How to draw a witch clip art in four easy steps

First, we need to create a basic template to help us create accurate proportions and a relevant posture. It's time to try things and be creative. For the head, I have used a large circle. Rectangles and triangles are needed for the hat. The dress and the arms are created with smaller rectangles. Don't forget to sketch a broom, a belt near the waist and another one inside the hat. Cool! This template is perfect for now!

Now let's use this template to draw the character itself. For this example, I have used small dots for the eyes and a long curved line for the mouth. The tooth is made from a small square. Hair is made from short broken lines and a few details are added inside the broom. Great job once again!

You can now erase all gray lines created in the first step. Indeed, our template is no longer needed. This witch clip art is visually quite appealing, but it could be better with the addition of some colors ...

Let's use a few bright colors to bring this gentle monster to life. First, you can use a bright purple color for the hat and the suit. Both belts are colored in yellow and gray. The skin can be green while the eyes and the hair are red. For the tooth, a bright gray color is more than enough. The broom is filled with a variety of brown colors.

Which witch do you wish to sketch?

Cool tongue twister don't you think? Now that this character is completed, it's time to draw more witches! You can start by working on a simple version created from squares and rectangles. If you prefer to try a more dynamic posture, then this flying witch is for you!
