How to Draw Wedding Rings

Drawing wedding rings, whether as a hobby, designing your own, for a friend or work related, can be fun, interesting and beautiful. Just with a piece of paper and pencil, you are on your way to begin drawing. These can be from a photo or your imagination. The rings can be simple or detailed, expensive or inexpensive. It is wonderful to learn and create drawings of you own.

• Begin with pencils and erasers, silver, gold or colored markers, drawing and tracing paper, photos, circle and oval templates. These are just some suggestions.


• Practice is always nice to do, whether freehand, using an art supply, or any object for a shape. It is best to start with large drawings, this helps you understand proper shapes, dimensions, detail and easier erasing.


• Lightly draw a basic circle for your first wedding ring. You can do one ring at a time, save the tracing paper for the other one later. This also helps save time.


• Stay inside your original circle and draw another circle, depending on the width of the band or perspective view. You can always erase inside width of band to create cuts or openings and reconnect lines in any format, when necessary.


• Showing the dimensions to help your wedding rings look real is not hard. Remember the closer part of the rings to you will be slightly larger, more detailed and any lines involved as with cut diamonds will be wider in the front and closer together in the distance.


• Place tracing paper over your ring and trace it. Turn over tracing paper and shade area behind ring with a soft lead pencil. Place tracing paper in position, ring side up, over or next to first ring. Now use a harder lead pencil and trace over your second ring.


• Having wedding rings drawn in place now you can detail or shade, color or intensify stones. Also add engravings.
