And also, it is advisable to first study another lesson -.
See the structure of the eye in the picture below.
Eyelashes should be thick at the root and thin at the tips.
How not to draw eyelashes, see below.
Draw the outline of the eye with light lines. Then use a 2H pencil to draw eyelashes. Each eyelash looks like a comma, only upside down. Draw from the contour of the eye while reducing the pressure on the pencil by bending the line, the line will become thinner. With a slight movement of the brush, tear the pencil off the paper when you finish drawing the eyelash.
Using a 2B pencil, draw more eyelashes so that they are thick. draw the outline of the iris, pupil and highlight.
Use a 6B pencil to draw the pupil. Using a 2B pencil, draw the iris of the eye. For this we use . Please note that the top of the eye area is darker than the bottom, and the sides are also darkened. Use an eraser to create a light area at the bottom, then draw a few lines to create texture.
Using cross-hatching, create gradient transitions on the white of the eye, while the edges and the top of the white should be darkened. Hatch the edges of the upper and lower eyelids; closer to the outer corner of the eye, the tone transition becomes darker. Draw some thin lines to create blood vessels.
The anime style eyes are very beautiful. The eye pattern in this style is a little distorted, but very effective. The eyes are unnaturally large with long eyelashes; these are the eyes that girls dream of. Unfortunately, such eyes can only be seen in pictures; in reality, human eyes look different. However, it is not necessary to have huge eyes and long eyelashes, any person has very beautiful eyes, especially when he smiles. Any portrait of a person is, first of all, correctly drawn eyes. However, drawing eyes correctly is quite difficult, since it is very difficult to convey a person’s gaze in a drawing. Let's try to learn draw eyes person with a pencil, step by step.
1. First draw simple outlines
To make it easier for you draw eyes person, I decided to draw only one eye. But you can immediately draw two eyes by placing them side by side in a mirror image. To do this, draw both contours in your drawing at once. Please note that the eyes should be the same, but in a mirror position in relation to each other, otherwise they will look crooked and askew, which is naturally undesirable for drawing a girl’s beautiful eyes.
2. Add another outline to the picture
So far the lesson on how to draw eyes is more like a geometry lesson. But it will be easier for you to learn to draw correctly with these figures. Please note that the second contour is not a square, but a rectangle, its horizontal sides are longer than the perpendicular ones.
3. Draw the general shape of the eye
Now you will need to draw the shape of the eye, “stretch” the previous outline and draw an oval for the cornea of the eye inside the rectangle. All this is not difficult to do, it is only important to accurately mark where the corners of the eye will be located. Please note that if the angled lines are connected too far, the eyes will appear narrow.
4. The eye takes on a real shape
When drawing eyes, it is important to correctly draw the shape of the eye, to “maintain” all the proportions, and that’s why we used geometric shapes. But at this step, we will no longer need them, and they will need to be deleted. But first you need to change the shape of the eye, just like in my drawing. The left corner of the eye (in relation to you) needs to be brought out general outline and lower almost to the level of the lower part of the oval of the cornea. And on the contrary, move the right corner of the eye inside the contour at the level of the horizontal marking line. After this, use smooth lines to connect the corners into one whole. Now you can remove the extra contour lines and the drawing now has a real beautiful eye. This is a difficult step, give it the most attention.
5. Eye drawing is almost finished
Inside the cornea of the eye you need to draw a pupil. The pupils do not need to be drawn too large. Human eyes have small pupils in normal lighting. In the left corner, draw a bag for tears, and on top, a parallel line of the upper eyelid. Now we can say that you were able to draw the eye almost completely. All that remains is to draw the eyelashes and shade the drawing a little with a pencil.
6. How to shade your eyes with pencil
To finally draw the eyes you need to add eyelashes, but small ones. We're drawing normal eyes a person, and not the eyes of a fashion model from a magazine. Please note that eyelashes can have an unexpected effect on your eye and should be used with caution. Then you need to darken some areas of the eyelids, as shown in the picture. You also need to add a stroke around the eye where the eyelashes were, and outline the iris. And of course, color the iris with colored pencils.
7. Add Color to the Iris
Now, when drawing a person’s face, you can confidently and correctly do eye drawing.
Drawings of faces, human eyes, portraits - this is the most complex look fine arts. Learn to draw a portrait of a person, a person's eyes, even with a simple pencil, requires not only time to learn, but also talent. The difficulty of drawing a portrait of a person lies in the ability to convey the emotional state of a person, his facial expressions, the depth of his gaze, etc. The most important thing in a portrait is to correctly draw the person’s eyes.
Eyes in an anime drawing are the basis of this style. All pictures of girls drawn in anime style are distinguished by huge eyes - black, blue, green. But be sure to be huge and expressive. To draw eyes correctly, you must do this in stages, since eyes are the most important and complex element of any human drawing.
When drawing a person, you should see the entire future image from the expected lines and all you have to do is draw them. IN fine arts the most important thing is not the accuracy of the proportions and lines of the drawing, but the image of the main, most important thing. Very often, it is enough to accurately draw eyes that convey the mood and character of a person.

We all love to draw something when we're bored. One draws squares at a meeting, the other draws beautiful flowers while waiting for a phone call. And there are real peephole fanatics. Large and small, children's and women's, beautiful and simple, from two lines and one circle - almost all the pieces of paper on their table are drawn with such eyes. Without any tests or fortune tellers, it is immediately clear that we have a visual person in front of us.
“The eyes are the mirror of the soul” - any visual person will confidently support this phrase. We, people with a visual vector, are sure that by looking at the eyes you can learn absolutely EVERYTHING about a person. "Smart" psychological sites claim that with blue eyes Strict people are born, green people are born with romantic natures, and black people, of course, are witches. Life contradicts this real world shows that good people those we meet have different colors eyes, as well as evil ones. And although we so want to believe that the eyes are the mirror of the soul, in reality everything is completely different. Or rather, so, but only partly - the rule applies only to visual people. With everyone else, you can’t tell absolutely anything from their eyes.
IN obsessive desire There's nothing wrong with drawing eyes. In life, we, the audience, are very emotional. We constantly want to communicate with people, look into their eyes, experience feelings. But this is not always possible - you have to do something on your own, without people. Then the hand automatically reaches for a pencil or pen - and an eye, or a pair of eyes, appears. On paper. Drawn, not alive, but as a replacement, it will do.
If you type the word “eye” into a search engine and switch to picture mode, we will enjoy a huge amount peephole, different types and caliber. Photographed, drawn and even fantastic.
Viewers are ready to watch some of them for more than one minute - as if under hypnosis, we are enchanted by this beauty.
Of course, I would like to learn how to draw beautiful eyes myself. Ideally, in a huge variety. When we feel sad in our souls - sad or tear-stained eyes, when we are in love - eyes full of feelings, etc.
But not everyone did well in art classes at school, so they are often upset that they don’t have eyes that convey emotions. Or at least just beautiful.
In this article we will not teach you how to draw eyes like those in the graffiti below, but a couple simple tips, will allow you not just to draw eyes and be afraid that someone will see them, but to proudly display your drawings for everyone to see. So below you will find a simple tutorial.
How to learn to draw eyes
Like any real artist, start with the main thing - think about what you will draw with and on what. To give yourself real pleasure, buy yourself a couple of sheets of good specialty paper and a professional pencil (best in specialty store for artists). You can also buy colored paper and crayons or charcoal - for subsequent work, when you learn to draw beautifully.
It is best to start practicing drawing beautiful eyes by copying them from photographs or illustrations. Take any fashion magazine and find a portrait of a girl, for example, where the face takes up almost the entire page. Spare some paper and cut out an eye from a magazine. Place a piece of the picture directly on the sheet where you will draw. This will allow you to comply perfect proportion. And although this will be just a redrawing, at the end of the work you will be surprised at how talented you are at drawing eyes.
So, observing the proportions, easily outline the contours of the eye. 
Then proceed to the outlines of the cornea. Remember, in order for the eye to turn out alive, not a single detail should be neglected. Be sure to carefully examine the drawing and determine where the highlights are on the pupil - mark them immediately, at the moment of drawing the pupil.
Start redrawing smaller details. Many people don’t realize that drawing beautifully requires being very, very attentive to details. Do not put off this moment for later, look closely at the picture, look at the main details and carefully transfer them to your drawing.
Gradually you will catch more and more details. Many beginners are surprised that a simple lead pencil has so many shades, from light gray to black, and yet this is exactly the case. When drawing, do not experiment and do not deviate from the original - one stroke is wrong and the drawing will disappoint you.
The hardest part about drawing a realistic eye is:
Compliance with all proportions;
Drawing a realistic pupil of the eye;
Drawing eyelashes.
In this article we will teach you how to draw all these difficult moments.
Drawing realistic eyes- the task is not easy. At the same time, we have to draw eyes quite often. We start drawing the eye with a pencil from the main lines (they should be thin, as we will erase them later). Look carefully at the image; when redrawing, observe all proportions, as this is very important. Our eye looks a little upward. Once you understand the basic principles, you will be able to draw the eye the way you need.
We outline the pupil along the contour with a pencil (darken the contour) - we do this with a transition. The pupil is the darkest place, and closer to the outside it becomes lighter and lighter. A very soft pencil is best for these purposes.
Now let's draw inner part large circle. It is very important that the stripes and spots are arranged in a circle. Look at the picture below and try to repeat all the lines and spots exactly as in the picture.
Next, we darken and shade the entire surface of the large circle - try to achieve the maximum realistic effect. Notice that some areas of the eyeball are darker and others are lighter. This effect needs to be reflected in your drawing.
Completely fill in the pupil with a pencil and remove the auxiliary circular lines.
Let's shade some parts of the eye to add volume.
Draw the lower eyelashes. Do it exactly as in our picture. The eyelash line does not have to be perfectly straight. The eyelashes begin to grow under the lower guide line, rather than on it. If you are drawing an eye for the first time, it is best to repeat each eyelash. In the future, you will be able to draw eyelashes without visual cues.
Draw the upper eyelashes. Do it exactly as in our picture. The eyelash line does not have to be perfectly straight. The eyelashes begin to grow above the top guide line, rather than on it. Eyelashes are quite difficult to draw. Each eyelash is drawn separately - they will take a lot of time, but it is the well and believably drawn eyelashes that make drawing an eye with a pencil as effective as possible. For the best effect, sharpen the pencil and in this case preference should be given to a soft pencil.
We remove all the remaining hint lines so that the eye looks realistic. You should get something like this:

Many aspiring artists strive most to draw human faces. This is understandable: the face is the most important aesthetic component of the body, and orders for portraits are received much more often than, say, for images of feet.
If you have already more or less studied general structure the human head, the initial construction and basics of chiaroscuro, you can begin to master the details. The most expressive part of the face is, without a doubt, the eyes - it is these that we will learn to draw today.
So let's get started!
First sketch out the outline of your eye. Designate general shape, outline the tear duct and eyelid.
Then draw the outlines of the iris and pupil, then outline the outline of the highlights and lightly shade the iris, avoiding the intended highlights.
In the next step, shade the pupil (make it darker right away to separate it from the iris). Start drawing the veins on the iris, and also draw a falling shadow from the upper eyelid. Do not press too hard on the pencil so that you can gradually build up the tone in the right places.
Draw the veins on the iris more carefully, work out the shadows over upper eyelid, and also draw a shadow under the bottom one. Use a thin edge of the cut elastic around the eye: on this light line we will draw the eyelashes.
Draw eyelashes - and the drawing will immediately take on a completely different look. The upper eyelashes cross, forming “triangles”. The lower eyelashes are usually much thinner, shorter and sparser than the upper ones. It would also be useful to work out the texture of the iris in more detail: apply dark spots and strokes, and gently erase tiny light areas.
It remains to work on the details. Strengthen all dark places: the pupil, the contour of the iris (its upper border is in the shadow, therefore darker), the lower border of the upper eyelashes. The shadows above the upper and lower eyelids also need to be made a little darker. Pay attention to the highlights: they should be as light as possible. Add volume eyeball, slightly enhancing the shadows and highlights.
