Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
To draw the mouth without making a mistake in proportions, you must first draw according to the instructions. First, draw a vertical line running through the center of the face, then draw a horizontal guide line.
Step 2
Delineate the contours of the upper and lower lips using very light lines. Here it is necessary to outline the volume and general shape of the lips with very rough and general lines, without trying to draw details.
Step 3
Now with more finished and precise lines draw the contours of the upper lip, guided by the instructions from the previous step. To check for symmetry, you can look at your drawing in the mirror.
Step 4
Now, using the instructions from the previous steps, draw the lower border of the upper lip. When drawing such symmetrical details, try to constantly compare the left and right and sometimes move the drawing away from you so as not to confuse the proportions.
Step 5
Use precise and finished lines to draw the lower lip. We want to draw your attention to the fact that everyone is different and their lips are shaped differently. In our example, we show a certain formula with which you can draw any lips, just changing the shape of the lines slightly.
Step 6
Now remove all unnecessary guides from your lip drawing for a more complete and clean look. In addition, you can add some details, such as folds on the lips.
Step 7
Now with the help of brush strokes the shadows take into account the shape of the lips and the rules of light and shadow. To make the shadows darker, add additional hatching layers.
Step 8
Compare your lips drawing with our example to find mistakes and correct them if you make them. You can also try adding details like creases on the lips.
Recall that the drawing of lips you see in our example is a certain general formula. So, try drawing the lips with a different shape using the steps above. This will help you solidify the skills you already have.
To make your skills more comprehensive, draw the whole face with lips and other details, such as nose, ears, eyes, etc. Each time you draw your lips alone or your entire face, always keep in mind the steps we’ve outlined. this drawing tutorial.
