Step 1: Reach Out To Your Inner Artist
Before you can create a goddess that reflects your innermost longing and desires, it’s important to do a little soul-searching and dig deep into the layers of your personality. Reach out to your inner artist and use the energy of your creativity to draw forth a vision of the goddess. To do this, find a calm space where you can spend some quiet time and let your imagination wander into unknown places of your mind. Open your heart and let the naturally creative process of drawing take over.
Step 2: Choose Your Theme
Once you’re in a comfortable and creative space, decide what kind of goddess you want to create. Do you want her to be a warrior-like queen that symbolizes strength, or a humble and gentle goddess that stands for hope and love? Do you want her to represent nature, or a more ethereal realm? Consider what qualities the goddess should embody, and decide on a theme that speaks to you.
Step 3: Visualize Her Image
Once you’ve nailed down your theme, start to get a clear mental picture of the goddess you will draw. Close your eyes and conjure up a vivid image of what she looks like. Is she sitting, standing, or floating? Does she have wings, a halo, or a magical aura around her? Visualize every single detail, from her face and clothing to her pose and body characteristics. This step is essential for creating an accurate portrayal of your goddess.
Step 4: Pencil Out the Outline
Now that you clearly see her, it’s time to start drawing. Begin with a light pencil outline, and use basic shapes to depict your goddess. Starting with the head, work your way down to the arms and legs, and then on to the finer details like clothing and accessories. Pause and take a look at your image as you go, making sure you’re happy with the placement of each element before adding the next part.
Step 5: Draw with Precision
When you reach the tiny parts of the drawing like facial features and jewelry, pay close attention to each line and shape. As the goddess slowly begins to take form, you may be tempted to take shortcuts, but resist the temptation! Taking time and dedication to perfect each line and shape will give your drawing that extra bit of finesse. And when everything’s in place, you’ll have a uniquely beautiful drawing of a goddess.
Step 6: Fill in the Color
Once the outline is complete, add color to your drawing. For extra effect, try using brush strokes and tricks to give your drawing dimension and character. When selecting colors, remember to use subtle shades and hues to capture the delicate beauty of a goddess. Rich tones of purple, blue and gold are a great place to start, but don’t be afraid to experiment and explore different shades. Revel in the process of bringing your goddess to life.
Step 7: Add Blending and Special Effects
Finally, add in some special effects and blending with the shades you have already used. This will give your goddess a more life-like look, and will bring out the details more. Try shading her hair, adding a hint of color to her eyes, or accentuating her wings. These tiny details can really make your goddess stand out!
Step 8: Let the Goddess Come Alive
You can spend as much or as little time as you wish on this step. When you think she’s done, step back, admire your work and behold in awe the goddess you have created. Allow yourself to use your imagination, let your creativity flow and enjoy the process of seeing the image in your mind come to life on the paper. You have now drawn a goddess!
Step 9: Refine the Details
Now that your goddess is in place, it’s time to refine any details that need attention. Even the slightest misplacement of a line or a shade can change the entire mood of the drawing. As you go over the drawing, be sure to zoom in and out to notice any imperfections that need to be tightened up. Refine the drawing until you are completely satisfied.
Step 10: Embrace Your Goddess
You have now brought your goddess to life through art – it’s time to celebrate and show her off to family and friends! Embrace your creation and revel in the beauty of your work. And don’t forget to thank the goddess within you – she made it all possible!
