How our drawing guides work

Pick a drawing, grab paper and a pencil, and follow along one step at a time. Lines in pink are the ones to draw now. Lines in dark blue are already on your page. Some guides start with a light oval to help place the head or body, which you erase at the end.

Guides are marked easy, medium or hard. Easy guides suit ages 4 and up, and most take 10 to 15 minutes. New guides are added often.
