Free course: How to draw a character
A big round ball, a little cap, and a branch to hang it on. 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 circle in the middle of the page. Leave room above it for the branch.
A small square on top of the ball. Its two sides stop where they touch the circle.
A long curved branch across the top, with little needles poking out. Then a line from the cap up to the branch, curling over the top.
One wavy line across the top of the ball and one across the bottom. Start and finish each one on the edge.
Four round dots in a line between the bands. Leave a space in the middle.
A little star in the middle space, and a curved shine near the top. Now this ornament is yours.
Now draw an ornament shaped like your favorite animal.
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.
