How to Draw an Eye

Drawing a Traditional Eye

Draw a circle as sketch for the pupil of the eye.

Draw a horizontally-elongated oval. The lower portion of the oval and the circle touch each other. The upper portion of the oval doesn’t touch the upper part of the circle so as to occupy only about a fourth of the circle.

Draw a small circle at the center of the circle. Draw another smaller circle connected to the circle in the middle but at the lower right.

Draw an elongated triangle pointing to the right and curved. Draw a curve a little near the left end of the eye.

Draw curves inclined upward to resemble eyelashes. Draw a curve at the lower right end of the eye.

Refine, color, and add details!

Drawing a Cartoon Eye

Draw a parabolic-figure facing downward and closed at the base.

Draw a vertically-elongated oval in the middle. Draw another smaller oval inside that oval-shaped figure.

Draw a smaller oval at the upper left portion of the oval in step 2.

Draw a smooth elongated triangle pointing to the right and curved to resemble the brow.

Erase unnecessary lines and overlaps and trace the figure.
