Free course: How to draw a character
A frame, a face, and you in the middle. 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 rectangle, then a smaller one inside it. Your picture goes in the middle.
Draw a big round head in the top half of the picture. Leave room above it for your hair.
Two short lines for your neck, then shoulders sloping out to the frame. Add an ear on each side.
Look in a mirror and draw what you see. Your eyes sit on the middle line, then a little button nose and your smile.
Draw your own hair: messy, curly, long, or spiky. Add a collar, and a little line across each frame corner.
Two eyebrows, a pencil under the frame, and a little heart in the corner. Now this portrait is yours.
Now draw yourself as you think you'll look in twenty years.
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.
