Hallo all..

Today I will share information on drawing techniques and techniques of drawing facial expression.

A drawing is a blend of dots, lines, planes and colors which, when they are all composed, create an image. The image is something that can represent a real object and has characters that match the original.

Images have a variety of functions. Among these are as technical language, media information delivery and much more. In drawing there are various techniques that can be used. Here's a variety of drawing techniques and examples.

• Drawing Techniques Arsir

The first is the technique of drawing shading. This is a basic technique in drawing using a pencil. This technique is more emphasis on the strength (thickness) of the line. The strength of the line can be created using pencils, markers, ink or other drawing tools that can produce repeating lines to make a difference to the line strength so that it creates a dark impression of light, gradation or dimensional impression on the image.

The first step taken to learn shading is to practice gradation shading technique to create a single row of boxes. Make more than one box and shuffle each box with a different type of pencil. Take a look at the difference in dark and bright impression generated from each box.

• Silhouette Technique (Block)

The second is silhouette. Also commonly known as shadow drawing techniques. This technique uses one color (usually black) to close the image object so that the embodiment of the character in the object. By just looking at the silhouette, we should be able to guess the true form of the object being described.

The technique of drawing the silhouette is subdivided into 2 kinds, that is

1. Positive Silhouette
   A positive silhouette is done by giving the color to the desired shape. Suppose we want to draw a tree, then we give one full color to the picture.

2. Negative Silhouette
   Negative silhouette is done by giving the color around the desired shape. This is the opposite of a positive silhouette technique. So suppose we draw a tree, then the one given full color is not the tree but the area around the tree or the background.

• Drawing Technique Pointilisme (Point)

The technique of pointilism is the technique of drawing using a collection of dots. From the many points it will form an image. What determines the dark and bright impression of an image is the density of the collected points. The closer it becomes darker and the more tenuous it will be the brighter the object is described.

• Aquarel Technique (Transparent)

Next is the aquarel technique. This technique uses wet media to produce a transparent color. Usually use watercolor, acrylic paint, etc. The paper that will be used for drawing is made wet or damp for fast paint to spread.

In creating objects using aquarel menggmbar technique is done by repeating and stacking the quota to produce the old color. This technique requires special skills in mastery of the brush tool.

• Linear Drawing Technique

The next technique is linear technique. Already visible from its name which means line, this technique uses a straight line or a curved line to form an image. The dark and bright impression created by this technique is to use many and tightly assembled lines within a single area or area of ​​the image.

• Plaque Technique

This technique uses watercolors or poster paints to create an image. With a thick sweep of color will produce images that look thick and close.

• Technique Perspective

The perspective technique is used for the purpose of objects that are drawn in a reasonable way with our eyes. Usually use the laying of the horizon line, the location of objects and the number of missing points. The results of this technique will produce 3-dimensional images that match the eye view.

• Drawing Technique Sketch

Usually used for basic images or plans to create an image. It is the earliest part of almost any artwork of drawing. Sketching is very influential for the next steps in the process of drawing and painting. Most used are dry media such as black pencil.

The purpose of making a sketch is to minimize errors in drawing and make the shape of the image more proportional.

• Teknik Dussel (Rub)

This technique uses a way of rubbing to make a dark and bright impression on the picture. Usually the tool used is pencil, crayon and konte. In drawing using dussel technique, use cotton or fingers to rub the created image. The lines on the picture are removed or smoothed by rubbing.

The most suitable pencil to use this technique is a soft pencil such as 2B, 3B pencil and so on.

TECHNIQUE DRAWING HUMAN FACE EXPRESSION

In the real world the easiest way to understand a person especially what he feels at the moment is by looking at the expression on his face. It is also true in the world of fine arts. To show a stronger character when drawing a face it is also necessary to add his facial expression if he is sad, angry, joyful and the like, so the work made becomes more alive.

Everyone would agree that the image of a face that has an expression is more interesting than a just silent. Therefore for those interested to learn more about this facial drawing technique please follow the following explanation. Good luck.

• Eyebrow shape and lips

Things that need to be observed is the form of eyebrows, eyes and lips. This is important in the technique of drawing facial expression because these parts can reinforce facial expressions that can be seen by others. The shape of the lips, eyebrows and eyes can be transformed into a particular shape such as a crescent shape, oval or round to describe mimic or emotional expression. You can follow more details on the explanation below.

• Expression of joy

As a first speech in the technique of drawing facial expressions I will explain the expression of joy. Who knows a nice welcome can invite more people. Simply express the joy can be described with the shape of the lips like a crescent moon or like a wide and horizontal U. The eye or eyebrows are unchanged.

Because the cheek muscles are slightly pushing up the bottom of the eye so it's a bit narrowed up. Expression of joy of course not only a flat smile as above but also can be a big smile or even laugh out loud.
The basic proportions of the face remain a reference for drawing any expression. To draw a happy facial expression can be started by making a face proportions reference as described in the previous sketch drawing technique. In addition, because there is a facial expression that makes the mouth open wide then the distance between the nose to the chin is slightly increased compared to the basic proportions.

• Angry expression

The most prominent form is the shape of the two eyebrows that tilt toward the middle of the bottom as a form of the letter V, while the shape of the lips can be various kinds such as flat, open or curved.

• Sad expression

For the next facial expression drawing technique is a sad expression. The most prominent sad facial expression is shown with both eyebrows that are tilted to the middle over the opposite of an angry expression. In addition the other characteristic is the curved upward lips, the opposite of a happy expression. With the second form of eyebrows as above still looks sad even though his lips are flat. To draw a sad expression please try some of the following examples, I tried to apply a sad expression of Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson :

If the actual counted facial expression can be spelled out very much so that I did not have time to discuss one by one. The three previously mentioned expressions are just a few small ones because I consider the three most common. Facial expressions can be spelled out very many even too much. Therefore, for facial expressing drawing techniques I recommend that you also use a reference to either a photo, either an image or perhaps by looking in the mirror while making a certain expression up to you.
