Let’s Draw Gary from SpongeBob!

Today, we’re going to learn how to draw Gary, the cute snail from SpongeBob SquarePants. Get your markers, paper, and coloring tools ready, and let’s have some fun!

What You Need

Before we start, make sure you have these things:

  • Markers
  • Paper (marker paper is best so the colors don’t go through)
  • Colors for coloring

Step 1: Drawing Gary’s Eyes

1. First Eye: Draw a big circle in the top left corner of your paper for Gary’s first eye.

2. Second Eye: Draw another circle that overlaps the first one a little bit. Try to make them the same size.

3. Pupils: Inside each eye, draw a smaller circle and color it in for the pupils.

Step 2: Connecting the Eyes

1. Eyelids: Draw a curve from the bottom of the right eye downwards to make the long part of Gary’s eye. Do the same for the left eye and connect them at the bottom.

Step 3: Sketching Gary’s Body

1. Body Outline: Draw a line that curves back from the eyes to start Gary’s body.

2. Mouth: Draw a curved line for Gary’s mouth. It can be open or closed.

3. Body Shape: Draw the other side of Gary’s body, making sure it looks like the first side.

Step 4: Adding the Shell

1. Shell Base: Draw a curve for the bottom of Gary’s shell.

2. Top of the Shell: Draw a small bump and then a big curve that goes back to the eye to make the top of the shell.

3. Shell Details: Add some curves to show the shell’s texture. We’ll add more details when we color.

Step 5: Finishing the Body

1. Bottom Curve: Draw a curve that goes out and then back in to finish the bottom of Gary’s body.

2. Wavy Lines: Draw a wavy line along the back, like SpongeBob’s body outline.

Step 6: Coloring Gary

1. Pick Your Colors: Use colors like pink, orange, and purple. If you have special markers, you can use those too.

2. Coloring: Start coloring Gary’s body. You can go fast or take your time.

3. Add Details: Use orange for a ring around the pupils, red for the swirl on his shell, and purple dots on the shell.

Step 7: Final Touches

1. Outline Gary: Make a thicker outline around Gary to give him a cartoon look. You can do this quickly or take your time.

2. Check Your Drawing: Look at your drawing and see how awesome it is!
