How to Draw the Human Figure
- 1). Take art classes at a community college. Look up free tutorials on how to draw the human figure on the Internet.
- 2). Draw by looking at a nude model in a life drawing class. If a class is not possible, ask a friend to wear tight-fitting clothing and draw her.
- 3). Try drawing one part of the human figure at a time. Practice each part until you are satisfied. Work on just the feet or hands one day.
- 4). Learn the proportions and study the structure of each body part. Focus on the basic structure first and then practice the details, because every human is different. Try to work on the alignment of the eyes, mouth and three-dimensional nose before focusing on details.
- 5). Read about drawing the human figure. Take notes on those areas you need to practice.
