Step 1
Drawing states is a task that requires the use of creative imagination. Laziness can be depicted in the form of a certain creature, with all its appearance personifying the unwillingness to do anything. But it's easier to start by drawing a lazy person. Most often, laziness is associated with lying down or sleeping. A yawning person will also be associated with this condition. To better understand how to draw laziness, remember your own feelings at such moments.
Step 2
The easiest way would be to portray laziness in the form of a person lying on the couch. Most likely, his body should be completely relaxed, his arms should be powerlessly hanging from the sofa. To emphasize that this is exactly laziness, you can add special graphic symbols-explanations to the picture, for example, a stack of books or documents next to the sofa, glasses or a pencil that seem to have fallen out of your hand and lying on the floor, etc. The state of laziness can be emphasized by characteristic gestures: half-closed or closed eyes, a hand pressed to the forehead, yawning, stretching, etc.
Step 3
Practice drawing your intended subject or figure before you start drawing the painting itself. Getting started with a clean version, make a pencil sketch - if some element suddenly does not work, it will be easy to fix. To make the drawing more realistic, use more actively the techniques of light and shade - this also helps to emphasize facial expressions.
Step 4
Remember that the state of laziness is most often associated with internal discomfort, feelings of guilt. Therefore, it is permissible to make the expression on the face of the depicted person slightly suffering or guilty. The easiest way to depict this is with the eyebrows - let their inner parts be slightly shifted and raised. Remember that this will invariably wrinkle your forehead. These simple touches will make the picture of laziness extremely natural.
