Owls of this type also tend to have a sort of dark outline are around the sides of their face so darken that as well.ĭraw the darker feathers around the neck area (between the two sets of light feathers) with short strokes darker at the base and lighter toward their outer ends.

Keep in mind that the owl’s eyes are basically round but their top portion will be slightly covered by the feathers. Step 2 – Draw the Basic Shapes of the Head Owl face line drawing with construction linesīased on the guides from the previous step draw the various features of the owl’s head and face such as the eyes, beak, “horns” and various patterns of it’s face as well as the smaller curves of the outline of it’s head. Next draw the outer shape of the head followed by the two angled lines that will establish the “horns” (its a horned owl) and “eyebrow” feathers.įinally draw the shape of the face which in this case is basically a set of three curves. This line will help you determine the middle of your drawing area and insure that both halves of the face/head are relatively even in width. The first thing you want to draw is a straight vertical line. Step 1 – Draw the Construction Lines for the Owl’s Head Owl face construction linesĭraw several guide/construction lines to help you establish the basic shape and major proportions of the owl’s head. If you are drawing using pencil and paper you should make very light strokes for the line portion of the drawing. Please note that some of the construction lines in this tutorial have been made darker so that they are easier to see. This tutorial explains how to draw an owl’s face and head step by step from the front view and provides pencil drawing examples for each step.
