How to draw fairies (part 1)

 

How to draw fairies - This is the tutorial you were looking for to realize a perfect drawing of a Fairy.

 

 

A fairy is a type of mythological being or legendary creature, a form of spirit, often described as metaphysical, supernatural or preternatural.

 

How to draw fairies - Let's get started!

 

We'll draw not one but two Fairies in this tutorial so you get twice the effect with the same effort. Let's get prepared for the ride.

 

 

We are going to draw two fairies interacting with each other. As these little creatures are supposed to have a human body we'll sketch them as if we were drawing human female characters with slightly different features.

 

Sketch a large circle for the head, a thin neck and a couple of elongated circles for the torso and hip region.

 

 

How to draw fairies - sketching the bodies

 

As if you were drawing ant legs sketch the arms and legs of the fairies with long sticks. The hands are small balls and the feet small triangles.

 

 

Fairies wouldn't be such if they had no wings so go on and draw big insect like wings. Two pairs for each one. Then use black pencil to start defining the real shape of the bodies over the sketch.
