Free course: How to draw a character
Six steps, one pencil, about eight 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 four fat arms with round tips, like a star missing one point.
Fill the gap with one more arm. Give it a thin wrist and a round hand, ready to wave.
Two dot eyes in the middle and a big smile underneath.
One wavy line under the starfish, and a little pebble beside it.
Three little dots on each arm. Starfish are bumpy all over.
Three bubbles floating up and a second pebble on the sand. Now this starfish is yours.
Now draw a starfish with more than five arms.
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.
