Learn More About The Tears Drawing
Tears are the salty liquid that leaks from our eyes when we cry. Although we most often associate tears with pain or sadness, they can be shed during happy times as well - for instance, when we laugh heartily; in times of great joy, such as the birth of a child; and in times of relief, such as the return of a loved one who had been in danger.
There are, in fact, three different types of tears. Our eyes constantly produce basal tears, which keep the eyes moist and inhibit infection.
Reflex tears occur in response to a stimulus, such as when something gets in your eye, when you smell strong fumes, or eat spicy foods.
This type of tear also forms when you cough or yawn. Finally, psychic tears are the kind shed in response to strong emotions.

When draw, tears often assume the "teardrop" shape - a curved figure that is rounded on the bottom and has a point on top.
You, however, may wish to draw a more realistic depiction of a person shedding tears. If so, you've come to the right place. All you will need is a pencil, a sheet of paper, and this easy, step-by-step drawing tutorial.
Each step of this tear-themed drawing guide includes a detailed illustration as well as explanatory text. Notice the light blue lines in each picture, as these indicate new lines to be added to your drawing.
Also, if you have access to crayons, markers, colored pencils, or paints, you may wish to use these to shade your picture when complete.
