How to draw Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci

GRID STEP. You can print out the base construction lines and start drawing on tracing paper or you can draw the grid layout yourself using the following steps.
• Locate the head in advance and draw its approximate size using an oval • Draw 1 horizontal line above the head. Add 1 more line 5/6 closer. • Draw 1 horizontal line under the head. Below it, add 2 more lines at the height of the head and 1 line 4/6 closer. • Separate the head with a vertical line. This is the centre vertical line. Draw from it to the sides: -on the left 2 lines at a distance slightly narrower than the width of the head; -on the right, 2 lines at a distance slightly narrower than the width of the head plus 1 line much closer.

STEP 1. Separate the face with two lines. Trace a circle under the head, which will be the torso.

STEP 2. Draw the woman's neck. From the torso, sketch two arms and hands.

STEP 3. Outline the nose and mouth. Start drawing the silhouette of the dress with the hood. Erase excess lines.

STEP 4. Mark the edge of the hood on the head. Sketch a place for the eyes. Outline the collar and sleeves.

STEP 5. Draw the upper eyelid, nose and mouth. Draw two curly curls. Make the body parts more distinct. Outline the fingers. Erase the auxiliary lines.

STEP 6. Draw more hair. Add folds to the clothes. Outline the fingers.

STEP 7. Detail the facial features. Work on the hair. Make the dress more layered.

STEP 8. Draw the pupils. Finish with the hood and hair. Make a pattern and a couple of creases on the dress.
