The eye is mainly composed of three parts, the eyeball, the upper eyelid, and the lower eyelid. The upper and lower eyelids wrap the eyeball. The eyeball is a sphere with a slightly convex cornea in the middle. The cornea wraps the upper and lower eyelids up and down. Due to the surrounding muscles, and the wrapping of the upper and lower eyelids, the eyeballs can move up, down, left, and right to a limited extent. When viewing the two eyes from the front, the inner canthus is lower than the outer canthus. When viewed from the side, the inner canthus is closer to the front and the outer canthus is closer to the back. If you want to shape a good pair of eyes, First of all, we need to understand the structure of the eyes and the relationship between the muscles and bones around the eyes. The eyes do not exist alone. The muscles pull the eyeballs to rotate, causing the shape of the upper and lower eyelids wrapped around the eyeballs to change, including some of the eyebrows and forehead. Changes in eyelashes, eye bags, nose, mouth, and ears are all factors that affect whether the eyes are expressive. In other words, if you want to create expressive eyes, you must go from the whole to the part, and then from the part back to the whole. The overall facial features must be Emotionally unified! Whether the eyes can speak is all expressed by the five senses. It should be noted that the eyeball is a sphere, and the exposed part is part of the sphere. It is neither flat nor flat. The two eyes are looking at the same object. , the pupils should focus on that object. By doing the above details and expressing your own emotions, your eyes can speak.
We often say that nothing is difficult in the world, and it is the same when we draw a complicated eye. A shape, a dynamic and accurate eye is the first step to draw a talking eye. An accurate shape requires viewing an overall eye as a large geometric body and then considering the outer eye, eyelids, eyeballs, extraocular muscles, etc. When the structure is viewed as a geometric body, the shape of an eye can be outlined by subdividing the geometry and adjusting the position of the geometry.
To express a vivid, lifelike eye requires more than just capturing the movement and shape of the eye. It is even more necessary to express it in the form of art, which is the most difficult. It not only requires one's own artistic accomplishments, but also one's own theory of art. Use it as a painting medium to express your own aesthetic expression and express what you want to say.
Luo Zhongli's oil painting "Father" shows farmers enduring the hardships of life and doing hard farm work for a living. The father's eyes firmly express his hope for life. This is the author's artistic language and the language of the work.
Only by thoroughly studying and analyzing the drawing methods of the head's facial features can the sketched avatar be created wonderfully.
The interpretation of facial features is divided into two steps, the first step is structural analysis, and the second step is characterization.
Sketching the facial features - interpretation of the eyes
Please read the following text in conjunction with the pictures, no nonsense
1. Structural analysis of the eyes
p>
Basic knowledge:
The eye is composed of the orbit, the eyelid (eyelid), and the eyeball. The eyeball is embedded in the orbit and covered by the upper and lower eyelids;
The eyebrows are divided into eyebrows and eyebrow tips. The eyebrows occupy 2/3 of the eyebrows at the inner edge of the orbit, and the tip of the eyebrows account for 1/3 of the eyebrows at the outer edge of the orbit.
Detailed tips:
Pay attention to the thickness of the eyelids and the relationship between the upper and lower eyelids. The upper and lower eyelids overlap at the inner corner of the eye, and the outer canthus is where the lower eyelid inserts upward into the edge of the upper eyelid.
Pay attention to the growth pattern of eyebrows. The eyebrows are upward and gradually toward both sides, and the tips of the eyebrows are toward both sides.
The eyes change from front to side, looking down or upward, and the eyeballs change into oval shapes.
2. Characterization of eyes and eyebrows
Analyze the characteristics of the eyes, mainly reflected in the shape of the upper and lower eyelids, such as phoenix eyes, almond eyes, triangular eyes, etc.;
< p> The brow length and shade also change in direction, such as willow leaf eyebrows, lying silkworm eyebrows, splayed eyebrows, etc.;The volume shaping of the eyeballs, the eyeballs should be black and more transparent, the pupils should be the darkest, and the iris should be closer to the highlight The darker, the darker parts are more transparent.
The thickness of the upper and lower eyelids reflects that the upper eyelid (eyelid) is deep, the lower eyelid is bright, and the middle part of the upper eyelid is the darkest.
The relationship between the virtual and real corners of the eyes, the corner of the eye that receives light is strong, and the corner of the eye that is backlit is virtual.
Usually we may think that a design that is clear and easy to understand is a good design, but for minimalist graphic design, the most wonderful and difficult challenge is how to ensure that the picture is simple And while being exquisite, it is also interesting or highly imaginative.
The so-called Less is more, minimalism is richness. This statement that seems like a contradiction and paradox is reflected in the "A Geo A Day" series of Italian designer Isabella Conticello. In the work, there is a vivid display and proof: using only minimalist lines, graphics and a small number of patterns, coupled with different colors, you can have endless creative designs.
The form is mainly expressed through perspective, three major faces, and five major tones, while the content mainly reflects a person’s understanding of the eyes and the degree of meticulous observation. It can be said that in order to express it vividly and vividly, It is indeed a dream to develop talking eyes without solid basic skills, keen observation and profound artistic accomplishment.
Through shadows, the relationship between light and dark can be emphasized.
Through the shape of the geometry itself and the light, shade and color of the geometry itself, a picture can be deeply expressed to reflect a social phenomenon or an abstract thing.
Through the color of the tone, The relationship between black, white and gray and the accuracy of the shape are expressed.
Colors can be presented through lines
