Snakes have a stable negative aura and reputation- so formed their relationship with man for many centuries and millennia. There are many reasons for this, the main one being that any encounter with a snake can be the last. But we will have to meet with it only on a sheet of paper: we will deal with the question of how to draw a snake in pencil. And try to understand it better.
We take in hand a pencil
Drawing a snake is very interesting.This very expressive being has a vivid personality and personality. You ask: "How to draw a snake?" Yes, as well as any other beast, but first you should carefully look at it. This animal has no limbs, but it moves fairly quickly. The snake has learned this for millions of years. And by the expressiveness of the lines, their variability and tension in every second, it simply has no equal, not only in the animal world. But the principles of realistic drawing are one for all the living and nonliving world that surrounds us. All that we draw is to be correctly arranged on a sheet of paper and properly constructed.
Hearing the question of how to draw a step-by-step snake,we can say that the phrase "consistently from simple to complex" will always be a correct and universal answer to it. The whole logic of snake coils and rings can be comprehended by presenting where and why it is directed at a given time, on whom it hunts and to whom it creeps, hiding among stones and vegetation. All this picture should be built in the imagination, with light strokes, sketching our snake on a piece of paper.
Working through the details
The most naive answer to the question:"How to draw a snake?" sounds very simple. Indeed, there is nothing easier than to draw one thick winding line. But such a snake will not be expressive, nor beautiful, nor terrible. And only one can become an artist, who will feel the absurdity of such a simple answer to such a difficult question. And you just need to try to feel and understand all the tension with which the snake wriggles between the stones and prepares for a swift jump. With each successfully drawn and built snake coil, we are gradually approaching the answer to the question of how to draw a snake. And only by constructing well and detailing the entire reptile, you can hone the small details and work out the form of chiaroscuro. It is worth paying attention and snake scales, and small eyes-beads, and a characteristic bifurcated language. The open mouth with two curved poisonous teeth will give special charm to the drawing.
We generalize the figure
At the final stage of drawing, we try to look at the whole of our work.
