Lovers Drawing Tutorial

Step 1.


Okay guys, let's begin by drawing the guides for the couple. Start with the head guides and then draw in the guidelines for the necks and shoulders.

Step 2.


Let's work on the male's face first. Start at the left part of the brow and begin sketching out the side of the face. Continue the lining down to sculpt out he chin, jaw and right side of the face which also includes the shape of his ear. When that i   

Step 3.


We will finish the face by drawing in the eyebrow as well as coloring it in. When that is done, draw the closed eye and make a line of light lashes. Add detailing inside the ear and then draw in some hair which will rest on the back of the neck. Don'   

Step 4.


Let us now complete the drawing of this guy by sketching out his hairstyle. It's a bit shaggy with all the pieces being pointed.

Step 5.


The head and face is done. Now let's draw the neck, shoulder and then the muscle definition to the neck and collar area.

Step 9.


Add the shape of her neck which is a simple single line. Then draw in one piece of her hair that is in front of her neck.

Step 10.


Lastly, draw the shoulder, arm, collar bone area and then both their hands. I didn't want to get too detailed with their hands because that is not what I wanted to showcase here. Erase the mistakes and guides when you're done.

Step 11.


Here is the line art. Now just color the lovers in.
