Free course: How to draw a character
Six steps, one pencil, about ten 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 one big wide curve, like a giant letter U that fills the bottom of your paper. That is the beard.
A thick band straight across the top of the beard, then a long pointy hat that flops over to the right with a bobble on the end.
Two short curves hanging down from the band, one on each side. They leave a gap in the beard for his face.
Two dot eyes, a round nose below them, and one short eyebrow above each eye.
One line from the bottom of the left cheek, dipping down and up to a point under the nose, then down and out to the right cheek.
A smile peeking out below the moustache, three short strands down the beard, and a buckle on the hat band. Now this Santa is yours.
Now draw Santa stuck halfway down a chimney.
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.
