The Joys Of Pen And Paper

the joys of pen and paper

my friends law design (IDK IF HE HAS TUMBLR but his user keo_chooo_ insta twt)

another add on is that i do the same lines in diff places and directions for diff hairstyles as well!! twists locs braids esp

hii, first of all your art is absolutely gorgeous and you are so talented 💞!! i was just wondering if you had any advice on how you draw curly and textured hair? no worries if you don’t have the time to answer this!!

hi thank you!!! sorry this took me forever HAHA i wanted to put together a coherent detailed thing but realized i uhhh honestly don’t think that hard abt it when i draw

i tend to just plan out the hair parting n hairline

and then i just simplify n stylize curls by only drawing the front half of the curl? like this ^^ i like drawing them in an implied sort of style

rest of advice i’d give is to just observe how real hair sits (ie looser curls being more visible from further away n coming off as bigger etc etc) n how other artists draw hair !

getting there

GUITARS!!!
