How to draw a boy with a ball. How to draw a boy with a pencil
Then, for sure, it will not be difficult for you to draw a boy step by step with colored pencils. As always, you first need to depict with simple auxiliary lines the general proportions of the child: his height, the location of his head and torso. And only then you will be able to approach the drawing of each element in more detail.
Necessary materials:
- paper;
- regular pencil;
- black marker;
- eraser;
- ruler;
- colored pencils in orange, blue, pink and brown tones.
Drawing steps:
1. First, let's draw a vertical line. Let's determine the location of the head and legs. At the very top of the line, draw a circle. This will be the boy's head. From the bottom we will draw a semicircle with a slightly larger diameter.
2. We begin to work out the drawing from the head. Let's draw hair along the entire upper part. You can experiment and come up with any hairstyle for him. We will also draw two horizontal lines on the face and draw two semicircles in the middle.
3. Now let’s add hair on the front of the face. Add ears to the sides of the head, and all the missing features to the face. They should be small and neat, because we are drawing a boy.
4. Move on to the torso and start drawing the arms and T-shirt.
5. We detail it and from simple outlined lines we get ready-made elements in the drawing.
6. Draw little shorts.
7. From the shorts we draw the legs and sports shoes.
8. We outline each element in the drawing with a marker. It must be black. If you don't have one, use a felt-tip pen of the same color.
9. We begin to color the boy’s step-by-step drawing from the very top to the very bottom. Use a brown pencil to color the child's hair.
10. Now let's move on to the face, arms and legs where the skin is visible. To give a more natural look, use a pink pencil and a brown one.
11. Finally, let’s decorate the clothes and shoes. The boy's T-shirt will be orange, but the shorts and sneakers will be light blue.
12. With this we have a wonderful step by step drawing. You can add a lot of small details to such an image.

We draw a portrait of a boy step by step with STABILO aquacolor watercolor pencils.
Ideal for drawing as a classic colored pencil, with rich colors and a soft lead for easy application and excellent color blendability.
Take a simple pencil and a sheet of thick white A4 paper. We will draw a portrait of a 4-year-old boy. Our first task is to harmoniously arrange the image on the sheet. Using light lines we outline the general shapes of the head, neck and shoulder girdle. Despite the fact that we will focus on the face, it is important to at least set the main lines of the neck and shoulder girdle, otherwise it will not be clear how the head is located in space and the portrait will look unnatural.
We designate a vertical line of facial symmetry, taking into account the tilt of the head. The boy's head is tilted to the left and back, while the center of symmetry of the face is shifted to the right. Divide the head in half horizontally. We remember that the head is not flat, but rounded, so these lines will not be strictly straight, it is better to follow their shape.
Now we need to clarify the proportions of the face and outline the location of the main parts. The head of a child differs from the head of an adult in its larger and rounded frontal region. The horizontal axial line we have drawn will go along the brow ridges, the forehead and parietal region will occupy the entire upper half of the head. We divide the lower half horizontally into two parts and each half in half. We get the following landmarks: a) cheekbones, b) tip of the nose, c) section of the mouth. Just above the cheekbone height line, you can add an axis for the location of the eyes (d). Add a hairline at the top of the head.
Let's finely outline the cheekbones and clarify the contours of the boy's face, hair and ears. Taking into account the tilt and rotation of the head, we will see more of the boy - the left side of the face. Compared to the face of an adult, children's facial contours are more rounded and soft. The chin is shorter, weaker. The cheeks are fuller, so the relief of the cheekbones and chin will be smoothed out. Next, for now, let's roughly outline the eyebrows, eyes, nose and mouth. Children will have larger eyes, a shorter nose, and wider nostrils, relative to an adult's face. The bridge of the nose does not protrude so much and its contours are lighter. While drawing, we monitor symmetry and take into account the rotation of the head. The distance between the eyes will approximately correspond to the length of the eye section and can be easily compared with the width of the wings of the nose (the tubercles that cover the nostrils).
Now let's move on to more precise drawing of the parts of the face. Let's start with the eyes and eyebrows. Let's easily outline the bridge of the nose and eyebrows. The eyebrows have an arched shape, slightly widening towards the bridge of the nose and narrowing towards the outer edges. It is better to build the eyes in parallel in order to maintain symmetry relative to the bridge of the nose. The eye shape is almond-shaped and is called the palpebral fissure. The inner edges of the palpebral fissure will be located slightly lower than the outer ones. And it is important to ensure that the outer and inner edges of both eyes correspond in level (b). When depicting the eyes, we need to remember that they are spherical in shape and located in the orbital sockets under the protruding brow ridges (a). We see only the part of the eye limited by the almond-shaped palpebral fissure (eye section). The upper and lower eyelids open like the edges of a broken fruit shell and follow the round shape of the eye. Around the eyes we usually see slight folds of the upper and lower eyelids. The fold of the upper eyelid hangs slightly over the eye, and its edge extends just below the border of the lower eyelid. Eyelashes grow along the outer edge of the eyelids, so you should not draw them immediately from the border of the palpebral fissure. In the inner corner of the eye there is a small reddish nodule - the lacrimal sac.
Let's move on to the nose. Let us determine the axis of its inclination and general location. The nose “starts” from the lower edge of the frontal region, where we see a smooth transition from the eyebrows to the most “concave” part - the bridge of the nose. It is located just above the lacrimal sacs of the eyes (a). The middle part of the nose gradually widens towards the tip. A child's nose has a very soft, streamlined shape, so in the portrait we will see mainly the outlines of the tip and wings of the nose, as well as light shadows around the middle part of the nose. The bridge of the nose and the middle part do not protrude as much as in an adult, so you can only very easily outline the contours. The most protruding part is the tip of the nose. In the drawing, this is not the very bottom edge of the outline. If we look at the face not from above, but slightly from below (as in the portrait of a boy), the nostrils and the membrane between them will be slightly visible to us. It is worth making sure that it is in the center of the face, and pay attention to the location of the wings of the nose.
From the center of the base of the nose to the lip there is a small groove that rests on a nodule that divides the upper lip in half. Each lip consists of two symmetrical parts of complex shape. Therefore, the mouth will never look like two stripes separated by a straight line. The upper lip resembles a stretched letter “M”, the lower, plumper, has two fused tubercles. In the center of the lower lip, its shape narrows slightly. When drawing, it is important to highlight the lower edges of the upper and lower lips with a line, since these are the most prominent parts. Closer to the edges of the mouth, it is better to make the lines opposite - lighter. Facial folds run from the edges of the mouth to the nose, especially noticeable when a person smiles. In the case of a child's portrait, you can mark them lightly near the mouth. The chin of children is shorter and not as prominent as that of an adult. However, it will be important for us to remember to use a shadow to mark the dimple separating the mouth and the protruding part of the chin.
Let's compare everything we got. Using light lines we clarify the details of the hairstyle, add the contours of the neck and clothes. In the case of a boy, it is important not to forget to draw the visible parts of the ears.
At this stage, we remove all auxiliary lines and the least noticeable contours. In particular, only light lines in the shadow part can be left near the bridge of the nose. Facial folds near the mouth are weakened as much as possible. In order to show a smile, you need to make small accents in the corners of the mouth and leave fold lines under the eyes. Don’t forget to leave highlights on the iris of your eyes, this will make your look expressive. Next we will work with colored pencils, so it is better to weaken all the main lines with a soft eraser without erasing them completely.
Let's determine which side the light is coming from. The boy's right side of his face is more illuminated. It is important to leave light areas in those places where we see the brightest glare of light: this is the nose, especially the tip, the protruding parts of the illuminated cheek, the chin. Our first task is to distribute the primary colors of the entire image. We start with very light shading, general spots, from light to darker tones. We have already understood very well the shape of what is being depicted, and when using colored pencils it is important not to lose this. Therefore, it is better to draw strokes according to shape, enhance the color in the most “convex” areas closest to us and outline the shadows with darker colors. For light areas of the skin we use ocher, pink, red-brown pencils, in the penumbra - shades of brown. For a boy's hairstyle - darker shades of brown. Please note that the hair is also unevenly lit, with lighter and darker areas. Next, let's outline the colors of the clothes. We can easily mix shades by layering one tone on top of another.
Now we need to make the portrait more voluminous, add details and accents. In the shadows we add cool shades: dark brown, gray, blue, purple, black. Blue and black pencils should be used very sparingly: only for main accents. In our portraits, the most contrasting shadows are in the hair around the face. In a lighter, cooler tone, apply shadows near the eyes, bridge of the nose, under the nose, cheeks and chin. We draw the eyes very carefully: they should be bright and expressive, but unnecessary strokes can greatly change the direction of gaze and even the expression of the face as a whole. We left a highlight on the tip of the nose; it should be “supported” with a shadow from below and a light tone from above. Having assessed the drawing as a whole, you can enhance the color on the protruding areas of the cheeks and chin, lower lip, and highlight the edge of the face with a dark line. The shadows on the neck should be done in a weaker tone so that it does not become brighter than the face and does not “climb” to the fore. At the very end, we accentuate the shadow under the lips, the folds around the mouth and under the eyes - this will emphasize the smile. Shadows and folds of clothing can be slightly enhanced, but so that it does not distract attention from the face. The drawing is ready!
Dear boys and girls! In this lesson we will tell you, how to draw a boy with a pencil step by step. Not every child will be able to learn how to draw a person the first time, and therefore we have divided the entire process into 8 stages. In any case, you should like our lesson, because with it you can learn how to draw a boy using a pencil.
STEP #1
We start by drawing a circle for the head, and then draw the outlines of the torso, arms and legs until a human figure appears, similar to the one you see here.
STEP #2
Now you should draw the entire shape of the face. It is necessary to sketch out the ear, eyebrows, hair and outlines of the eyes.
STEP #3
In this step we finish drawing the eyes of our boy, and then draw a simple nose and mouth.
STEP #4
At this stage we finish with the hairstyle as shown in the picture.
STEP #5
The next step is to draw the boy’s neck, as well as his torso, which will be hidden in a T-shirt with sleeves and a collar.
STEP #6
Now we draw the hands as shown in the picture.
STEP #7
Our boy is almost ready, and there is very little left. To do this, we finish drawing his legs, which will be hidden under his trousers. This is the easiest body part you'll need to draw, so you shouldn't have any difficulties.
STEP #8
At the last stage you need to draw shoes or feet. Don't forget to add soles for shoes. Now you can erase the lines and shapes you drew in the first step.
STEP #9
This is what your boy will look like when you're done. Now you can have even more fun when you start coloring it and end up with a finished beautiful picture. We hope you enjoyed our step-by-step lesson on how to draw a boy in pencil.
Each of us is surrounded by thousands of people. It would seem that we have learned the proportions and features of the human body down to the millimeter. But here's the paradox - draw a person much more complicated than anything you have ever seen.
Sometimes when you draw someone, you are amazed - not a person, but some kind of alien. If you also can’t draw people, as they say, don’t pass by - here you will find a lot of useful and interesting things for yourself.
And the very first thing is this video that will show you how to draw a boy and a girl.
Even ancient artists, when drawing a person, tried to divide his body into equal parts, so that it would be easy to correctly recreate the proportions of the figure. After all, knowing the relationship between individual parts of the body and the figure as a whole, you can easily draw a person. At the same time, of course, we must not forget that all people have their own characteristics.
So, drawing a person, We take the head size as a unit of measurement.
The height of an adult man or woman is equal to 8 head sizes, the height of a teenager is 7, a student is 6, and a baby is only 4 head sizes.
Proportions of people of different age groups
Before drawing a person, remember a few important nuances:
- arms should end at mid-thigh,
- elbows are at waist level,
- knees - strictly in the middle of the legs.
Did you know that the height of a person is equal to the length of his arms spread to the sides, and the length of his legs fits four times the height of his head?
But what amazed me even more was the size of the human foot. It turns out that its height is equal to the height of the nose, and its length is the length of the forearm.
Look how a man and a woman should be drawn correctly in different positions.
And now I will show you how to draw people step by step. I assure you, with the master class from Pustunchik it will be easy and simple.
How to draw a boy
If you need to draw a boy, use the following diagram. And I will tell you how and what parts of the body you need to draw step by step.
1. Draw an oval for the boy’s head, then a small neck and a rectangle for the body.
2. Draw another rectangle from below, divide it in half. These are the legs. Draw rectangular arms. On the upper large rectangle, make curves from the neck to the arms - these are the shoulders.
3. Erase the extra lines on the shoulders. Draw the neck of the sweater, the seam lines (but not all the way), where the sleeves connect to the main part of the sweater. Draw the fly and folds on the pants in the form of a slingshot. Now draw the shoes and hands. See the detailed diagram showing how to draw hands on the right.
4. Let's start drawing the head. First, draw a cross - it will point to the middle of the head and determine the location of the eyes. Two arches, two dots and one small arch at the bottom of the head are the top of the eyes, the future nose and lips. The ears will be located at the level of the nose and eyes.
5. Draw the eyes, in place of the dots draw small circles - nostrils. Now move on to the eyebrows and hair.
6. Erase the extra lines and, with light pencil movements, outline the folds on the clothing. Add details. Congratulations! The boy's drawing is ready.
How to draw a baby
This drawing is perfect for some comic book, and it can also be drawn for a kindergarten or elementary school student. The funny little one will also be a godsend for a school exhibition of young artists.
1. Draw an oval, indicate the eyes with dots, and show the baby’s nose and mouth with two bent arcs.
2. Mark the corners of the lips, draw ears and hair.
3. At the bottom of the head, draw a trapezoid - the boy’s body. Don’t forget to separate the blouse from the pants with a straight horizontal line, and show the pants with a vertical line.
4. Draw the sleeves.
5. Now draw the child’s arms and legs.
6. Divide the fingers with lines. That's all! The little mischief maker is ready for some pranks :)

Instructions
Look at the face. See which geometric figure it most resembles. Just like adults, there are oval, round, triangular and square faces. Of course, the last two forms are quite conventional, the corners will be strongly rounded, but still. With a square face, the width of the chin is quite wide, and the width of the forehead is approximately equal to the overall height of the face. With a triangular shape, the chin is quite sharp, and the forehead is much wider than the lower part of a boy’s face.
Select an angle and draw a center line. It will pass exactly between the eyebrows, along the middle of the bridge of the nose and divide the lips and chin into equal parts. If you are drawing a face from the front, the halves should be symmetrical. This is an easy option because it does not require perspective. However, for conveying character, especially for such an active and charming creature as a little boy, this is not the best option. Therefore, the line can be positioned at a slight angle to the horizontal.
Determine the approximate ratio of the right and left halves of the face. The one that will be built on an acute angle between the axial and horizontal cut of the sheet will be slightly wider because it is turned closer to the viewer. Construct an oval with the desired ratio of the long and short axes. It should match the shape of your head.
Divide the part of the center line located between the future chin and the crown into 6 or 7 equal parts. If it is small, there will be 6 parts. In a teenager, the facial proportions already resemble adults, so the parts will turn out to be smaller.
Mark the lines of the lips, wings of the nose, eyes, eyebrows and hair on the sides of the center line. This can be done with dots or strokes. Determine the masta for the ears if the boy has a short one and his ears are visible. Outline the neck with two vertical strokes.
Look at the proportions of the most important parts of the face. This is the ratio of the length and width of the eyes and the distance between their inner corners, the width of the wings of the nose to the bridge of the nose, the thickness and length of the lips. Outline the proportions with dots.
Pay attention to the shape of your boy's eyes. In children, racial characteristics are expressed as clearly as in adults. In a boy with a European or African type of face, the width of the eyes will be approximately 2/3 of their length, in a Mongoloid it is from 1/4 to 1/3. Draw a hair line.
