Making shapes and proportions

I am drawing a heart shaped face today so first draw a heart in centre of paper horizontally and then I traced sides of face by dragging lines in downward direction from sides of heart and this is how I am drawing jawlines and chin.

Here I draw ears of this girl and I traced forehead shape by dragging lines at top of both ears and combining these lines by drawing a round shape of head and forehead.

It's a turn now to add facial features shapes so first I simply drawn eyes of longitudinal shape and I also draw lid line and eyebrows at top of eyes.I tried to maintain equal distance in centre of eyes from both sides.From center of eyes I drawn an imagnery line in downward direction to give proper and aligned shape to nose so here in this way I give shape to nose.I draw a small heart shape to make shape of lips.

I erase heart shape of face from top and sides and also erase small heart I made for giving shape to lips.I tried to make margins of face and features more darker to give them more prominence.

Finally I draw hair of that girl.I give shape to hair in a way that some of them are pointing forward and passing from ears and remaining are at back of neck.

Defining each shape through shading

Now it's a time to draw eyes perfectly so I started by making an eye ball in eye in which I made a more darker and denser part of eye which was jet black in colour but little two holes are showing that eyes are shinning and these are giving more originality.Then I drawn eyelashes at upper and lower lash line both but upper lashes are more denser and longer.I made outer corners of eyes more dense and bold to give them a big appearance.

In next step I have drawn hair more denser, thicker and beautiful so at outer corners I tried to give a more darker shake to hair so that they may look more prominent.In general I give a good shade to overall hair.

Achieving a final result

I achieved a good final result by shading lips softly and by shading jaw lines and chin with soft hands.Left part of neck have a good grey shade showing shadow of other side but right side of neck have a dark shade showing a little shadow originating from side of neck.

¡Hola! Que gusto que te hayas animado a participar en el Steemit Challenge: Explora tu creatividad con el dibujo artístico, en su semana 6.

Observaciones y recomendaciones:

Realizaste un boceto el cual te permitió recrear tu boceto de retrato, como sugerencia te recomiendo que la zona del mentón y la frente no las hagas tan cortas, ya que puede apreciarse una pequeña desproporcion en tu dibujo.

Respecto al sombreado, fuese sido positivo que agregaras zonas de oscuridad e iluminación y en lugar de marcar los contornos, buscaras de hacer un degradado sutil para un resultado aún más natural. Sin embargo, fue un buen trabajo en general.
