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 wide box with straight sides. It is the cookie wall of your house.
Two long lines up to a point, wider than the walls. Add a little chimney on one side.
Draw a bumpy line under the roof edge, with drips hanging down. Every drip can be a different size.
A door with a round top in the middle, and a square window on each side. Give each window a cross.
A candy cane on each side of the house, with stripes. Then gumdrops along the roof, like little bumps.
A round candy on the very top, and a curl of smoke from the chimney. Now this house is yours.
Now draw a gingerbread house where a mouse lives.
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.
