Are you ready to have some fun with drawing? Today, we’re going to create a cute picture step by step. Grab your markers, paper, and coloring tools, and let’s get started!
First, let’s draw a big circle right in the middle of your paper. This circle will be the head of our character.
Now, let’s add some features to the face. Draw a tiny nose on the bottom left side of the circle. Since our character is looking down, make the nose small and a little bit sticking out.
Next, draw closed eyes near the nose. You can add some eyelashes to make it look extra cute!
For the ears, draw a backward “C” shape on one side of the head. Add a little line inside the ear to make it look more real.
Now, let’s give our character some hair! You can draw a zigzag line connecting to the ear or use an “S” shape for a different style. Feel free to add a bumpy line on top for a ponytail or bun. You can even add a little flower to make it look cute!
Let’s move on to the body. Draw two lines going down from the head. Make sure they are wider apart at the bottom. Connect these lines at the bottom to make the torso.
Next, draw the feet sticking out from the back. For one foot, draw a backward “C” shape, and for the other foot, draw just part of it to make it look like it’s behind.
To draw the hands, make a “U” shape that goes up and back down, like a prayer position. Add an upside-down “U” to finish the hands and a small line for the wrist. If you want, you can draw another hand behind the first one to make it look more real.
For the shirt, draw a slanted line across the bottom of the torso. If you want, you can add a little bed next to your character, but we’ll keep it simple for now.
Now it’s time to color your drawing! Use your favorite colors to bring your character to life. Take your time and have fun!
Great job! You’ve finished your cute drawing. We hope you had a lot of fun creating your character. Show off your artwork to your friends and family, and keep on drawing!
Character Storytelling: Now that you’ve drawn your character, let’s give them a story! Think about who your character is. What is their name? Where do they live? What do they like to do? Write a short story or tell a friend about your character’s adventures. This will help you think creatively and bring your drawing to life with a fun background story.
Observation Walk: Take a walk around your home or outside and look for different shapes that remind you of the shapes you used in your drawing. Can you find circles, “C” shapes, or zigzag lines in nature or in objects around you? Draw or take pictures of what you find and share them with your class. This will help you see how shapes are used in everyday life.
Color Mixing Experiment: Use your coloring tools to experiment with mixing colors. Try blending two colors together to see what new color you can create. For example, what happens when you mix blue and yellow? Use these new colors to add more details to your drawing or create a new drawing. This activity will help you understand how colors work together and enhance your artwork.
