Free course: How to draw a character
Six steps, one pencil, about eight 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 cup shape that is wider at the top than at the bottom. Use straight lines, like paper.
Draw three bumps on each side, each one smaller than the one below. Wobbly is fine.
Draw a smile-shaped line across each dip. Now you have three stacked swirls.
Draw a tall thin candle on top, a tiny wick, and a flame shaped like a raindrop.
Draw four lines down the wrapper. Let them lean in a little at the bottom.
Scatter little dashes on the frosting, all pointing different ways. Add a line for the table.
Now draw a cupcake for someone's very unusual birthday.
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.
