Eyes Drawing Guide – by Gaby Niko
Guide from a Book: 50 Mistakes in Portrait Drawing and How to Fix Them by Gabriela Niko (@doodle_taffic) This is not a textbook — it’s a lovingly illustrated guide full of honest tips, clear visuals, fun exercises and real drawing struggles. Inside, you’ll find 50 of the most common mistakes artists make when drawing faces — with side-by-side comparisons and explanations of how to fix them. I created this book to help you draw more confidently, spot what’s off in your portraits, and enjoy the process (even when it gets messy!). I cover everything from eye symmetry and jawline angle, to hair structure, facial proportions, and those tiny, sneaky things that make a face feel off — even if it’s beautifully drawn.
