How to Draw A Boy

Learn a few basic tips on how to draw a boy and create a simple cartoon character that is lovely and fun to sketch! Do you think that drawing a cartoon boy is a simple task? Do you think that you can end up with a fun design in just a couple of minutes? Well .... you are right! Using this fun tutorial, I will show you how to achieve all these goals easily and quickly ... :)

Step 1

Great! Let's start with the head. This one must be made using a long oval shape. Make sure that the top is narrower. The body is created with a simple square. The body must be quite smaller compared to the head. 

Step 2

Cool! The pants of the cartoon boy are illustrated using a small rectangle. The feet are made from small circular lines and the bottom of these shapes must be flat. 

Step 3

The eyes are made from large circles. Huge eyes are the key in making sure this character looks amazing and 100% cute. The arms are made from long rectangles and the hands are drawn from circles. 

Step 4

More circles are needed here! First, create the pupils using small circular shapes. Pupils are located closer to the nose than the eyes are. Ears are also made from small circles. 

Step 5

You can complete this lesson by adding small oval shapes inside the pupils. The nose and the mouth are made from long curved lines. 

Step 6

This is the final cartoon boy made from basic shapes and simple elements. This black and white version can now be filled with all the colors you have in mind! :)

Don't hesitate to work from the template found on this page to illustrate your own cartoon boy. It's a fun exercise that can be more rewarding than simply duplicating the character available here! :)
