Now, this is not about talking about the word itself but rather about how to use the pencil to be able to draw, which is much more fun than knowing grammar or spelling, so the main topic is learning to draw a nose.

Front nose drawing

1. First you must take into account the shape of the nose and think about how you want to make it: chubby or pointed, in addition to making sure it fits perfectly and does not look like a doodle, which would lower your morale when you start to make strokes.
2. Draw a large circle in the center of the sheet, you have to see if you are drawing a face so you have to know the exact place in the center of the face where you are going to place it, otherwise you make the strokes in the part where you want of the sheet or notebook.
3. Draw a rectangle from the center of each side of the circle upwards, keeping in mind that it must be thin and very elongated, depending on the size of the nose you want to draw, so try to bring it up as much as possible.
4. Draw half a circle in the lower part of the circle that protrudes from it to the sides, but without closing it completely so that the ends are outward and these will be joined to the rectangle by two straight lines.
5. If you have done well in these first strokes, at first sight you should see a kind of bell with a circle inside it, apart from a rectangle that completely crosses the drawing, which will help you to continue making the strokes because we are not finished yet.
6. Trace the lines of the rectangle until they touch the arc that you drew and extend it to the line of the circle joining the two ends or ends at the end, seeing the drawing now it looks like a three-dimensional cone if you have done the lines well and it is time for the special touches.
7. With the pencil lying down, you are going to shade the line of the rectangle from above until it ends at the bottom on the sides of the circle in the part of the arc, if you do it well you should have half a shaded circle and the lines of the rectangle upwards.
8. At the ends of the cone, you are going to draw a small line on each side that will be the wings of the nose and which at the end of everything you will have to review so that they can be seen well defined, in this step you already begin to see the nose.
9. Draw a line in the lower part of the circle making a semicircle and taking it to the sides in soft waves downwards that come to be the nostrils or the holes on the sides of the septum, achieving your nose, now you just have to erase and continue shading.

Another way to trace the nose

1. Use the contour of a face to trace the nose well and thus guide yourself well where you are going to place it or what is the specific place where it is taking into account the place of the eyes and the mouth to trace the point to start drawing it.
2. Draw a line from the top of the head down and another line from one side to the other using below the ears as a reference, this can make you know where to draw the nose from the previous point.
3. Use the point of intersection or center to begin to make the strokes of the nose by drawing a large circle and two smaller ones on each side.
4. Under the big circle, draw a stronger line that protrudes towards the circles on the sides and in the small ones, one that traces the sides to make the wings of the nose.
5. Erase the traces that are left over from all the circles and so you have a perfect nose the size of the drawing you want to make, try to do it yourself and you will see that it is easy.

Profile nose

1. These strokes are easier to do so you should not have any difficulty when starting to make your drawing.
2. You just have to draw a circle in the center of the sheet where you are going to draw the face and a smaller one next to the big one.
3. Draw a semi-curve that becomes the nostril, you also lengthen this line to make the nose fin.
4. Follow the outline line to below the big circle to make the groove between the nose and the mouth and then start shading all the part of the nose that you already have drawn.
5. Remember that the hole in the nostril must be blacker, simulating the hole inward that you must reflect in the stroke.
6. Ready, you already have your nose drawn so what you have to do is continue shading to retouch it.
7. Remember that in each of the drawings you must take into account the possibility of practicing enough because the first ones will not work out and this can help you learn to draw the nose better.
