Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
For the first step in this guide on how to draw an ear, we’ll start off pretty simple. Using the reference image as a guide, we’ll start by drawing a curvy vertical line.
This will form the outer edge of the ear, and once you’ve drawn it, we can move on to the next part!
Step 2 – Add more to the edge of the ear
Now that you’ve drawn the outer edge of your ear, you can extend it a bit more in this next step.
All you need to do for this step is to extend the liner so that it curves more towards the inside of the ear. The reference image will give you a good idea of how long it should be.
Step 3 – Start drawing in the inner part of the ear
In step 3 of this guide on how to draw an ear, we will start moving away from the outer ear and start with the inner part of the ear.
The inner ear is the most complex part of the drawing, so we’ll focus on how to make drawing easier in the next few steps.
To start, simply extend the line coming from the upper curve of the ear even further towards the center. Then you can add a very curvy line near the center of the ear as it appears in the picture.
Step 4 – You can now add more inner ear
To further draw the inner ear, for this step of drawing your ear you just need to add another curved line near the center.
This line will start near the lower loop of the ear and then extend to the upper loop.
There are some small bends and twists, so don’t be afraid to refer closely to the reference image to help you draw it!
Step 5 – Draw a few more lines for the inner ear
Your ear design is really starting to take shape now!
For this step, simply draw a sharply curved line from the top of the line you drew in the previous step and extending slightly to the end of the edge of the ear.
Step 6 – Finish the final details of your ear
With this 9th step of our guide on how to draw an ear, you are almost done! As you can see in your drawing, the many lines we added suddenly start to look like an ear.
We just need two more lines to complete your drawing, so let’s go ahead and add them now.
For the first line, simply start a line from the top curve you drew in the previous step and bring it down to the bottom of the ear.
Finally, add another slightly curved line going up the inner edge of the ear as it appears in the picture.
With these lines added, your ear drawing only has one more step until it’s finished!
Step 7 – Finish your ear drawing with color
Ears can be tricky to draw, but at this step, you’ve nailed it! Although that’s quite an achievement, there is still one more thing to do before I’m done properly, but luckily it’s a fun step!
Your ear design needs some color, and this is your chance to show us how creative you can be!
We’ve only shown one way to color your ear, but you should feel free to experiment and use whatever colors you like!
Choosing the color is just one way to customize your ear design, and there’s more you can do too.
A fun thing you could try is adding jewelry to the ear. If you have any earrings you like, you can draw them on this ear!
Or, you can unleash your inner jewelry maker and create some stunning earrings for them!
You can also have fun trying different artistic mediums to color your ear. My suggestion would be to use watercolor paints, as the softer look they produce would be great on the skin.
This is just a suggestion though, and you can have a great time using any of your favorite tools and art mediums to complete your drawing!
