Learn More About The Face Outline Drawing
Some beginner artists think the face is the hardest part of the human body to draw. But it doesn't have to be difficult! This easy, step-by-step face outline drawing guide can help you master the face in no time.
This face is drawn in portrait perspective, looking the subject straight in the eyes.
You can build your skills by drawing the face from other directions, too. Learn how to draw a face in profile perspective, from the side.
Then you can get really creative and learn how to draw a face in 3/4 perspective. That means it's at an angle halfway between portrait and profile.
Finally, you can also flex your skills by altering this drawing to fit your needs.
For example, could you make this a portrait of a man instead of a woman? What would the picture look like if you left off the long hair, eyelashes, and upper and lower lines of the lips?
