lesson 1: the eye

Start with a circle.

Draw the eyelids by making two arcing lines through the circle and a smaller circle for the iris and a smaller filled in circle for the pupil

Add eye lashes and shade.

Also doing something to indicate the eye is shiny is usually a neat touch.

the simple eye, Anime eye, isn't much less complicated it just depends on what style your going for. its honestly just a little less sculpted and the iris is bigger
