Drawing Expressive Eyes for Beginners

Welcome to this class about drawing expressive eyes for beginners! Doodling eyes is a passion of mine and I'd love to share my favorite tips with you. In this class we'll focus on drawing emotion in the eyes while also exploring some anatomy basics and different eye shapes. 

Here's a quick summary of the class : 

• Anatomy : A few anatomy basics to help you draw realistic eyes; visual dictionary; facial muscles
• Shapes : A series of common eye shapes; drawing different shapes; drawing the eye in profile 
• Expressions : My technique for adding expressiveness to your eye drawings
• Lineart & Style : Draw along with me; examples of different sketching styles
• Let's Practice : A few ideas for your class project

For this class you'll need your usual drawing tools (traditional or digital, whichever you prefer). I used both Photoshop and pens (Staedtler Pigment Liners and regular fountain pens).
