Materials Needed
- Pencil
- Eraser
- Drawing paper
Step 1: Draw the Head and Body
Start by drawing a circle for the head and an oval shape below it for the body. Connect the head and body with a curved line to form the neck.
Step 2: Draw the Wings
On either side of the body, sketch out two large wings. Start by drawing a curved line that extends from the top of the body to the bottom. Then, add feather-like shapes along the edge of the wings.
Step 3: Draw the Arms and Hands
Extend two lines from the sides of the body to represent the arms. For the hands, draw small ovals at the end of each arm.
Step 4: Draw the Legs and Feet
From the bottom of the body, draw two lines for the legs. Then, sketch out the feet by drawing small ovals at the end of each leg.
Step 5: Add Details
Finish off your angel drawing by adding details such as a halo above the head, a robe over the body, and a pair of eyes and a mouth on the face.
Step 6: Final Touches
Once you are happy with your drawing, go over the lines with a darker pencil or pen to make them stand out. Erase any unnecessary lines and add shading to give your angel dimension.
Conclusion
Congratulations! You have successfully drawn a simple angel. Practice this drawing a few times to perfect your technique and experiment with different poses and styles. Remember, drawing takes time and patience, so don't get discouraged if your first attempt doesn't turn out perfect.
