Hello my friends and welcome to another Tuesday of tutorial!
I am Leonardo Pereznieto and today we will draw a fairy.
I already made the sketch very lightly with pencil.
Now I'm going over the outline with a pen.
We sketch the hair and outline the face.
This is another tutorial as last week's
inspired by the arrival of the Spring
but this one in a different and maybe more magical way.
Let's draw her hair by making lines in the direction of the flow of the strands
going a little bit heavier and tighter to do the shading in the areas that should be darker.
Let's make a little jewel here...
and other features, starting with the eyebrows with just a line, then the eyes very simplified
the nostrils and the mouth
just an indication of it,
very very simple
Now the arms, and the hands.
Since I already sketched them with pencil this is really easy!
I spent a long time doing the pencil sketch and making
corrections and corrections.
Now this is the fun part and what makes it look nice.
We draw a line for the surface of the water.
She is sitting on a big flower
which is floating.
We draw her feet and now some fish,
fish with a long and big tail.
Another one over here
let's do an ornament around her leg,
a third fish,
and then let's give her some butterfly wings
with some nice design on them.
We can be creative here, I'm not doing this very realistic
and why not? also butterflies,
since we said this drawing was to welcome the Spring.
Now I use the back of the tip of the pen
to do some shading because in this way it draws finer lines.
Good! and there are some lines which I want to highlight
so I switch tools for my Montegrappa aviator flying ace, fountain pen.
Which in this case has a broad nib and black ink in it
so with this we can make some lines darker and more evident.
So they really stand out comparing them to the other thinner and lighter lines.
We don't want to do this everywhere just on the parts that we want to stand out.
Like the young woman...
her outline and things like that.
And what about this one butterfly
which is flying in front.
Now I go back to the other pen, to shade.
Shading gives a more realistic look
and also a "three-dimensionality" [laughter].
that is volume, it looks like it has volume.
Let's also shade some of the design on the wings so that it looks nice and it's ready!
