BEGINNINGS:
The face is basic. Start with an egg shape for the head, and use some reference guidelines to keep the features in place. One guideline up and down a little to the right since we are looking at a slight turn of the head. Halfway down draw across a guideline for the eyes and halfway again to the chin draw a line for the nose and halfway to the chin from there draw another for the mouth.

DETAILS:
The neck connects where the ears are attached, so it is wide.

The eyes are almond-shaped. The eyebrows are dark and thick but taper to an elegant point.

The mouth is full so the upper lip is all shadow. it looks like the letter "M" but very spread out. The lower lip is only shown by the shadow underneath.

The nose is only shown by the shadow on the right side and a little mark for the nostril keep it simple. The line of the nose continues up to the eyebrow ridge.

Draw one shoulder higher and the other shoulder low for interest.

HAT:
The hat starts as a large letter "M" spread way over both sides of the head. The bottom is low over the brow. In the middle of the "M" shape draw a hump.  If the hat is too hard then draw a bandanna instead. They wore all kinds of hats, not just the ones you see in the movies.

Draw the hair as an outline around the head first and then fill in the details. Draw it like shapes not as lines.

CLOTHING:
The clothing is three parts. The undershirt which is closest to the neck, the blouse which has a long folded down collar, and puffy sleeves. The last is a bodice it is a dark vest that is laced up the front.

OVERVIEW
Learning to draw takes practice, so if you draw every day, you will get better. If your first sketch doesn't come out the way you expected, do not give up, you are learning, and your next picture will be better. I have a lot of how-to-draw worksheets, so come back every day for a while and do a few. You will be surprised at how good an artist you will be.

DRAWING TIP
Draw the skull and crossbones first, then draw the flag around them.

SKULL
The skull starts as a circle, and a large letter "U" for the jaw below. Use a guideline up and down the center to keep things straight.

The eyes are two circles at the center of the head. The nose is a triangle going between the eyes and down to the upper jaw, and then it finishes as an upside-down heart. Use the big circle to start the cheeks. The cheeks wrap around the bottom half of the eyes. The teeth are half way between the nose and the bottom of the jaw, use a guideline across to keep them even but they don't really need to be even. Draw the four in the front on the top and bottom carefully. but the ones on the sides are around the side, and you don't see them. They are just a little line going up and down.

BONES
The crossed bones are two parallel straight lines with circles on the ends. These leg bones have a large circle on the side of the top for the hip joint.

DRESS IT UP
Dress up the skull with a hat or bandanna. Give him an eye patch (If you have trouble drawing the eye, sometimes an eye patch covers up a mistake. Draw a dagger in his mouth.

Some flags had crossed swords instead of bones.

FLAG
After you draw the skull and crossbones, draw the black flag around them. Make the edge tattered and torn. Put a few cannon holes in it.

Take your time, and it will spread fear wherever you hang it.

How to Draw a Pirate Ship. Easy Worksheet

This is a how-to-draw pirate ship worksheet for the beginner artist. 

This is an easy ship to draw and perfect for the young or beginner artist. Since pirates used whatever ship they could get their hands on there really was not a special kind of pirate ship that they all had to look like. So, don't get upset if yours don't look just like you want it to there might have been one just like the one you made.

A WORD ABOUT PRINTING
This free printable drawing worksheet may be downloaded to your device and printed easily. if you have any trouble then CLICK HERE to visit my how-to-print page for some suggestions. Remember to use the greyscale setting so you get the shadows in the illustration.

BEGINNINGS
Draw the horizon first. The horizon is where the sky meets the ocean. I draw it first so the horizon is level all the way across the picture. If you goof it up just draw an island in the background but wait for the end for any changes like that.

The outline of the little pirate ship starts out to look like a shoe. The front is a curved line, then draw a second parallel line/ there are two since this is a big piece of wood on the old ships. The back of the ship is a line going mostly up and down but tilted back a little at the top. The bottom and top of the boat is a straight horizontal.

DETAILS
The masts are about as high as the body is long. My example has only two but you can have one or four if you like. I thought it looked better to keep it simple. The mast tilt back slightly. Draw them lightly so if you have to erase over some of them to draw the sails it will be easy. Don't forget the mast that sticks out at the front.

SAILS
The sails are basic shapes of square and triangles but slightly curved, they do not need to be perfect since in real life sails flap around in the wind.

EXTRAS
If you are happy with the basic design then go over it and erase any extra lines that needs to be cleaned up.
Add details like cannon holes, ropes, rudder, anchor, port holes, box like places where stuff would be kept, and maybe a pirate or two.
The waves far away, near the horizon line, are smaller and the waves in the foreground toward the bottom are larger.

FINISHING
Go over your drawing in a darker pencil or color pencils or markers.
If you take your time it will look good.

BEGINNING
I start most of my portraits with a circle and a large letter "U" for the jaw. It sometimes looks like a skull when I do this. I recommend a light line up and down the middle to keep the face in balance, and some lines across to mark off the eyes nose mouth. The lines for the eyes and nose will become the top and bottom of the ears. I use very few lines to indicate the face at this point; think of it like a map.

ASSESSMENT
Now set your pencil down and look at what you have drawn so far- now is the time to fix any problems.

DEVELOP FORM
He is bald so keep the top of the head clean. (I was going to put a bandanna on his head but changed my mind but you can try it and see if it works.)

The nose is three circles, a large one in the middle and two smaller ones on the sides. I use a lot of shading in drawing faces so shade the underside of the nose but not too dark. I drew circles for the eyes, even though I am going to hide one under the eye-patch I still drew the circle so I have things in the right place. His eyebrows are bushy to make up for his shiny bald head.

The mouth is open to show his one tooth. When people smile or talk their lips spread out and become thinner so I just did a shadow for the top lip and a little shadow for the bottom.

DETAILS
I save the fun stuff for last so last I put in the earring, the eye-patch, and the bandanna around his neck.
