Drawing Tips #1

The EYE

Draw the circle of the eye first and then draw the eyelids around it as shown below. The iris and the pupil are captured as ellipses with the top and bottom of the iris covered by the upper and lower eyelids.

Eye - Step 1

To draw the eyelashes start at the outside of the eye and and make quick curved lines continually stroking in the direction of growth. The longest lashes are at the center of the eye.

Eye - Step 2

When shading the eyelid make light lines that follow the curve of the eyelid. This shading in the iris should radiate out from the pupil
