How to Draw a gymnast on the balance beam

This video tutorial from Drawing Now demonstrates the drawing of a gymnast doing a routine on the balance beam. Her look of concentration evokes the drama and strength of both will and body required by this ancient sport. Learn to evoke that same feeling in your drawing by watching this video. Here are some instructions from the artist:

1. Draw structure for the human by creating 3 circles for the head, upper and below body. Then create lines as guides to make the legs and feet. 2. Sketch face details and hair. After sketching is done start to color it using brush tool. 3. Add shadow effects and motif on clothes. 4. Outline it by using pencil tool. Add more shadow and highlights.
