Draw a Woman in Formal Dress

Here’s a simple tutorial on how to draw a woman in a formal dress.

Steps

  1. Draw a small oval, a rectangle and one line. Draw lightly so you can erase if needed.
  2. Draw one more line and one oval for the arm.
  3. Draw more ovals and few lines.
  4. Add a line to mark a place for hair.
  5. Draw more details, as shown. Add neck and skirt.
  6. Add more lines for a jacket and draw shoes.
  7. Outline the drawing, add more details.
  8. Color the drawing, choosing some dark color or maybe you can try a nice shade of beige.

Tips

  • Remember that if it doesn't come out perfect the first time, that trying again is an option.
  • It also helps to walk away from a piece to clear your head. Usually when you'll return, you'll realize that the piece isn't as hideous as you thought and that it can be salvaged. Try,try again!

Warnings

  • Make sure to start off drawing lightly. Mistakes can happen, and the darker you start off drawing, the harder it will be to erase the lead.
  • Also, be careful of smudging. Another small piece of paper under your drawing hand is key.

Things You'll Need

  • Eraser
  • Graphite Pencil (HB 2 or mechanical)
  • Colored pencils (if preferred)(Try Prismacolor. A bit pricey, but they blend much better than Crayola, and RoseArt® combined.)
