In order to become a good artist, you need to train your hand all the time. Sketches of any objects or certain fragments of human figures should become a kind of exercise. For example, you have a question, how to draw a person’s nose beautifully? Feel free to take a pencil and try, the main thing is not to be afraid to make mistakes. After all, athletes also train almost every day in order to achieve success. Everywhere you need to make efforts, and often considerable.
If you just learn the basics of drawing and try yourself in the portrait genre, perhaps this lesson will help you figure out how to draw a person’s nose. We will not delve into complex anatomical details, but try to schematically facilitate this task for ourselves.
There are many different techniques and options for how to draw a nose . Each teacher and every art studio will teach you how to draw, using their own ideas and tips. Today we will use a not very complicated scheme and try to draw a person’s nose in full view. If this tutorial is easy for you, try sketching from other angles. Change the angle of rotation, so that you can "read" on your drawings whose nose it is: male or female.
So how to draw a nose with a pencil in stages?
1. We will not remind of pencils and paper here. We proceed to the drawing. The first step, as always, begins with a sketch. Draw a small circle - this will outline the tip of the future nose.
2. The next step will be the nose bridge. Draw two vertical lines up. Yes, not much like a nose. But be patient, it will begin to loom soon.
3. After the nose bridge, go to the wings of the nose. We outline future nostrils. You see, it’s better! Even in this form, the nose is easily guessed.
4. At this stage, you need to focus a little. Take a closer look at the drawing, you will see that from the wings of the nose you need to draw lines to the bridge of the nose. We outline the horizontal line of the nostrils - this will be the place of the future glare at the very tip of the nose. We lower the bridge of the nose to the line of the nostrils and slightly bend in the middle to the base of our original circle. It seems a bit confusing, but these lines will help you in the next step. Try to draw everything lightly, barely touching the sheet. Then you will need to erase the excess lines.
5. Now you can move on to creativity. We begin to designate the shadows, without which your drawing will remain flat. Try to work out an academic stroke at 45 degrees and put the strokes tightly together. Here, those lines that we outlined in the previous step will serve as a kind of boundaries.
6. Now you need to erase all the lines that bother you, correct the shadows, soften them with your finger or a piece of soft cloth, easily rubbing along the main lines. Do not get carried away too much, if you are not sure that you will rub the pencil correctly, skip this step. However, with an elastic band you can fix everything.
7. Make the shadows a bit more contrast, move the nostrils. Correct the bridge of the nose. This is the last step in how to draw a nose.
Your nose is ready! Now you can show others how to draw a nose.
In conclusion, I would like to remind you that even when drawing separate parts of a face or a portrait as a whole, try to keep proportions, pay attention to the angle of rotation of the head and, accordingly, the nose, do not forget about chiaroscuro. Practice, draw yourself, looking in the mirror. I wish you success in training!
