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.

BEGINNING OUTLINE
The rustic garden gate is a stone arch. Draw the arch as a double set of lines so you have the inside and the outside in place. Sketch in the stone wall as parallel lines one for the top of the wall and one for the base. The path is wider at the bottom of the picture and more narrow where it meets the wall.

DEVELOPING DETAILS
Plan where to draw the flowers by drawing circles where they will look best. The flowers should go over the arch and may go all the way down one side but not both.  Once you have the flowers placed fill in the areas between the flowers with leaves.

The stones in the wall are different sizes and shapes, draw them lightly until you get a good design with a lot of interest. The stones in the arch are all the same size and are in two rows. Some of the stones will be hidden by the flowers.

Draw a flower pot on one or both sides of the gate.

The path is large squares but they are not even or the same size.

The iron gate is easy it is just drawn in lines. Draw an arch on the top and a square on the bottom. Put a guideline up and own the center and divide the gate into squares. Fill in the squared with twisted decorations. They do not need to be perfect since gates wear out and get all banged up.

A few wiggly lines make a background but keep the background simple.

If you draw grass then keep it random and clumpy so it looks real.

PROJECT NOTES.


DESIGN
The puppy is almost half head so draw the body like a square and the head as a circle that is the same size as the body. The legs start halfway down the body; they divide the body into thirds. The paws are big and are half of the legs.

A collar and dog tag can be drawn in at the beginning, so it does not get lost when drawing the fur later on.

FACE
The face is as simple as they come.
     * The eyes are halfway down the face from the top to the chin.
     * The nose is a little below the eyes, and the mouth is below the nose,
     * Do not need to worry much about the mouth since it is covered in fur.
     * The ears are on top of the head directly above the eyes.

FUR
The fur is many many short and long lines. The secret is to remember to draw the lines in the right directions. Think of a fan blowing straight at the center of the puppy the fur is pushed away outward from the center. All the fur is going outward.

Go over the outline of the puppy with short lines then go around with a second layer of longer lines giving the fur a matted texture. Add fur all over the body to fill it in. Use lines of fur to give shadow between the legs and areas of dark.

Advanced students may want to blend with a stub before adding the last layer of fur.

I hope you draw a masterpiece!

BEGINNINGS
The basic fish shape is a low wide arch on top that has a long slope at the back and an almost straight line for the bottom. Draw this lightly since it will need slight changes as we go on.

DEVELOPMENT
The dorsal fin is almost halfway on the back. The back edge of the fin is at the halfway point and is almost straight up but just slightly tilted forward. The flipper is about 1/4 of the way back from the nose. The nose has a very little bump keep it small or the whale will look like a dolphin. The tail is two narrow triangles they are thin since we are drawing them from the side.

FINE TOUCHES
The back curves slightly down and up and back down again at the tail it is only slightly. The bottom has a slight curve from the nose to the fin after the fin the line curves up to the waist and a little down for the tail then back up to connect to the fins.

MARKINGS
There are white marks on the chin going back to the fin. There is an oval mark midway on the bottom and a small white mark under the tail. The mark behind the eye is like an oval. Every whale has slightly different marks so don't struggle to get them just right.

COLORING
Start coloring the whale with gray and after you have an undercoating of gray use black on the body but leave the edges gray so it will look round.

START
Even though we are drawing an angel with wings, we will save the wings until we have worked out the body's position. Use an articulated stick figure with elbows, ankles, wrist, knees, and shoulders to pose the body.  For interest, have the near arm and leg pass over the far one.  Place the trumpet in this first step, so it is positioned well.

BODY
After the stick figure is posed, use ovals and loops to flesh out the body with the curves and contours of muscle. Add the wing nearest you as a triangle that is curved outward at the top point.

DETAILS
The face and hands are hard for some. The eyes are halfway down since the angel is blowing a trumpet to draw her eye closed; it is just a line with a slight downward curve. The mouth is like a sideways "W" with the trumpet in the middle. Draw a curve for the puffed-out cheek.

The hands are easy if you think of them as mittens. The thumb on the near hand is inside toward the face, and it is behind the trumpet. The hand holding the trumpet is like a square with the thumb coming off the side. The far hand is flat, and the thumb is down.

The feet can be hidden inside the long robe if they are too hard to draw. They have a round circle at one end attached to a triangle bent slightly away from the body.

The wings are like triangles with feathers on them. To help space the feathers evenly, mark off the spacing before you draw them in.

FINISHING TOUCHES
Draw the robe as flowing lines that gracefully go around the body.  Add the far wing by drawing only a few feathers showing behind the front wing and the wing's top, giving the far wing less detail than the near one. Draw the headband on the angle. The hair can be flowing waves. If you shadow the far wing, the hair will look brighter.

BEGINNINGS
Keep it simple at first and draw a light outline of the project you want to draw. The house is seen from a corner angle; this makes it look more interesting than just the front. The horizontal lines of the roof, windows door, and bottom of the house tilt a little toward each other slightly as if they continued away to a place where they touched.

DEVELOPMENT
Use guidelines to outline the windows and the door so they are all even. Lightly draw a checker grid for the shingles on the roof so that when you draw the round shingles, they go in straight rows. Roughly sketch in the door, the walkway, and the chimney.

FINISHING TOUCHES
Draw shutters next to the windows and decorate them with gumdrops. Outline the house with gumdrops. Make the path out of peppermint suckers, and then draw candy canes beside the walkway. Draw lollipops for a garden and gummy bells for bushes.

Last, add a background so the house will have a world of its own.

I hope you create a masterpiece!

DETAILS
Draw the flower in two steps the first is the larger petals. The first two start as two curving lines like large parenthesis on the outside edge, then connect with a line between them shaped like the letter U at the top and an upward curving lines below. Behind the first two petals are three petals shaped like rounded diamonds, their points form a triangle.

The flower has a center made of three leaves, two that curve out and back in above and one curves down and back up below. Start with three inward curving lines that almost make a circle. Connect the lines with the lines that curve inward and back out. There is a little upward edge on the bottom petal that looks like the letter U.

FINISHING TOUCHES
Add large leaves that are drawn with two curving lines that come to a point. Shade the flower pot to give contrast.  Shade the background to make the flower stand out.

 PROJECT NOTES.


BEGINNINGS
Start with a circle for the head and an oval for the body, and then use a stick figure technique to place the arms and the feet in position. After the posing looks right use ovals to give the arms and legs thickness.

FACE
Use two guidelines, one going up and down the center and one across the center to help keep things even. The muzzle is like a smaller circle on the lower part of the face it should be centered on the guideline. The eyes are a little below the guideline going across. The nose is like a diamond sideways with two dark dashes for the nostrils. The ears are on the top of the head and are slightly like a half-circle. The eyes are black and have a little white rim around them. The top of the head has a slight peak or point to it.

DETAILS
The paws are covered with fur and you do not need to do more than the basic shape. The feet have five claws, below each claw is a round pad.

SHADING
Start shading with gray not black. After you have all the areas done in grey then use black for the shadows and the darker areas.

Even though it takes hours, I create these How to Draw Worksheets because I believe that when we have been blessed, it is so that we can become a blessing to others. I hope you enjoy these projects and they help you.


Do some concept drawings first on a separate piece of paper. Start with the basic shape of a car or a rectangle. Draw lightly so you can erase later.

Roughly sketch in some of the shapes of an airplane, like the rudder stabilizer, and cockpit.

You can experiment with random shapes; after you sketch a few shapes over the design ask yourself what that looks like and work it in. An oval on the side could be a rotor or a jet engine.

After you have gotten your ideas worked out then you can put them together for your final project.

Use shadows to give it roundness, draw a background and create a world or city for it.

These worksheets are free to print but your small gift will help keep this blog going. 

I hope you create a masterpiece!
