How to Draw a Beard

In this guide, we will show you how to draw a beard. This instruction will be very important when drawing a person and building a human figure.

We will show how to draw a beard separately from the face. If you want instruction on how to draw a beard with a face, be sure to write to us about it in the comments.

So, to begin the learning process, prepare your favorite set of an artist, whether it be a pencil with paper or a graphic tablet. All is ready? Then let’s get started!

Step 1

First, depict the upper surface of the mustache with a line similar to the letter M. Mustaches come in all shapes, so don’t try to repeat everything exactly as in the example from the artists of Easydrawingart.com.

Step 2

Now, using two lines, we depict the lower surface of the mustache. Again, do not try to copy the mustache exactly as in our example.

Step 3

Now, using two lines on the sides, depict the top line of the beard, which is located on the cheeks. We made these lines very smooth, but you can make them a little more angular.

Step 4

Now go to the bottom and create a beard outline under the mustache. Your sketch becomes more like a beard drawing, doesn’t it?

Step 5

In this stage, your sketch becomes completely similar to a beard drawing. Give your beard a look either as in our example, or give any other shape.

Step 6

Let’s get into the beard texture now. To do this, sketch a large number of lines. These lines convey the texture of the hair and should be sketched from the roots to the tips.

Step 7

And at this stage, dear readers of Easydrawingart.com, you should show imagination. Paint the beard any color you want. It can be either natural colors, for example, brown, black, red or white, or more unusual.

We believe that this instruction on how to draw a beard was very simple. Be sure to go to the category with basic drawing tutorials to learn how to draw a person, and all his parts, such as eyes or nose.
