STEP 1: How to draw the basic Underlying Shape and form

Create the basic shape of an eye,keeping in mind the underlying shapes and forms.The orbicular cavity or Eye socket in which eye is set is somewhat rectangular and the Orbit or Eye ball is a sphere.Draw basic shapes first ,dont worry about neatness and detail at this stage.Just draw the basic form you are seeing in front of you.

STEP 2: Hold your pencil like an Artist

Learn to  hold 2b pencil between your thumb and first two fingers.Dont hold the pencil like you are writing! Hold like an Artist. Using the side of you pencil lead establish lights and darks for your drawing along with the eye form .

As an Artist in Pakistan,there is lack of guided resources for online and self study.My goal is to provide free resources to art students and community and help them excel in their desired area of interest from learning to marketing their art.
