BEGINNINGS
Decide on your pose. Have the character doing something. A pose where the subject is just standing is not as interesting.

You may want to use a piece of scratch paper to work out the position of your characters arms and legs.

Draw a stick figure in the position you want your character to be in. Next, draw the arms and legs, and body around the stick figure.  The fairy has long arms and legs, but they have some slight curves to them also.

Once you have the basic shape worked out, then erase the extra lines of the stick figure.

FACE
Keep the face simple. Our example is in profile. The eyes are halfway between the top of the head and the chin. The eyes are simply a curved line going downward for the eyelid and a dash below that for the eye. The nose is just a triangle, and the mouth is a curved line for the upper lip and a little half-circle for the bottom lip. The ear is pointed, but if you have problems with the ear, you can cover it up with hair.

Keep the hair simple, draw it like long waves.

HANDS
The hands start out not quite square; the thumb is like a peanut off to one side. The fingers are four lines spaced evenly apart, and then draw a second line for each finger.

FEET
The feet are three circles, a big one for the heel, a small one for the ball of the foot, and a little one to be the end of the big toe. Draw lines across the top and the bottom of the circles to make the basic foot shape; remember the bottom curves up a little, and the top gets higher by the ankle.

WINGS
The butterfly wings may take some time to work out. They are like two triangles; one above is big and tilted outward, and the one below is thin and tilted downward. Use a separate piece of scratch paper and work out your ideas before drawing them on your project. Use long curvy lines to give the wings character. Draw circles, patterns, or diamonds on the wings.

CLOTHING
This example shows her dressed in leaves. You can design clothing from flowers, feathers, or anything. Some fairies may make cloth out of cocoon silk, so they might have flowing robes or dresses.

Color is your choice since it is a fantasy creature anything goes.

Give your fairy a world. Put her in a garden, a cave, or inside a tree hole. Have big flowers growing over her, so she looks small. Give her some friends like a robin or a squirrel, but make them bigger than she is.

PRINTABLE PROJECT NOTES

Start with a pencil that draws lightly and is easy to erase, like a 2b or hb pencil. You will draw the first part lightly and you will want to erase some of the beginning steps when you get further along.

The dancer's pose is always extreme and often it is unnatural. In our illustration, the dancer is leaping with one leg far forward and one far back. A note about the anatomy: because of the human hip joint one foot (forward) will be seen from the side and the other foot (back) is turned so you see it from the top.

Start with an "articulated stick figure," where the elbows and knees and other joints are drawn with circles to indicate the bends in the arms and legs. This will help you work out the design and the pose of the figure.

Draw the shape of the arms and the legs around the stick figure. The arms and legs are not straight but have curves where the muscles are.  As you work out the design look for the lines that flow gracefully and develop them so the picture is drawn gracefully.

After you have outlined the body then erase the stick figure you used to work out pose.

Keep the hands and the face simple just use a few lines to express them.

Draw the costume last after you have the body and the pose all worked out.

OUTLINE THE BODY

Start with an outline. Make an oval for the head. The head is about 1/4 of the length of the bird. The body is two lines that curve out and down and form a letter "U"

WINGS
The wings are just suggested by two lines that go down each side of the body; they are curved first in then outward.

GUIDELINES
Use a guideline down the center of the owl to help keep things even. (Draw this lightly so you can erase it later.) Another guideline across the head helps to keep the eyes level with each other and in the middle.

EYES AND FACE
The eyebrows start just outside the middle and point to the ear feathers. The ear feathers are like triangles but fuzzy on the outside edge. The eyes are circles that touch the eyebrows. There is a dark ring around the eyes. They do not need to be perfectly round, but the pupil does, you might want to trace a button or coin to make the pupil round. Leave a little square to be the shiny spot it will make the eyes look glassy.

There are three stripes around the eyes and five on the forehead.

The beak is a thin triangle that starts halfway down the face. There are feathers at the top of the beak so it looks a little fuzzy.

FEATHERS
Draw some guideline for the rows of feathers. There are stripes on the feathers. Draw the feathers like the letter "U" but shade the stripes on the bottom of each feather.

The feathers on the wings tilt down and outward.

The tail has four or five feathers. They are short and rounded.

FEET AND TALONS
The feet are bony. Start them as circles where the talons are and the knuckle joint right behind it. The leg is just two lines disappearing into the feathers. There are four claws but only two or three show, so if they are hard to draw just do two, one each foot. The talons are very long and sharp they have a slight curve.

COLOR
Color the owl a light brown and have the stripes on the feathers to be a darker brown. The stripes on the face and chest are black. The talons and beak are the darkest black. The feet are brownish and orange.

This airplane shape has very few straight lines. The wings are curved slightly, the rudder and stabilizers are curved or oval.

The fuselage has a straight line from the cockpit to the rudder and the rudder has a straight line on the leading edge. The front of the fuselage has a cone for the propeller. There is a row of exhaust pipes between the propeller and the cockpit. The bottom line of the fuselage curves toward the wing.

Trace coins or buttons to make the wheels round.

Our drawing has the cockpit open there is a door that folds down with a step on it for the pilot to get in.

Draw a shadow underneath.

Put your airplane in an environment like a landing field with the tents for the pilots in the back ground and the trees of the farms beyond that.

What makes this project beautiful is the graceful curving lines of the aircraft. Take your time and it will look good.

How to Draw a Young Wizard Worksheet.

This free printable how-to-draw worksheet helps young artists gain confidence in drawing. There are some elements of manga art and classic American comic book style in this project.

FIRST, A WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT: If your drawing does not turn out perfect, do not get discouraged, no one is as hard on themselves as a true artist. Learning to draw takes practice, so draw every day, and soon you will be making beautiful pictures. Come back often and try some of my other projects.

To print, highlight it and send it to your printer or save it to your device to print later. Some people get the best results by dragging the image to the desktop and printing from there. If you have problems, see the how-to-print tab above.

Start by drawing a stick figure with joints at the elbows and knees. Try a few different poses on some scratch paper. Use a large triangle for the chest and a line across the hips to indicate how wide he is. Make the pose interesting by having your wizard do something or hold something.

Once the pose is decided on, fill out the body with the shapes of the muscles. They are long and rounded. The youth is not very broad, he has narrow shoulders, and he is thin.

The hands are like squares, with lines for fingers. The right hand has a palm-up position the thumb is outside. The left hand has a palm forward position and the thumb is up.

Keep the face simple. It is a narrow face and has a small chin. Draw the features with only a few lines, and they are mostly straight since he is not showing much expression.

When the proportions are right, draw the clothes. Keep them flowing and follow the shape of his body. Give the clothes flowing graceful lines. Make some of the lines broad and some narrow for interest. Use shadow to make the clothes rounded.

The orb has some electric magic coming out and going to the staff. Use different lines that are choppy and short. This will give variety and interest to the project.

Worksheet For How To Draw a Tiger.by MrAdron

Thank You!


This tiger is posed as if he was carefully stalking its prey. The head is low, the eyes are focused, and a foot is up in mid-stride. He is frozen, waiting the moment to charge.

BASIC BODY SHAPE:
To compose the basic shape of the tiger, this project uses a combination of techniques. Start by using circle shapes to start the body.

The face is made of two circles, one large and a small one near the bottom of the first large circle for the muzzle. The face is low on the shoulders since his head is down. Big circles make the shoulders and the hips. Two lines that slightly curve down make the back and tummy.

POSE THE LEGS:
The legs can be posed in many different ways. We changed the technique for the legs and use the "Articulated stick figure" method. Draw straight lines for the bones of the leg and circles to mark the joints. Once you are happy with the length and the position of the legs then add flesh to the legs. Save the stripes for last.

THE FACE:
The details of the face are simple; just use a few lines that curve.

1. The longest line starts at the corner of the top of the eye; it curves down and becomes the ridge of the nose, it goes to the bottom of the large circle and curves back up; it looks like a large backward letter "S."    
2. The mouth is like two parentheses, ( ), .out of order  ) ( but touching each other in the middle. The top of the parenthesis makes the bottom of the nose, and then they curve a little farther than normal to make the sides of the upper mouth. 
3. The bottom of the mouth is like the letter "u." 
4. The tiger's ears are rounded; they are on the top sides of the head. 
5. The eyes are almond-shaped that point up and outward just slightly. Inside the almond shape is a circle, but the circle is bigger than the almond shape, so part of the circle on top is missing. The pupil is not round like a human but diamond-shaped.
6. This tiger has three stripes on each side of the face that curve, three above each eye going across, one straight up and down in the center of the forehead and two stripes between the ears.

THE STRIPES:
Don't overdo the stripes. Every tiger has different stripes. The stripes curve like they are going around his body, not just straight up and down. The stripes are thickest at the back and narrow down to the tummy (but some tigers have wide stripes on the side and a few thin ones on top). The stripes on the legs angle down from the back to the front so the back of the strip is higher on the leg. The stomach is white.


There are many different types of tigers around the world. If your tiger doesn't turn out the way you want don't get upset it might have been one of the others you drew by accident.

The front legs are just two parallel lines that lean forward slightly. The back legs are like a triangle pointing down with a square for the ankle at the bottom.

The face is a triangle. The eye and ear are in a straight line with the nose. The eye is where the line and the circle touch. The eye is black and shiny. The nose is a little square. There is a short stripe down the face.

The stripe on the back goes in a "V."

The tail is furry and almost as long as the body.

Start with a triangle that is wide at the bottom and not very tall. Draw lightly since you will want to erase the extra lines later on. Inside the triangle draw the horizontal lines for the lower flank, the base top, and the turret top. The line of the lower flank makes a wide space for the treads and trucks of the tank. The line of the base top curves down to connect to the lower flank. A second line departs from the base top curving up to shape the turret top. The back of the turret top is vertical. There is a dome at the top of the turret and a machine gun.

The cannon is two lines that go a little beyond the front of the tank, but not too much. The cannon has a sleeve and a buffer where it connects to the turret.  They are drawn as a cylindrical sleeve coming out of a rounded-edged box, at the front of the turret.

The treads ran on three pair of rollers. These were suspended on trucks that were like three narrow triangles pointing down and three wide triangles pointing out. The wheels are mounted behind them so part of the wheels are hidden.  There is an arm with a roller at the top of the trucks for the treads to roll across. There is a spiky large wheel at the front and a smooth roller at the back.

The treads had spikes pointing inward.

Take your time have fun and you will be glad with the results.

How to Draw an Eagle Flying, Worksheet by MrAdron

If you like this worksheet you might also want to try How to Draw An Eagle's Face.

Begin with a light pencil that you can erase easily. The first two lines will be erased later but will be a guide to start the drawing with.

First, draw a crooked "t," but the cross-bar is twice as long as the body. Imagine the letter "t" is doing a one-handed push up that is what it will look like at first. The long line is for the wings and the short line is for the body.

On the line for the body draw an oval for the body of the eagle, this oval starts at the point where the two lines cross and will go halfway to the bottom of the line.

Draw a large triangle for the tail feathers below the oval on the line. Use the line to keep the triangle and the oval centered on the eagle and on the line.

Draw a circle for the head and two lines to connect the head to the line for the wing.

Draw a sweeping curved line from the bottom of the body, where the tail starts to the tip of the outside edge of the wing to finish the wing shape.

None of these lines need to be perfect, just go over them until you have a nice outline of the eagle.

Add the beak and the eyes.

The feathers take time and if you take your time it will look great. There are about 24 feathers on each wing. Before you draw them make marks where you want them to be. Keep them spaced evenly except for the last (on the tip- farthest away from the body), five or six, these last feathers are more spread out.

There are rows of feathers. If you overdo it the results might not look good.

Add details to the head. The eye has a black center. The beak is a triangle but bent downward at the end.

The feet start at the bottom edge of the wing the tail. The claws look like ugly bony hands.

Color the body dark brown, leave the head white, color the beak and claws yellow.

How to Draw a Serpentine Dragon Worksheet by MrAdron

Here is a link that may work better that the image above. 

To see more how to draw worksheets like this search the sidebar.

This dragon is composed of a few lines that flow gracefully so it will encourage the artist to develop beautiful lines.

Start with the serpent body. The snake is just two lines a top and a bottom that touch at both ends. To draw the twisting body takes a little practice, so start with a light pencil like a hb or 2b. You may even want to do a few rough sketches on scratch paper first. Draw the body like a letter "S" . You can add a loop by drawing the top and bottom lines in a circle, draw it right over themselves lightly, and when you are happy about the look then erase out the lines that are in the way.

The head is rounded and the tail can be a point, spade, spike or whatever you want.

Think of the wings as the number 7 lying down on its left-hand side with a curtain of skin stretched between finger joints. Draw the front one that is closest to you first. It is a good idea to practice on a scratch paper until you get it right. The wing is flapping in the wind so it has waves and the lines that make it curve gracefully. This is one of the things that make our dragon so beautiful.

After you have the front wing the way you like it then draw the back wing, it does not need to be all showing since it is behind the front one.

Add details like spikes claws, scales, fangs, and eyes.

You can color the dragon any way you want.

It is easy to draw the basic design but there is no end of variations a creative mind can give it.

I only show one here but I have a list of ideas at the bottom.

PRINTABLE LESSON NOTES.

Begin by drawing lightly so you can erase extra marks later. Start with the basic oval shape but a little pointed at both ends. I suggest a guideline across the center to keep things even, and another guideline at the end to keep things level to each other.

I draw a rectangle where I want the large rear fins to go. This helps to make sure one doesn't stick out farther or one starts too far forward since I use the rectangle to be a guideline.

There are many ways to make the fins they can be straight lines or curves or circles. I chose the rocket fin design for my example. The fin in the center is drawn right on the center guideline.

I use another guideline to keep the two rear motors even with each other. The motors are circles with a square then some shading and a few marks for vents. The propellers are very thin figure "8s."

Underneath the blimp is a gondola, it is like a passenger area. It is an oval. I started by drawing a square and then making the lines curve up and down to give the round shape.

Once you have the basic ideas in place erase your extra lines.

You can add things like:
     * Antenna.
     * Windows
     * A ladder or anchor or swing hanging below.
     * A bird's nest on the top,
     * A telescope sticking out,
     * More doors and windows.
     * A flag can hang behind it.
     * Birds can be landing on it.
     * Parachutes underneath,
     * Weather vanes on top.
     * Solar cells.
You might want to go over your drawing with a fine-tipped marker then color it in with color pencils.

Draw a world below it.
Let your imagination go wild.

I hope you make a masterpiece.
