In the art of drawing, as in any other creativity, there are certain rules that must be strictly observed. Therefore, depicting the face of the kind Grandfather Frost - the favorite fairy-tale character of children - one should take into account the proportions and features of the structure of the human face.
It is necessary
A sheet of paper, pencil, ruler, compasses, paints
Instructions
Step 1
Start drawing the face of Santa Claus with the outlines of the beard and head. Label these paths as two intersecting circles. Using a compass, draw one circle - the outline of the head - in the center of the sheet.
Step 2
The top edge of the second circle - the outline of the beard - should be slightly below the center of the first circle. The outline for the head should be larger than for the beard.
Step 3
Determine the center of the future face. To do this, draw a horizontal centerline in the middle of the entire drawing.
Step 4
Draw two identical circles above the center line. Note that the circles should be positioned on the top of the smaller circle. These circles define the eye contour.
Step 5
Contour the nose in the same way. It should be drawn with a circle that is larger than the eye circles. The contour of the nose crosses the center line only at the top edge.
Step 6
Draw an upward arc at the top of the head circumference. It will serve as an outline for Santa Claus's hat.
Step 7
Draw the future hat, keeping in mind that it consists of parallel curved lines. In this case, the lower part of the cap should completely cover the upper part of the head contour. Draw the cap of the cap as a curved line above the two parallel lines and a circle at the tip of the cap.
Step 8
Draw the beard and mustache for Santa Claus. Start drawing the outline of the beard from the center line down. As an option, the beard can be depicted in the shape of a heart, and the mustache in curved lines. Draw the mustache so that they are as similar as possible to each other on both sides.
Step 9
Draw the ears above the center line, just below eye level. Make sure your earlobes are under the center line.
Step 10
Draw the pupils in the eyes and add the eyebrows - two identical arcs above the contours of the eyes.
Step 11
Draw the main outlines with smooth lines so that they look like curls. Make the lines of the cap wavy.
Step 12
Draw a lock of hair on each of the temples.
Step 13
Erase all the extra lines that were auxiliary.
Step 14
Decorate Santa Claus with paints of your choice.
