Free course: How to draw a character
Two round ears on the sides, a peanut-shaped face, and a tail that curls at the end. 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 one big circle. Wobbly is fine — wobbly circles make friendly monkeys.
A round ear on each side of the circle, sticking straight out like two handles.
A peanut shape inside the head — round at the top, pinched in the middle, round at the bottom.
Two dot eyes right on the pinch, two tiny nose holes under them, and a wide smile.
A round body under the head, then an arm curving down from each shoulder.
One long tail that curls up at the end, a banana in one hand, and two little feet. Now this monkey is yours.
Now draw a monkey hanging from something that isn't a tree.
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.
