Which is suitable even for those who do not have artistic talent. I decided to start with a simple one: draw a human figure in stages. I opened the book, leafed through it and realized that I couldn’t just look, I had to draw.

What is this Lutz and what is the essence of his method

Edwin Lutz came up with a drawing method where complex objects are divided into simple shapes. That is, we draw a square, add a few strokes and get a cat. We draw a tick, and after six steps a raccoon looks at us.

Walt Disney learned from Lutz's books. Partly thanks to his technique, our favorite characters appeared: The Little Mermaid, Snow White, Cinderella.

Draw a female figure

1. So, I have sheets and pencils. And a little more time is enough.

2. We draw just such a squiggle.

In fact, the bottom part should be a little smaller, but I got this.

3. So, it turns out that the squiggle is the future head.

So let's add the neck.

4. We finish drawing from below such a semi-oval.

It should be longer: my hand just trembled. Now I'm not sure the drawing will succeed.

5. From the semi-oval, draw down the hem of the skirt.

Our lady will be in a long dress. I think that after I learn how to draw a classic outfit, I will dress a woman in something more modern and magnificent.

6. The next step is the arms and legs.

What thin arms and asymmetrical legs I have ... Nothing - I'll fix it later.

7. Finishing the hand (the one that lies on the dress). Adding elements to clothes.

From above we draw the front part of the hat. The woman seems to be taking shape.

8. Draw the belt, gloves, hair and face. Here you can experiment: change the hairstyle, facial expression, the length of the gloves.

We have a line drawn by hand. What will it be: a cane or an umbrella?

9. Hooray: it's an umbrella! We shade hair, gloves, shoes with color, you can paint over the dress a little. Add details: buttons, pattern and feather on the hat.

Here is such a sophisticated and sweet lady. I think it's great. I drew no more than five minutes. By the end of the work, fluffy support came running - the cat Simba.

I drew according to the scheme of Edwin Lutz, which is in the book "What to draw and how to draw". Here is the diagram.

Magic! To be honest, I doubted myself: I thought that it would definitely not work the first time and I would have to redo it. But even from a white sheet, a lovely lady is looking at me, to whom I have already given a name - Sophie.

In this lesson we will look at how to draw a girl in full growth with a pencil in stages. Our girl is athletic with dumbbells in her hand and in sportswear.

To draw a girl in full growth, you first need to build a skeleton, the pose in which she stands. At this stage, the correct proportions are built relative to different parts of the body. First we draw a small head, I drew a circle, then heading, a face and an ear. You can draw an oval and guides, as in the lesson,. Then we draw with straight lines the parts of the body, neck, spine, arms, legs, hands and feet. Now with simple figures we show parts of the body and joints, in particular the direction of the chest and pelvis. After that, we work out the lines of the girl's body in more detail. At the same time, making the previous lines barely visible.

Erase the drawn lines so that they are slightly visible and start drawing the face. First draw the nose, then the shape of the eyes, eyebrows.

We draw the shape of the face, lips, finalize the eyes, draw the hair. To get a face, you must first practice drawing individual parts of the face:

4. More lessons on individual parts in the section ""

Draw the top, hands, fingers, pants, sneakers and leggings. Apply shadows and the drawing of a sports girl is ready.

Women and men have fundamental differences in body structure. But, in today's world, some women look like men because of their clothes and hairstyles. However, no matter how hard a woman tries to look like a man, we can still recognize her. The main distinguishing feature is the structure of the woman's body - these are wide hips and narrower shoulders (in men, exactly the opposite figures). At drawing a woman in full growth it is worth starting from this basic rule, and the rest of the secrets of construction can be learned from this step-by-step lesson.

Materials and tools:

1. White sheet of paper.
2. Simple pencil.
3. Eraser.

Stages of work:

Photo 1. First you need to draw a vertical center line with a simple pencil. We leave serifs at the edges of the segment. They will determine the total body height that cannot be exceeded:

Photo 2. We divide the segment in half. Thus, the line is divided into two parts, along which we will later build the body. Next, divide the upper segment in half again, and measure another half from the resulting upper segment. The uppermost segment is the height of the woman's head:

Photo 3. Now you need to outline the location of the shoulders. The shoulder line will be under the head, namely under the second (top) serif. Let's retreat a little down from the head, leaving some room for the neck. Draw the line of the shoulders at an angle, because the woman will stand slightly leaning:

Photo 4. Next, we need to find out the place of the waist and knees. To do this, you need to divide the center line into three parts. To make this easy, we divide the lower half of the center line in half, but the line of the knees will be slightly higher. We measure its height and transfer it to the center line three times, leaving serifs. The result should be three equal parts:

Photo 5. Now we outline the waist line. It will be located on the serif between the first and second half of the divided center line (there are 3 parts in total), and the hips are slightly lower and twice as wide as the waist. We draw the hips and waist at an angle, opposite to the shoulders:

Photo 6. We unite the shoulders and waist along the edges, and from the waist we draw a line to the hips. It is necessary to outline the length of the skirt - it will be equal to two distances from the waist to the hips:

Photo 7. From the shoulders we outline the location of the hands. The left arm will be bent at the elbow and is at waist level, and the right arm will be raised and laid aside:

Photo 8. Now let's draw the legs. Do not forget that the knees should be located at the level of the notch. The right leg will go a little behind the left:

Photo 9. Let's draw the head in the form of an oval, and on it we will "outline" the hair. Most of them will fall to the left side:

Photo 10. Let's draw the hands and give them a shape. The girl will hold her left hand at the waist, and the right hand will be set aside:

Photo 12. With an eraser, we remove the extra lines that were previously needed for construction. Strengthen the contour of the woman's body:

Photo 13. Let's draw the features of the woman's face. We don’t put much emphasis on drawing the face, because our main task is to learn how to draw a woman in full growth, namely the body. You can study my separate lesson "how to draw a female portrait", where I work out the details of the girl's face in detail:

Photo 14. Set the tone for the hair. Near the bends we make the strokes of the pencil denser:

Pencil drawing of a girl, parts of her body.

The human body is unique in itself and very beautiful, especially the female body. And this is not surprising, so many professional artists try to draw exactly the female curves.

There are a huge number of methods for depicting the human body on paper. In our material, we will tell you how to draw a girl with a pencil, her arms and legs in the simplest way and in different poses.

How to beautifully draw a human figure a girl in full-length clothes step by step with a pencil for beginners and children?

In the first lesson, we will try with you to depict a girl in clothes in full growth. To do the job without errors, you first need to familiarize yourself with human anatomy, learn basic skills. Drawing a female body is not easy. Many experienced artists, oddly enough, do not always succeed.

Thanks to our lesson, you will learn what the human body consists of and try to draw it on paper on your own using an ordinary pencil. You must have all the necessary tools:

• Thick paper - 1 pc.
• A simple pencil - several pieces of different softness
• Eraser

Drawing process:

• Draw a simple sketch of a girl to begin with. It should not stand straight for you, but be natural and relaxed.
• Draw the head in the figure slightly tilted, the right leg left to the side so that the weight of the body is directed to the left leg.
• Mark the curves of the joints with dots.
• As for the spine, it should be flexible, so you should not draw it straight.
• Then mark the feet of your model.
• If you want to depict her in heels, then draw her on socks. Draw the head in the form of an oval, slightly pointed at the bottom.
• Now, with the help of smooth lines, outline the silhouette of the model. Remember also the muscle mass under the skin.
• Draw the muscles on the calves in the form of small ovals.

• Place the largest muscles in the thigh area.
• Draw one hand and hide the other behind the body.
• Define rounded knees.
• If you want the girl's figure to be more natural, sketch out her skeleton.
• Outline the hair so that it falls freely over the left shoulder.
• Carefully remove any extra strips. If you were able to build the girl's body correctly, then it will look proportional. Mark the chest on the girl's body.
• Now dress up your beauty. Remember that you still need to "build" the face.
• First, divide your face horizontally into two equal parts. The resulting line will be the tip of the nose.
• Then divide the lower part into two equal parts again and designate the lower lip. Draw the full face.
• At the next stage, you can put your model in any clothes, in our case it will be a summer T-shirt with a skirt and sandals. Draw thick strands of hair for the girl.
• Now take care of the details and volumes. Plus, add decor and jewelry to your clothes. Focus on a dark t-shirt with a pattern. With the help of light hatching, mark the folds of the skirt, sketch the shadow areas more densely at the bottom and near the belt. Using a sharp, hard pencil, draw a pattern. Then draw the decoration.

How to draw a girl's legs in clothes with a pencil?

So, now we will try to tell you in detail how to draw a person's legs correctly. In fact, they are drawn quite easily, but this is only if the drawing itself is simple. If you want to depict legs in a beautiful and more realistic picture, then you will have to put in a little effort.

In order to learn how to draw legs correctly, you need to remember the main rule is that the legs are never straight. Think for yourself, they will not look natural, without any bends. The picture will turn out beautiful if you convey the shape of the legs, taking into account every detail.

Now let's move on to the first step:

• Start drawing the legs from above, gradually going down. So it's easier and easier.
• Now pay attention to the knees. They must be depicted on paper correctly. There is nothing complicated or special here. However, if you make at least one small mistake or draw something incorrectly, then the whole drawing will not be beautiful.

• When you draw the legs, remember that the knees are considered the main connection point. If you draw this point incorrectly, spoil the whole picture.
• Try to draw the legs carefully, because there are subtle but important details.
• The next step is drawing muscle tissue. Think right away what muscles you want to draw a girl.
• Then pay special attention to how to correctly draw the curves of the legs.
• Do everything here very carefully, while paying attention to every detail.
• And at the very end, draw the girl's feet, with them each toe, heel.

• Highlight every moment of the feet to make them look natural.

How easy is it to draw a person a girl in full-length clothes by cells?

Not everyone can draw beautiful pictures. And those who do not have the ability to draw at all can only dream about it. If you also can’t draw or you can’t do it with difficulty, then you can try to draw pictures by cells. Yes, exactly in the cells! Such drawings are practically in no way inferior to ordinary paintings drawn with a pencil. They look quite beautiful and natural.

By counting the required number of cells, and then painting them in one color or another, you will be able to depict on paper not only a portrait, but also a girl in full growth. You will only have to be patient and attentive.

If you want to draw large pictures, it is better to take graph paper for this. However, you can also use ordinary checkered sheets. Just glue them together to make one large sheet. You just have to find a special scheme and draw as the cells are indicated on it.

Video: We draw a girl with a pencil, the main nuances

In this lesson, we will try to draw a girl in full growth with a pencil. For this, knowledge of human anatomy, at least basic, will be useful. Drawing a person is quite difficult. It is not very easy for many artists to depict people, even famous ones, oddly enough. Aivazovsky's famous painting "Pushkin's Farewell to the Sea" was painted jointly with Repin, since Aivazovsky managed to portray the sea perfectly, but not everything was so wonderful with portraits. Therefore, Pushkin had to be painted by another great master of the brush. In our lesson, you will receive basic knowledge about the structure of the human body and try to draw a girl in full growth with a pencil in stages.

1. Take a thick sheet of white paper, preferably matte (although you can also use colored paper, the main thing is that it be fine-grained or generally smooth, since fine details cannot be drawn with a simple pencil on loose paper). Two simple pencils of different softness and an eraser. Let's start with a light sketch of the girl's pose, her movements. She does not stand exactly like a tin soldier, her figure is more natural and relaxed. The head is tilted to the side, the right leg is slightly set aside, so the entire weight of the body will be on the girl’s left leg. Dots denote the bends of the joints, they will be in the shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles. The height of the girl is calculated in this way: the length of the face from the chin to the top of the forehead should “fit” into the height about eight times. The lengths from the hip to the knee or from the knee to the ankle are individual, there are no clear proportions. The human hand, or rather, the fingertips of the average person reach the middle of the thigh. Remember that the spine is flexible and does not need to be drawn as a hard, straight line. In our drawing, it is also slightly curved. Outline the girl's feet. Since she will be wearing high heels, visually it will look like she is standing on tiptoe. We draw the head like an egg, with the pointed part down. The length of a person's hand and the length of his foot are approximately equal to the length of his face from the chin to the top of the forehead.

   

   
   
2. Now with smooth lines we outline the silhouette of a girl. Don't forget the muscles under the skin. The calf muscles are denoted by small ovals. The largest and most powerful will be on the hips. We draw the girl's brush, the second one will not be visible due to the position of the body. We designate rounded knees.

   

   
   
3. In order to more accurately draw the figure of a person, you need to imagine “what is inside him”, his skeleton. Therefore, you can schematically designate the chest in the figure (this is a rigid bone frame made of ribs) and the pelvic bones (we draw them as a horizontal oval). We only outline the girl's hair, they will lie freely on her left shoulder.

   

   
   
4. We carefully remove all auxiliary lines and if you built the body correctly, then it will be beautiful and proportional. Let's denote the girl's chest. The roundness of the knees and the bulging calf muscles can be left in the drawing.

   

   
   
5. We begin to dress our drawn girl and outline the details of the face. Remember that the face is also "built". First, it is horizontally divided in half, and this line will be the site of the tip of the nose, then the lower half is again divided in half and the lower lip is indicated. At this stage, the figure can be dressed in anything. In this case, it will be a light summer top, skirt and sandals. We draw thick curly hair of a girl with curls.

   

   
   
6. We are engaged in the details and volume of the figure, as well as the decor of clothes and jewelry. We will focus on a dark top with patterns. With light shading we denote the folds on the skirt, we sketch the shadow places below and near the belt more densely. Draw an ornament with a sharp hard pencil. The decoration on the neck is drawn very simply, practically, with black intermittent dots. On this, the drawing is completely finished and, I hope, you also managed to draw a girl in full growth with a pencil.

   

   
   

Having memorized the principles of drawing the body and knowing the features of the anatomy of an adult, you can draw any figure, in any movement. You can’t do without this knowledge, so do not be lazy to study this “alphabet” necessary for the artist.
