The witch is one of the most attractive and vivid images in many mythologies of the world. Witches have been described by many writers and poets, films are made about them, they are portrayed in paintings. To draw a witch is both difficult and simple at the same time. In the minds of every person, the standard image of a witch has taken root, so to speak. If we take into account everything that people are used to associating with this particular character, then it will be quite easy to draw a witch recognizably.
Instructions
Step 1
You should start with the attributes of the witch. Everyone is used to the fact that the witch flies on a broomstick and wears a pointed hat. You can draw any female figure and equip it with these two objects. The option is absolutely win-win, everyone who looks at the picture will have the necessary associations. In addition, the brim of the witch's hat is quite wide, so you don't have to pay much attention to drawing the face, which is very convenient for those who are not good at drawing. It is easy to draw a hat: schematically, it consists of a narrow oval and a triangle.
Step 2
Traditionally, it is customary to depict witches with red and green eyes, which also evokes standard associations. Take advantage of them, and your witch will become recognizable to any viewer. Moreover, the more mysterious, wise and frank the gaze of the red-haired beauty, the more she looks like a witch. Ryzhina very often gives a woman some demonism. As for the colors that are best used, these are black, red, all kinds of shades of blue (since this character is more of a nightlife).
Step 3
If you want to create the image of a beautiful witch, then the facial features must be correct and proportional, the figure is also drawn according to all the relying canons (the head is 1/8 of the length of the whole body, the width of the shoulders should not exceed double the width of the head, the hand reaches the middle of the thigh, the foot is 1/7 of the total height). For convenience, so as not to violate the proportions, you can divide the sheet into eight equal parts, inscribe the witch's head in the uppermost segment and build the rest of the figure relative to the head. As for the face, here special attention should be paid to the eyes. To heighten the effect, you can draw a witch with narrow pupils, like a cat, the color of the eyes can also be non-standard: bright green, purple, red.
Step 4
A beautiful raging witch is just one of the images familiar to our minds. The second is diametrically opposite to the first. This is an old woman, hunched over and with a long nose (on which warts sometimes grow). It is even easier to draw such a witch, because her image is caricatured and does not require anatomical precision.
A long nose in combination with the same broom and hat is what one hundred percent will allow you to recognize the witch in the image.
Step 5
Pay special attention to the texture of the face, carefully draw wrinkles and warts, you can not be afraid to make them frankly striking and contrasting. You can draw sharp ears for your witch, the size of which significantly exceeds the proportions we are accustomed to. Traditionally, the length of the nose and ear should be the same, they make up 1/3 of the entire face. For a cartoonish effect, you can increase them to about 1/2.
