Eyes
For me, eyes were one of the most difficult elements to master, but once I was able to draw them pretty well, it quickly became my favorite thing to draw. Drawing eyes can get really creative and fun, so don't limit your mind -- once you learn how to draw it, open your window to new horizons, there's no telling what amazing ideas you could come up with! To learn the basics, refer below!

Drawing eyes is fairly simple.
- First, begin with slightly arched lines, and then make your way to drawing a circle, which will serve as the pupil.
- Eventually, more basic shapes will be used to illustrate small details within the eye that make it look "alive," so to speak.
- Follow each picture and notice what is being added from one step to the next, and draw along with it.
- Remember that for eye details, you should add your own creativity to make it unique!
Finishing the eye -- There are several ways to finish off the eye; adding eyelashes, "eye liner" (by making the eye look darker), and, of course, adding features such as eyebrows and eyelids. I have also included a side-view eye. I hope to post a more detailed tutorial of the side view eye soon ... !
Now you've mastered how to draw the eye! Below are some additional eye styles I drew if you're looking for more ways to draw eyes. Once again, don't be limited to just this -- create your own styles as well!
