How to Draw Tears

Hello everyone, I'm back today with an exciting tutorial that is going to teach you how to draw tears, step by step. Yes, I know what your thinking, “tears”? My response to that is simple, why not? Tears is something that our bodies produce naturally when we get emotional. Some people cry when they are sad, mad, scared, happy, or when they are in pain. What is a tear though? Well, tears are made by our tear glands. These glands are located inside of our upper lids. Tears in general keep the eye lubricated, and they also help protect our eyes from damage and debris. Did you know that your eyes produce tears every time you blink? It's true, the eyelid spreads tears all over the surface of the eye. When you blink, that is your body telling you that it is time to lubricate the eye, because the eyeball has been exposed to air too long. Did you ever notice that whenever you cry you get a runny nose too? The reason for this is simple. Look in a mirror, and look at the bottom lid of your eye, you will see a small pin like dot. This dot is actually a tube that carries tears to the back of your nose, which then leads to a runny snotty nose. Crying is not the only thing that makes your eyes water. In the spring, some people may suffer from allergies which will lead to sniffing, sneezing, and tearing. Anyway, this is going to be a simple lesson that will teach you "how to draw tears", step by step. I had a lot of fun drawing out the many different types of tears that we are all familiar with. Have fun with this tutorial, and be sure to use your newly learned skill. I will be back soon with more drawing fun.
