It should fill most of the page with a margin all round.

关于此绘图

A pear is two forms pretending to be one: a small sphere sitting on a big one, with the waist between them smoothed over. Draw it as a snowman first and blend the join after - starting from the outline is how pears end up as blobs, because the outline is the least informative thing about the fruit.

Underneath, this is a single shaded mass like the apple; the subject lives in the silhouette and the surface marks.

一步

  1. 步 1

    Draw the overall mass first.

    One shape, one motion. A slightly lopsided mass drawn confidently beats a perfect one assembled from nervous strokes, because you can correct a shape and you cannot un-see hesitation.

    小心 Building the mass from many small safe strokes.

    检查支票 It should fill most of the page with a margin all round.

  2. 步 2

    Vary the outline so it stops looking geometric.

    Nothing organic is a perfect oval. Push the outline in and out where the subject actually does - the asymmetry IS the likeness.

    小心 Leaving the construction oval as the finished outline.

    检查支票 The outline should differ visibly from the oval underneath.

  3. 步 3

    Mark the centre with two light lines.

    Two light lines through the middle are the rulers for everything that follows. Without them the features drift off-centre a few millimetres at a time.

    小心 Skipping the axes because the shape looks simple.

    检查支票 The two lines should cross near the middle of the mass.

  4. 步 4

    Add the stalk or top.

    Whatever sits on top attaches INTO the form, not onto its outline - it comes out of a dip or a mound, and drawing that junction is what attaches it.

    小心 Balancing the stalk on the outline like a hat.

    检查支票 The top feature should overlap the mass's outline.

  5. 步 5

    Draw the dip or curve at the top.

    The hollow around the top is what makes the form read as having a top rather than an edge. One curve, and note which way it bows - it tells the viewer where their eye is.

    小心 Omitting the dip so the top sits on a flat line.

    检查支票 The dip should curve, not sit flat.

  6. 步 6

    Mark which way the light comes from.

    Pick a direction and commit. Every decision from here - shading, highlight, cast shadow - follows from this one, and changing your mind halfway is the classic way a drawing ends up lit from two directions.

    小心 Deferring the decision and shading by instinct.

    检查支票 You should be able to point at the light source.

  7. 步 7

    Darken the side away from the light.

    Work in one direction and build darkness in passes. Scrubbing back and forth gives an even grey - precisely the thing that makes a drawing look flat.

    小心 Scrubbing, and stopping two steps short of dark enough.

    检查支票 The dark side should be clearly darker than the mid tone.

  8. 步 8

    Add the bounced light.

    Leave a thin lighter strip right at the shadow-side edge - bounced light from the surface below. It is the single cheapest thing that makes a form read as round.

    小心 Running the shading tight to the outline.

    检查支票 A lighter line should separate shading from edge.

  9. 步 9

    Draw the highlight where the light hits.

    One highlight, small, off-centre on the lit side. Two symmetrical highlights read as plastic; a big one reads as wet.

    小心 A large or doubled highlight.

    检查支票 The highlight should be smaller than your thumbnail.

  10. 步 10

    Add the surface marks that say pear.

    Surface marks follow the form - they curve over the mass and fade near the highlight. Flat marks cancel the volume you just shaded into it.

    小心 Marks drawn flat across the curved surface.

    检查支票 Marks should bend with the surface.

  11. 步 11

    Add the cast shadow.

    Darkest at the contact point, softer as it stretches away from the light. It anchors the object; without it everything you shaded still floats.

    小心 An even grey puddle not touching the object.

    检查支票 The shadow should touch the object's base.

  12. 步 12

    Weight the outline and lose the construction.

    Weight the silhouette, erase the axes and the oval, and leave the interior marks light. The weight difference is what makes it look deliberate.

    小心 Equal weight everywhere.

    检查支票 Outline darkest, marks lightest, guides gone.

The finished drawing of a pear with the construction lines erased

你不会像这个样子, 也不应该。 这是用脚架的建筑, 而不是一个被人们迷惑的画画-- 重点是向你们展示哪条线是向导。

这一个教了你什么

What transfers is the standard light kit - core shadow inside the edge, bounced light at it, one small highlight, a cast shadow that anchors. Every shaded form you ever draw uses all four.

The pear introduces compound form: two simple solids blended into one silhouette, each keeping its own light behaviour - the top sphere carries its own small core shadow inside the big one's. That is the apple lesson squared, and the honest reason it sits at difficulty two.

你需要的东西

Anything that makes a mark. On paper, press lightly for the first few steps - most of what you draw early is scaffolding you will erase.

如果出错

If it looks like a blob, go back to the two spheres: small on top of large, then ONE smoothed S-curve down each side through the waist.

If it stands too straight, tilt the top sphere - real pears lean, and the lean is most of their character.

If the neck is wrong, it is too abrupt: the waist between the two spheres is a long soft curve, not a pinch.

人们对人们提出的问题

What shape is a pear really?
A small sphere blended onto a big one - a snowman with the waist smoothed over. Draw the two spheres first; the outline comes from them, not the other way round.
How do I shade a pear?
As two spheres sharing one light: the top form casts a soft shadow onto the shoulder of the bottom one, and each keeps its own core shadow and highlight.
Why does my pear look like a blob?
The construction was skipped. Without the two-sphere scaffold the outline has nothing to obey - rebuild it as small-on-large and the fruit appears.
Can I draw a pear on paper instead of the canvas?
Yes, and for a shading lesson paper is arguably better - a soft pencil gives you more range than a finger on glass. The printable sheet has every step, and a photographed result is measured the same way.
How do I start drawing a pear?
One oval, drawn in a single motion, then correct the silhouette where the real thing differs. The oval is scaffolding, not the outline.
How do I shade a pear?
Pick a light direction and commit, shade in one direction in passes, keep the darkest band just inside the edge, and leave one small off-centre highlight.
Why does my pear look flat?
Almost certainly range - no true dark anywhere and no untouched light left on the page. Go two steps darker than feels safe and leave the highlight alone.
Can a beginner draw a pear?
Yes - it is deliberately one of the simpler forms here, chosen so the shading can be the whole lesson.
Does a pear need a cast shadow?
Yes, always. Without one the form floats on the page however carefully you shaded it. Darkest at the contact point, softer as it stretches away.
