Step-by-Step Guide
-
Sketch the head and body Start with a large oval for the head and a smaller rectangle for the body, connected by a curved line for the neck.
-
Add the robe Draw two long rectangles extending from the body for the sleeves and a larger rectangle for the robe’s body, with a V-shape at the bottom for the folds.
-
Detail the face and hands Sketch a simple face with almond-shaped eyes, a small nose, and a gentle smile. Add hands holding a staff or a book.
-
Final touches Erase unnecessary guidelines and add shading to give depth. Include details like a bald head, a serene expression, and a soft glow around him if desired.
