How to Draw a Heart With Wings – let’s Get Initiated!

Step 1

For the first step in our guide on how to draw a heart with wings, we’ll start with the heart itself. We’ve all seen thousands of heart shapes in our lives, but drawing just one heart can still be tricky. A simple one! For that reason, you may want to use a pencil to start with as you get the shape right. Once you’re happy with how this heart shape looks, you’re ready to start adding the wings in the next few steps!

Step 2

When you draw the wings for this image, we’ll draw them section by section as we build them. For this first section, you’ll draw a long, skinny shape directly along the sides of the heart. These shapes will have sharp, rounded tips at the top. You can then finish this step by adding some feather details to the shape you just drew. These sections will be made up of many small, sharp shapes along the length of the one you just drew. Then you are keen to tote on to step 3!

Step 3

As we mentioned earlier in this guide, the easiest way to draw wings like this is to take it slow and do it section by section. For that cause, we will continue to create the feathers. To do this, we’ll draw more feather details like the ones you added in the previous step. These little individual shapes will be a bit longer than the ones you just drew, and that will help lengthen the wings nicely.

Step 4

In this fourth step of drawing your winged heart, we’ll finish the structure of the wings before adding some final details in the next step. To do this, add another layer of the shapes you’ve been drawing in the previous step. Two steps. These will also be longer than the other rows, and this should be the longest row overall. Then all the structural details of the wings will be done, and in the next step, we can focus on finishing the final touches in step 5.

Step 5

As promised, this step of our guide on drawing a heart with wings will be all about adding the details and finishing touches to your image. Most of these details will be pretty simple. All you need to do is add a few small lines to the various shapes you’ve used to build the wing structure in the previous steps. Some of these will be slightly curved, and others will be small and straight, depending on their placement on the wings. 

That will fill in the final details, but before you move on to the final step, you might as well add a few details of your own! These could retain making the wings larger, adding some patterns to the seat shape, or even changing the body of the main heart. You can also draw a background or add text to make this a card for someone you care about. These are just a few ideas you could go with, but we look forward to seeing what else you come up with for this pretty drawing!

Step 6

This sixth and final step of drawing your heart with wings is where you can enjoy adding amazing colors to your artwork. In our reference image, we chose some lovely reds for the heart while using some pretty blues and grays for the wings. However, these colors are just a suggestion! You could use many amazing colors to finish this image, and feel free to use whatever amazing colors you want. 

You could use all your favorite colors and make each little wing shape a different color to get an idea. Then, once you know what colors to use, you can play around with your favorite art mediums. Colored pens or pencils could toil great for this photo, as there are smaller builds to color in, but anything you use, chooses great!
