How Do You Draw Faces In Pencil?
Pencil sketching allows you to erase unwanted lines, make light or dark drawings and add texture to renderings. Handy instructions are available to help you shape and form the head and face, keeping it in perspective. Use an egg shape or round sphere to begin with. Dividing the face into halves will give you the placement you need. Draw an egg-shaped oval sphere on the paper. Use the ruler to draw a light line down the center of it. Draw a horizontal line through the center. Divide the halves again. This will give you four segments to the face. The eyes will be placed on the center horizontal line, equidistant from one another, as will the eyebrows. The nose and ears are placed along the vertical and horizontal center line. As a rule of thumb, they will both be the same length. Place the mouth one-third of the distance between the nose and the end of the chin. Notice that the mouth does not have a straight line through it to define the lips, but instead will have a slight dip and curve
