Basic structure of lips:-
Before we begin to draw. Let’s understand the basic structure of the human lips. The shape of lips varies from person to person but the basic structure of lips remains the same.
we should focus on below points from drawing perspective.
- Upper lip
- Lower lip
- Philtral ridge
- Oral commissure
Step 1: Draw outline step by step
Draw three circles as show in the above picture. These circles are the guiding circle for drawing outline of lips.
Draw outline of lips. you can see that I have used the three circles to draw the outline. the upper lips has one circle and lower lip has two circles in it
In this step, eraser all the circles. now we proceed with the shading part. start with HB and 2B pencils
Step 2: Add details to the lips
Adding basic layer of shade and wrinkles of the lips. we must try to maintain the details in each layer of shades. we can used 2B and 4B pencils.
Continue the shading process and develop the lips gradually. Also add highlights to give a 3-dimentional feel to the drawing.
As we continue to draw and adding multiple layers of shadings. we are able draw a realistic 3-dimentional drawing. watch the Video tutorial to understand better and to improve your drawing.
