Eight simple steps are required to learn how to draw cupid! I will show you how to illustrate this adorable character properly using simple shapes and lines that anyone can easily duplicate. The result is a fun illustration made from basic elements and filled with just enough details to make the character recognizable without spending hours drawing complex shapes.
Before proceeding with the step-by-step version of this tutorial, you can try the video lesson found below. It's slightly different from the version found on this page, but it's a good start to learn how to draw this character quickly and easily.
First, sketch the head of cupid using a long oval shape. Notice that this is not a perfect shape. The top is narrower and the bottom of the head is a little bit flat.
Next, draw a thin rectangle to illustrate the body. Once you are finished, you can draw another smaller rectangle below the first one to represent the legs of the cartoon character.
Great! Now you can move on with the creation of the arms using long rectangles. The hands are made from circles. Notice that the right hand is slightly raised. The feet are made from small circular shapes.
The eyes are done using huge circles. These circular shapes can be placed next to each other like shown below. You can also draw small ears using circles.
The hair is done using several small circular shapes joined together like shown below. The wings are small and made from a few curved lines. Cool! :)
It's now time to add smaller details (especially inside the head). Draw large pupils using circles. These pupils must be close to each other. The nose and the mouth are made from small curved lines. A small dot is used to create the belly button.
Small oval shapes are inserted inside the pupils. The arrow is made with a long rectangle and a heart. The bow is mostly made from straight and curved lines.
Below is the final cartoon character without any colors. It's a complex character to draw, but if you follow each step carefully, nothing is impossible!
Nice job! This illustration shows all the steps needed to learn how to draw cupid properly. I hope you had fun working on this cartoon character and don't hesitate to try more tutorials from the same series!
