Draw Angels
Here is a simple tutorial on how to draw 2 angels facing each other and praying.
Steps
Traditional Angels
- Start with the angel on the right. Draw a profile. Then draw two lines crossing at the nose. These guidelines will help you when adding detail to the head.
- Draw curly hair and a face. Use an "L" shape to draw his closed eye at the cross of the 2 lines from the previous step. Then, add a line above it for an eyebrow.
- Outline a body. In this case, the angel will be kneeling with his hands in praying position.
- Draw the hands. Also begin drawing the outline of the angel's wings.
- Add feet. You can also add lines to emphasize the folds in his robe.
- Draw feathers on the angel's wings.
- Outline your work using a black pen (or any other permanent media). Erase inside lines and guidelines to clean up your drawing.
- Repeat the previous steps on the opposite side. Your finished product should be two angels.
- Color your artwork.
Cartoon Angel
- Draw a medium-size circle for angel’s head. Draw a cross-section inside the circle.
- Draw the pattern for the body using straight lines and curves. Draw a rectangle below the circle. Draw a line near the upper part of the rectangle. Draw trapezoids which extend from the upper rectangle.
- Draw clothes for the angel resembling a robe. Draw the necklace using small circles which are connected.
- Draw details for the legs and feet using curve lines.
- Draw the wings using curves which are longer at the top and becoming smaller as it goes down.
- Draw details for the angel’s eyes, nose,mouth, and hair.
- Draw the halo using a ring shape at the left side of the head.
- Trace with a pen and erase unnecessary lines. Refine the drawing by adding details.
- Color using your imagination!
