Learn how to draw a pair of beautiful realistic eyes from the ¾ view. Follow along with me as I take you step by step, with full narration as we go from a blank sketchbook to a polished drawing!
This tutorial has been my longest to date! It’s originally a 6 hour video and there were many details I just couldn’t cut out! Do you guys prefer less detail or more detail? I’m never sure, so please let me know!
Also, do you prefer hour-long tutorials or short bite-sized ones? Let me know so I can adjust the length to suit you :) Thank you so much for watching and supporting my channel :)
If you completed this tutorial, congratulations!!! Please share your eye drawings with me on Pinterest, I would LOVE to see them!!!: www.pinterest.ca/pin/51531038...

You are the BEST art instruction KZfaq channel, by far. I’ve seen other videos and yours is always the easiest to grasp and understand, and always so detailed. Thank you so much!! My art has improved so much because of you.

Do you know, I have subscribed to RapidFireArt now for 2.5 - 3 years and after watching 100s of hours of videos probably by the same number of different artists, Darlene of RapidFireArt is by far the best tutor, head and shoulders above the rest in giving clear very easy to follow instructions but not only that, Darlene gives tips and tricks on how NOT to spend money ( doesn't encourage you to run out and buy a $100+ box of pencils, how to make a kneadable eraser). Outstanding tutorials RapidFireArt, many thanks.
