Just a quick study of eyes. A few weeks ago they seemed so hard to draw. Like many people, I used to think they were almond shaped with a round thing in the middle. Then throw in a black dot and you have an eye.
Well guess what, I've learned a huge amount about eyes. They aren't really almond shaped. The iris is lighter in the middle and darker near the pupil and edge. The sclera isn't white, or fully white anyway. You have a lid flap that covers your eye lid, and the whole thing is shadowed by the brow ridge. Who knew?! Like i said, a month ago an eye was an almond with whiskers coming off of it.
By no means do i think these few simple drawings make me an expert at eyes, but they have helped to show what eyes really are like.
Expect to see more simple studies like this one. They really do help you to understand the subject.
Enjoy.
