Sometimes you are faced with the task of describing a person. This is usually necessary when you are telling your friends about an incident that happened to you and the person with whom they are not familiar and have never seen. Or, such a need arises when you write a post on your blog. It is important for you to tell about a person so that your readers will form a clear impression of his appearance, character and habits.
Instructions
Step 1
Start by describing his appearance. Indicate his height and build, some features of his physique: disproportionately long arms, short neck, large ears or hands - everything that can catch your eye at first glance. Describe the person's face - hair and eye color, distinctive features that attract attention, manner of speaking and looking.
Step 2
Tell us about the manner of dressing and tastes in clothes, what colors and styles the person prefers. If we are talking about a woman, you can talk about her manner of applying decorative cosmetics, about what kind of perfume she uses. On this, perhaps, the description of the appearance can be completed.
Step 3
As you can imagine, appearance tells little about a person's character, therefore the main part of the description is a psychological portrait. Tell us about the characteristic habits of your character, how and in what they are manifested, indicate the reasons why they were formed in this way. Here you can mention the family in which he grew up and the order that reigned in it. This will tell the audience a lot, since the foundations of character and worldview are laid in childhood and often under the influence of parents, thanks to or in spite of him. Mention those events that could have left their mark on a person's personality.
Step 4
Tell about those cases and situations when a person had the opportunity and showed himself from one side or another, about his reactions to some events. We think that the psychological portrait can also be completed on this. By this time, a clear and complete image of a person whom they have never seen has already appeared in front of those who listened to your story, and all this thanks to your masterful artistic description.
