BEGINNING
Start out by drawing lightly at first so you can erase later.
Keep it simple at the beginning.
Use a basic stick figure to work out the pose.
Use a guideline across the shoulders to keep them level. Use a guideline across the waist to keep the elbows on the level. 

DEVELOPING
After you have the pose the way you want it, then draw around the stick figure to give the body its shape and then draw the clothes over that.

The head is an oval. Do not draw the hat until you get the features in the right place. Use three guidelines to help place the eyes, nose, and mouth. The first guideline is halfway across. The second is halfway down from the first, the third is halfway down from the second.  

Draw the hat through the top of the head, not above it. 

DETAILS
Keep the hands simple. Draw around the stick figure fingers. They are gloves,     so they can be fat and shapeless mittens.

FACE

Go over the oval shape of the face to give sharpness to the jaw and cheeks. Keep the face simple. The nose is like a letter "V," The mouth is a few lines. The eyes are two arches with dark half-circles for the pupil. Make the hat uneven like it is old and beaten up; this will give the drawing character. 

Erase the extra lines and rework the lines you like. It may be a good idea to trace the design onto another paper to finish the project. Many artists do this, sometimes two or more times on a project. 

FINISH

Color or shade the line drawing after you finish. When you color or shade in the picture, look for areas that you can leave white for contrast. Be careful to have some very dark areas and some very light areas, and some medium-dark areas.

I hope you create a masterpiece!

Thank You

DEVELOPING
After you have the pose the way you want it then draw around the stick figure to give the body its shape and then draw the clothes over.

DETAILS
Keep the hands simple, think of drawing them like mittens. Remember, thumbs point inward on hands facing down and thumbs point outward on hands pointing up.

Keep the face simple, the nose and eyebrow form a letter "S" Use a short line for the upper lip and a shorter line for the lower lip. The eyes are two slightly curving lines since the wounded man is not awake and the hero is watching his step.

Color or shade the line drawing after you finish.

Do not forget to put in the background like a battle scene or a dead monster. Draw the ground around the hero's feet so he doesn't look like he is floating.

BEGINNINGS
Start by drawing lightly so you can erase later.
Use an articulated stick figure to get the pose right, an articulated stick figure has elbows and knees hips, and other joints.

After you have the pose right then go around the stick figure to give it the form of a body.

The hand only shows the thumb. Draw it as straight lines on the backside of the hand and thumb and curved lines on the palm side.

Keep the face simple. Use a guideline down the center to keep both sides of the face even. Use a guideline across the middle to know where to put the eyes.  She is looking down so just draw the eyes as curving lines The nose is only a line on one side and a shadow underneath. The mouth is a shadow for the upper lip and a shorter shadow under the lower lip. the neck connects at the back of the head by the ear.

THE DRESS
Draw the dress after you have the form of the body right.
The dress should be tight at the waist. The dress flows with the body and should look like it is turning with her so start with guidelines to show which way the dress is turning.

The ruffles are in three or more rows. Use guidelines first to plan where they are. Draw rounded zig-zag lines for the ruffles then. Starting at the top of each rounded curve draw short lines going up following the direction of the flow of the dress.

Use shading technique to give the dancer roundness. Put shadows under the ruffles.

If you color the picture remember the traditional Spanish dancer wears a red dress.

You are welcome to print as many as you like.

PRINTABLE PROJECT NOTES

BEGINNINGS
Start with an articulated stick figure, that is a stick figure with the major joints- it looks like a skeleton. Draw the head as an oval. Since Poincianas was a youth we draw her head a little bigger than an adult might have been.  One shoulder is higher than the other.  One leg is straight down and the other is crossing behind it as if she is walking. The forward leg is more centered as she is putting her weight on it. The foot is a large circle at the heel and a smaller one at the ball connected by a line.

FILLING HER IN
Over the stick figure draw ovals to build up the thickness of the arms and legs. The shoulders taper down slightly and are slightly rounded where at the shoulder joint. The bicep (upper arm muscle) is short and rounded, the triceps (at the back of the arm) is long. The arms are narrower at the wrist. Draw an oval for the calf muscle but the front of the leg is straight. Go around the shapes to give the lines a graceful flow.

FACE
Keep the face simple. Use guidelines to keep things even. One guideline goes down the center but slightly to the side since she is turned a little. Use a guideline halfway across for the eyes, then halfway between the eyes to the chin for the nose, and halfway from the nose to the chin for the mouth.
FAR EDGES.
She is turned slightly so the far cheek is showing. Start with straight lines; Down and out slightly for the edge of the forehead, curved in slightly for the eye socket, out sharply for the cheek, down and inward for the far jaw and sharply up and back to the ear for the near jaw.
EYES.
Use a curving line for the top of the upper eyelid and draw a circle below it for the eye, the top of the circle will be cut off by the upper eyelid.  The eyebrow is an arch that is thicker near the nose and thinner as it goes toward the edge of the face.
NOSE
The nose is turned up slightly since she is still young. Start with a long line from the eyebrow and go down and out, then a short line back in. Keep a space between the nose and the lip.
MOUTH
The upper lip is all shadow. it is like the letter "M" spread out.  The lower lip is indicated only with a short curved shadow underneath.
HANDS
Keep the hand simple. If your drawing is small just draw them like mittens. If you have space to give the hands detail use the method described above of drawing a hand skeleton first and then going around the lines to fill them out.
FEET
Go around the circles and lines of the stick figure to get the basic shape of the foot, and add a few lines as if the stitches of moccasins.

CLOTHING AND STUFF
Historical resources show the Indians of that time wearing simple leather skirts or toga style dress, so keep it simple to be historically accurate. There were simple patterns painted on their clothes. The is evidence that they wore a band around the head with feathers on the front. The bodies were painted or tattooed with circles, dots, and lines. The skirt would have a split on the sides so she could run and hunt.

DO THE HAIR LAST
Give her long black hair that has some shiny areas in it.

PRINTABLE NOTES

FIRST STEPS

Begin by drawing lightly so you can erase later. Draw the basic shape of the wagon as two rectangles since it is viewed at an angle, but these are not true rectangles since they taper slightly on the outside to allow for perspective. The top is begun as two circles connected by a line at the top. Some will be erased later.

Draw a guideline for the ground so the wheels and steps all lineup.

Add two circles for the wheels. One is bigger than the other since the smaller on is on a turning axle and is lower to the ground. The wheels are below the wagon and not beside. Draw the wheels as two circles so there is an inside edge and an outside edge.

The door has a curved top. Use a long horizontal guideline for the bottom of the shutters and the top of the bottom of the dutch door.

The steps are curved.

ADDING DETAILS

Add a hub cone at the center of each wheel. There are six to eight spokes.
Draw the shutters on the door as half arches pointing away from each other.
The door bottom is divided into sections, draw them as squares.
The side of the wagon has wood squares.
Use two lines to draw each step.
The back has wood slats going up and down draw them as vertical parallel lines.
There is a stovepipe that looks like the letter "T" coming out of the top.
Under the wagon are wooden axles and scissor springs, draw the axles like long rectangles and the scissor springs like the letter "V" sideways 

FINISHING TOUCHES
Put drapes in the window. Draw a person standing inside looking out. Have some camp stuff sitting around like a campfire, buckets, pots, and pans.
Draw a background like a row of bushes and a row of trees. Have some tree branches and leaves hanging over the wagon.

Hand the hand starts out boxy. The thumb points up, draw three short lines inside the boxy shape from the outer edge to halfway across, it will look like fingers

FACE
Keep the face simple.  Use guidelines to keep things even. She is turned 1/3rd away so you see more of one side of her face than the far side.  The eyes are halfway down from the top of the head to the chin. Just use a couple of curved lines to give her a look of concentration.  The nose is only a line starting at the eyebrow and going down at a curve and ending with a dash for the shadow underneath. The mouth his just a dash for the upper lip and a short dash for the shadow under the lower lip.

HANDS

CLOTHING
The clothing is loose and flowing use lines to show the curves of the cloth.

DETAILS
Draw lots of jewelry with big earrings, necklaces bracelets, and chains.  Do not forget the Emerald on the chain around her neck that is where she gets her name.  Draw circles for the coins that are sewn into the edge of her dress and shawl. The Gypsies would wear a headscarf that covered much of their hair.

There is a second skirt or apron around the waist.  If you want to draw feet then do not give her shoes.  Her blouse will be white, but she has a black vest over it.  A shawl or wrap will go over the shoulders or around the back. Give the skirt lots of folds or pleats.

The cheeks are like bracket symbols, one on one side and one on the other.

There are more ways to draw a face, but this is simple and ideal for young artists.  Drawing a beautiful face takes practice, so draw every day, and soon you will be making beautiful pictures.  I have other projects like this, so come back often and try a few more.  If your artwork is not perfect this time, do not give up. Just keep at it, and you will be making perfection before too long.

BEGINNINGS
Start by drawing lightly so you can erase later. Draw an oval for the head, then divide up the oval with guidelines vertical in the center, and another one horizontal halfway down. The guidelines help keep things even and not crooked.

DEVELOPMENT
The eyes are on the halfway mark, they are about as far apart as they are each wide. The top of the eyes are an arch but the bottom curves up and down and back up. The eyes are outlined in dark. Draw the shiny spot before you draw the iris or pupal. Use a line above the eye to show the fold of the eyelid.
The nose is wide, use two lines like a parenthesis for the wider parts and two curving dashes for the shadow below.
The lips are three lines. Draw the one in the middle first, it is like a flattened letter "v," the bottom lip is a wide curve, like the letter "U" the upper lip is like a flat letter "M"
The Neck is wide and the shoulders slope downward slightly.

TURBAN, CROWN, NECKLACE
The turban is a folded cloth and can be a lot of wiggly lines over the top of the head going around the head like a frame. The crown can be simple just two lines across the turban. There are gold coins hanging down off of the crown and turban, draw them as circles.
The necklace is a bunch of lines that go around the neck. Use guidelines to keep things even and straight.
The hair is black but put some shiny lines in it.

Use shading technique to give the face a rounded look.

BEGINNINGS
Use the stick figure technique to draw a man standing. Use circles for the major joints and bend the arm at the elbow. Add in the line for the spear and a large rectangle for the shield.

DEVELOP FORM
Around the stick figure add the thickness of the arm and the leg. Draw the torso as a boxy rectangle.

HELMET AND ARMOR
The helmet is a half-circle on top. It has a bold line across the brow. The helmet has two side guards that cover the cheeks, they are drawn with curved lines. Behind the helmet is a neck guard, only the edges show out of the sides like narrow triangles.
The body armor is a series of rectangles that come over the shoulder and another set of rectangles that wrap the body. They have buckles in the middle.
The kilt looks like a skirt that goes almost to the knee. It is leather strips that look like long rectangles

HAND
The hand is wrapped around the spear so you are looking at the back of the hand. Draw it like a square but curved outward no the side toward the solder. The thumb is on the backside of the spear just draw a half circle where it comes across.

WEAPONS
The spear has two parts, the wooden shaft, and the metal lance. Use a ruler or straight edge to draw this so it looks good.
The short sword hangs on a belt that comes down from behind the shield. The sword is a rectangle and goes from the waist to the knee, at the bottom is a triangle. The hilt is simple, a circle on the top, the grip curves inward slightly and there is a short crosspiece.
The shield has a metal edge, draw the edge as two parallel lines that go around the shield. In the middle of the shield is a metal round piece, draw it as a circle with a square around it. The shields were decorated, so draw lightning bolts or eagles or lions on it.

FACE
Keep the face simple. Make the jaw and chin square. Draw eyebrows as a thick straight line. Draw the eyes as straight lines with dots below. The nose is a line going down and over a little bit. The mouth is a straight line with a little downward dash at the end.

BEGINNING
The guard is a simple figure of an adult. Start with a stick figure to get the height and proportions right. Do not draw the uniform or the hat at this time. The shoulders are wide and the waist is narrow the feet are spread slightly apart. The right arm, (which is on the viewer's left), is slightly bent. Draw a guideline for the weapon.

DEVELOP THE FORM
Around the stick figure draw the form of the man.

FACE
The hat covers everything above the eyebrows. The strap of the hat goes over the face and under the lower lip, so the chin shows below the strap. The eyes are straight ahead. Keep the face simple.

UNIFORM
The jacket has a white belt at the middle slightly above the waist. The collar has golden leaves on the sides but in the small drawing just do a triangle-ish shape and color black around it. The sleeves have square decorations going down at the cuff. There is a black background at the cuff. There are buttons to the right of the seam. The shoulders have golden decorations across the top. Many guards have medals won for bravery in combat, draw it as a circle with a triangle above and a thin rectangle above that. The pants are black.

HANDS
The hand holding the weapon is a line for the thumb that goes inward and back, the fingers is two lines that make it look like the letter C laying down. The other hand is mostly hidden by the sleeve but a line can show the fingers facing inward.

The shoes are very black and very shiny, so before you color them in outline a few shiny spots and make sure you leave them white.

I hope you create a masterpiece!

Our version of St Patrick has a short bishop's hat and a beard. The temptation is to draw them too soon and not have a well-developed face as a result, so save the beard and hat until the face is satisfactory.

BEGINNINGS
Start drawing light so you can erase later. Draw the basic shape of the face as an egg or oval. Draw three guidelines across the face. The first will divide the face in half from the top to the bottom, here is where we will position the eyes. Draw another guideline halfway frrm the first to the bottom for the nose and draw one more from that to the bottom for the mouth. Use a guideline down the center to help keep things even.

FACE
EYES. The eyes touch the bottom of the first guideline, they are evenly spaced apart and have as much space between them as they are wide. The iris are circles, draw them completely then draw a curving line over the top of them for the upper lid. There are a lot of wrinkles around the eyes since he is old.
NOSE. The bottom of the nose dips down so start it as a "U" shape. On both sides draw parenthesis ( ). Use shadow technique to shade under the nose and on the side of the face away from the light. The ridge of the nose is narrow but do not draw it- use shadow technique on the side away from the light to indicate this.
MOUTH.   The upper lip is covered by the mustache so only the bottom lip showing. The bottom lip is like two ovals sideways that partly overlap in the middle. The bottom is in shadow so use shading technique.
EARS. The ears are partly hidden by the long hair only the bottom lobs show they are just a pair of curving lines
WRINKLES. There are deep wrinkles around the mouth, and light wrinkles under the eyes, beside the eyes, between the eyes, and across the forehead.

BEARD AND HAIR
The beard is a series of wavy lines going down to an pair of uneven points. The hair is wavy and starts on the forehead above the eyebrows and go out to beside the ears and curls under below the ears. Draw the hair with wavy lines.

SHADING
The light comes from one side and makes shadows on the other this give it depth.

CLOTHING
The bishops hat is shaped like a diamond. It is divided in third with a cross in the middle. Color it green. He has a robe and a cloak they are green with white.
