How to Draw A Lady

Learning how to draw a lady can be a good exercise if you want to illustrate glamour, wisdom and beauty all at once! When you think of a lady, maybe you have an old grumpy woman in mind, but it is not necessarily the case. A lady can be gracious, filled with joy and positively pretty. It's not just the look that counts, but also the attitude and the wisdom behind the cartoon character.

Step 1

Start this lesson with the creation of the head using a large oval shape. Do you remember how an egg looks like? That's the shape you must draw (only wider).

Step 2

Great! Let's sketch the body of the cartoon lady using a small rectangle. The dress can be made with another rectangle that must be narrower on top.

Step 3

In this third step, you can work on the arms of the character using small rectangles. The hands are made from small circles.

Step 4

Cool! We are almost done! Work on the face of this cute lady by adding the eyes and the pupils using large circles. The nose is made from a small curved line while the mouth is made from a longer one.

Step 5

The hair of the character is made from long curved lines. The hat is also made from circular shapes. A flower can also be added on the hat of the cartoon lady.

Step 6

Here is the character in black and white. :)

Congratulations! Now you know how to draw a lady made from simple basic elements. Don't hesitate to try more characters from the same series! Practicing is the key to succeed!
