In order to draw funny faces, you need a simple pencil, a sheet of paper, an eraser and a good mood. To create such a picture, you must be able to draw an oval or circle.
The first thing you need to start with funny faces is to draw a circle with a pencil. It’s impossible to draw a perfectly even figure, even artists cannot do this. Therefore, do not be upset if it is a little uneven - even better.
We draw a funny face
So the circle is already drawn. Inside the figure, we depict subtle auxiliary lines, which will subsequently correctly position the eyes, nose and mouth. Draw a circle in the middle of the circle - this will be the nose. Then we depict the eyes and add nostrils on the nose. Then you need to circle the circle with light lines. Next, we draw in more detail the eyes, nose, mouth, ears, cheeks (small ovals) and eyebrows. Since our face is smiling, we draw small wrinkles at the edges of the eyes - this will give it a mood. Then we depict hair or some kind of funny hairstyle. We remove the auxiliary lines, and that's it - the picture is ready.
In order to draw funny faces, you need not be afraid to experiment. You can invent your eyes, mouth, nose, ears, hair. Thus, each face will be special, unique.
Funny faces with paints
We take paints and a sheet of paper. We draw several circles on the sheet with yellow paints - so that there is a distance between them. Dip the brush in the paint and make strokes from the center of the circle and beyond, so that the picture resembles the sun. The remaining circles are also decorated, preferably with colored paints. We take a brush thinner and depict faces. They can be sad, funny, ruddy, surprised, with freckles, glasses.
Draw with a ruler
Let's try to find out another option on how to draw a funny face. We start the picture with the image of the oval. Using a ruler, you need to divide the figure into horizontal and vertical lines, crossing in the middle. The vertical must also be divided into 6 segments and draw horizontal lines (the top will indicate the forehead line). The central line is responsible for the location of the eyes and nose. The next line denotes the nose, and the bottom is the mouth. The first thing you need to draw a face with is the eyes in the form of two fish without tails or with them, for the image, for example, an old man. We measure the symmetry of the eyes with a ruler relative to the vertical line. We draw a nose in the form of a triangle. Two of its corners should be with the inner corners of the eyes on the same vertical, and the third on the bridge of the nose. We draw eyebrows in the form of two large arcs above the eyes from the nose bridge and add two smaller lines - these are the eyelids, which we draw from the corners of the eyes.
The mouth can be drawn in the form of a minus sign and twice as wide as two noses, so that its tips are above the level of the center of the eyes.
Next, we draw more clear lines around the eyes, slightly bending their contours, paying special attention to the upper line, which should be slightly darker than the bottom. Do not touch the eyelids. Eyebrows depict an arbitrary shape. The thickest part of the eyebrow should be above the center of the eyes. We round the lower part of the nose and put two dots under it to get a “patch”. Draw them with rounded lines depicting the nostrils. We also portray the mouth and lips arbitrarily. They are of different shapes: chubby, narrow, and even curved. To do this, draw a mouth, like eyes, with a fish, draw a line in the middle, and raise its corners so that the face smiles. We draw the ears, where the upper corner is at eye level, and the bottom is on a par with the nose. We erase unnecessary lines - and the funny face is ready.
Draw a caricature
There is another way to draw a funny face in stages. It's about a caricature. Before starting work, you need to look carefully at the proportions of the
face of the person you want to portray. We determine the distance between the nose, mouth, eyes, ears, eyebrows, hairline, chin, etc. Next, mentally divide the face into equal parts along the lines of proportions. If the face does not have equal proportions, divide it into identical parts by the vertical center lines along the pupils, corners of the eyes, and also draw them along the edge of the chin, hair growth, tip of the nose and eyebrows.
If when creating a caricature you want to change the proportions of the face, then you need to change not only one element, but all so as not to disturb the harmony. For example, when reducing the nose, you need to increase the distance between the eyes, expand the face, reduce the size of the head. If you move your mouth higher, almost right next to your nose, then you need to completely remove the chin. In the case of a decrease in the nose and "pulling" it to the eyes, you need to increase the mouth and lower face.
In order to portray funny faces, you can experiment with variations in the shape of faces depending on their size. This will help you quickly understand the basic principle of creating a cartoon.
