How to draw an Earth Faerie : Printable Version

You will just be drawing the top half of an Earth Faerie. Start by drawing two almost circular shapes for the head and body. Try to copy the shapes here as closely as possible. You will want the head to go in where the eye will be and to finish in a slight point.

Divide your head into four quarters. This will make it much easier to know where to place the facial features. Then join the head and body together with a neck shape. Finally add your Earth Faerie's waist.

Draw two large eyes in the positions shown here. Then you need to add the arms, don't forget to add a line where your Faerie's left arm goes across her waist.

Erase all the extra lines and you should be left with something like this. Draw on a curved line for the mouth and add her left ear.

Hands are one of the trickiest things to draw. Don't feel bad if it takes you several attempts to get them in the right position.

Erase the extra lines and add a thumb to her left hand. About half way through each eye draw a curved line for the eyelid. Go over this a couple of times to make it darker than your over lines.

Erase the line seperating the ear from the head. Then draw in your Faerie's pupils and add a curved line for the bottom of your Faerie's mouth.

Now add your Faerie's hair. Remember each Earth Faerie is different so if you want to style the hair differently that is totally fine. Lastly give your Faerie some clothes, here we have used the standard Earth Faerie dress although you can be more creative if you wish. Don't forget to add a small curved line for the nose.

When you erase all the extra lines you will see that your Faerie is really beginning to take shape.

Add wings and a little more detail to each eye.

Give your Faerie some fingers, be careful, most Faeries do only have the 5 :) Draw lips around the mouth outline you created.

Erase the few extra lines around your Faeries hands and eyes.

Add in the little bits of detail such as eyebrows, chest bone and any decorations you wish to give her (hair, dress, jewels etc). Then smile, you have just drawn your first Earth Faerie!

To make your picture look truly amazing add some colour and shading.
