back and neck. Drawing a girl from the back is a good opportunity to depict beautiful curls scattered over her shoulders.

anime style

The anime style involves a stylized image of the figure and face of a girl. As a rule, anime characters have exaggeratedly large and round eyes on a small face, a small mouth and nose (which may be indicated by a dash or a dot). The arms and legs are thin and slender. The girl herself is most often petite and graceful, with a thin waist. The legs are exaggeratedly long.

First you need to make a sketch, depict the head, facial features and hairstyle. Anime hairstyles suggest some carelessness and volume. Next, you should detail the sketch, adding details and paying attention to the location of the shadow and light in the drawing.

in a dress

A pencil drawing of a girl in a dress should begin with a phased sketch of the figure of a girl, as it were, without a dress. For beginners, this will help to correctly build her figure in clothes. It is advisable to take into account that clothing helps to hide those details that are poorly obtained. Therefore, it is important to choose a dress style that will cover the most complex elements of the pattern.

In addition, the style of the dress should fit the drawn girl and sit well on her.

When drawing a dress, it is important to consider the material from which it is intended to be made. Soft and delicate material will flow or fit the figure, dense will not deform along the lines of the girl's body. In addition, the direction and distribution of light should be considered in order to reflect soft lighting onto the fabric. So the picture will turn out more voluminous and naturalistic.

How to apply chiaroscuro with strokes

Hatching is an important element of drawing a girl with a pencil, and for beginners, first of all, it requires a step-by-step training. You need to learn how to apply strokes, changing the saturation from dark to light as softly as possible. The softer and smoother the transition, the better hatching is mastered.

To draw a girl, one should take into account the rules for the construction and proportions of her body and face. In drawing, training and observation are important, which will help to depict what you want with the greatest accuracy.

At first glance, it may seem very difficult, but do not be afraid, because we will apply two methods in one for drawing a girl, which will be very easy to navigate when drawing. This is a method of dividing the area into squares and simply drawing a circle separating the lines, the skeleton. You can use the two methods together, or you can use them separately, for example, just navigate through the squares without additional lines. Many artists, before drawing anything realistically, divide the sheet into squares. If you haven't tried it, be sure to try it.

Step 1. We draw a table, it consists of three vertical columns and seven horizontal ones, you can make the size of the square 3 * 3 cm, you can do more if the sheet of paper allows. Now draw a circle and guide lines that indicate the direction of the head. Who will only be guided only by squares, may not draw a circle.

Step 2. We draw the contour of the eyes, since we have a model for a girl, her eyes and lips are made up, so the shadows in the eyes merge with the eyelashes and we simply draw the contours. We draw the girl's chin, part of the ears, earrings on them, bang lines.

Step 3. We draw eyes, a nose and eyebrows at the girl. The girl's eyebrows are very light, so we first draw a contour, then paint over them with a pencil so that they are very light, lightly press on the pencil.

Step 4. We detail the nose, draw the lips of the girl.

Step 5. We draw hair at the girl.

Step 6. Those who draw in squares can skip this point, and the rest draw the skeleton of the girl's body as she sits.

Step 7. We draw a body and hands at the girl. First comes the full image of the girl along with the skeleton, then in the next two pictures, an enlarged version without the skeleton.

Step 8. Draw hair, fingernails and folds on the girl's dress.
