Of course, try to depict yourself in wooden dolls in wedding dresses. If this is very difficult for you, simply portray the abstract bride and groom. Prepare brushes and paints and get to work.

We will prepare all the necessary accessories for work

To get started, make sure your wooden dolls are perfectly smooth. Take the doll in front of you and draw eyes and hair with a mechanical pencil. Do not pay attention to details. Just carefully identify the most important facial features. Unnecessary details will add you trouble when you pick up a brush.

Now you need to draw your hands. For the figurine of the bride, draw smooth rounded lines that resemble hands. Connect the front and back lines that form the bride's dress. As for the groom, also depict the hands, and also make a V-neck in place of the jacket.

Now color the hair of the bride and groom. It’s best to use a wide brush to get it neat. You can also add a mustache and sideburns to the groom. A thin brush is best for this. Remember to rinse your brush from time to time..

Now you need to highlight the groom's shirt, for which we will use white acrylic paint. Also draw a tie with a pencil. After the bride’s hair has dried, you can proceed to the dress. Color it with white paints with a wide brush. Let the paint dry and apply another coat..

Next, we colorize the groom's suit using gray paints. Do not forget to leave a place for hands. Using a toothpick, draw the eyes of the bride and groom. Also add a pearl necklace to the bride with white dots..
