Free course: How to draw a character
Six steps, one pencil, about twelve minutes. Watch the video, follow along on paper, then print the practice sheet and draw it again.
Watch it first
Draw it step by step
New lines are purple. Lines you already drew turn light.
Draw a big U for the head. Leave the top open, because the hat sits there.
Close the top of the U with a wide brim that curls up at both ends. Put a tall crown on top with a dip in the middle.
Two dot eyes and a happy smile. Then a V under the chin for the bandana.
A shirt that starts at the bandana and gets wide at the shoulders. Add two vest lines and a belt.
One hand on the hip and one arm up high. Two legs down to pointy cowboy boots with a little heel.
A rope from the raised hand to a big loop in the air, then a hat band and a shiny buckle. Now this cowboy is yours.
Now draw a cowboy riding something that isn't a horse.
Practice on paper
Faint lines to trace, all six mini steps, and an empty box to draw your own. One page, works in black and white.
