Place the triangles on your bangs so that they are at different heights on the bangs.ĭraw a square around the face and round the top two corners with the live corner widgets like you did in the middle of step 1. You can also just draw the triangles using the pen tool (p). When you follow that tutorial I would make the triangles skinner so they look more like the triangles in the picture above. This will make sense a little later, but to draw a triangle watch this tutorial here. What I like to do is put little triangles in the bangs. I like to make circular mouths with the ellipse tool because they are much easier but if you want to create a different mouth you can draw it on with the pencil tool (n).ĭraw a half circle with the pen tool (p) like the one shown above. With the pencil tool (n), draw on some eyebrows and add a mouth. For added measure, I like to then go in and select half of the face and the nose and use the shape builder tool (Shift M) to join them together, but if you think you might want to edit the nose later don’t do it. Using the ellipse tool (L), draw a circle and line it up in the center of the face. You can delete it by holding down alt and clicking on the part of the rectangle you want to delete. Select both the rectangle and the face and using the shape builder tool (shift M), delete the part of the rectangle that does not overlap with the face. Using your rectangle tool (M), draw a rectangle to cover half of the face.

The live corner widgets are the little blue circles that appear every time you have a corner anchor selected. Make sure the bottom two anchors are selected and pull up on your two live corner widgets until the corners are completely rounded. I apologize in advance for this tutorial because it is so long, but I underestimated how long it would take to complete this tutorial.ĭraw a rectangle with your rectangle tool (M) making sure the height is slightly longer than the width. Some of you have mentioned in the past that people are hard for you to draw in Adobe Illustrator so I thought I would show you a simple and easy way that I use to create flat design people. I am trying to take on projects that are challenging for me and I want to encourage you guys to do the same.
