In this drawing tutorial, we’ll teach you the steps to draw an ear step-by-step. As with other drawing classes on facial features, This lesson has an important position in the teaching of drawing.
First, drawing an ear essential for being able to draw the face. You can’t draw a perfect and realistic face if don’t know how the ear is drawn.
In order to understand the art of drawing an ear, it’s best to start by learning the anatomy of the ear at a minimum generally. This is important to comprehend the anatomy of the organ and draw it fully rather than just transfer the contours onto paper.
Step 1
Begin by sketching out the lines that make up the ears. In this phase, we must determine the boundaries and sketch out the area of the organ on paper. Like all the other steps, light tension on the pencil must be applied here.
Step 2
Then, using a smooth line, draw the whole outline of the ear with the lines drawn in the previous step. Ears come in a variety of shapes, which is why in the present lesson we’ll show the formula used to draw an ear. With this formula, one can trace not just the shape of the ear shown in the illustration but also the ear with any different shape.
Step 3
With a long, straight line, draw the outline of the lower edges of the Helix. Make sure that to draw the outlines with your that your ear will constantly review its components, in order to identify any errors and rectify them if they are.
Step 4
Now draw the antihelix, the history, and antitragus by drawing straight lines and long ones. Keep in mind that we have discussed all of these components of the ear during our post about the anatomy of this organ. Remember that these organs and their details may be individual from person to person.
Step 5
The ear’s opening, as well as the remainder of the cartilage in the ear. When drawing all of these details be sure they’re all of the right dimensions and ratio. Make sure to check the proportions, and then compare them one with each.
Step 6
Include shadows to give the drawing more volume and create a more realistic ear. Employ hatching in different dimensions and directions to get different levels of dark shadows. We have discussed the structure of shadows as well as their drawing accurately within our post on shadows and light.
Step 7
Write down the results of the work and examine the overall state of the ear drawing. Completely compare the drawing with the illustration. Check for errors and correct the mistakes, if they are.
We observed that students often make mistakes with proportions, the result of which the ear diagram is not convincing or real. To prevent this from happening attempt to keep proportions in mind starting from the very beginning take a take a look at the entire drawing and then move away from it, and then return it to the reflection. These measures will allow you to not get lost with regards to proportions, and also identify mistakes in the drawing promptly and rectify the mistakes.
It is equally important to accurately portray shadows. Start with the darkest regions and then introduce mid-tones, shadows, and lighting.
When drawing a shadow cast it is important to be aware that the shadow cast by the casting reflects not only the form of the object but also the design of the surface upon the surface that the shadow is projected.
It is important to keep in mind that in order to create the most convincing design it is essential to apply hatching in line with the form of the object. This gives the drawing of the ear the most accurate large appearance.
