Steps To Draw Winnie The Pooh
Drawing Winnie the Pooh can be a fun and rewarding experience, especially if you follow this step-by-step guide. Take a look at the guide for a detailed overview—this will be the drawing we’ll be working on today. Let’s get started!
Step 1: Sketch The Head
Start by drawing the main curve shape from the top. Next, add gentle indentations for the cheeks where they connect to the main curve. Follow the picture, if you get any confusion regarding the instruction.
Step 2: Draw the Neckline
Draw two small curves at the bottom of the head to outline the neck. The shape should resemble a V, similar to the image shown above.
Step 3: Outline The Shirt
From the right side of the neckline, draw Pooh’s shirt with a shape that looks like the top half of a rectangle. Make a slight curve on the neck side to give it a natural look.
Step 4: Sketch The Sleeves
Extend the shirt by adding sleeves on the left side. Then, include some detailing around the neckline and sides to complete the look.
Step 5: Position The Left Hand
Place Pooh’s left hand in a relaxed, outward-facing position. It should be gently curved as if resting naturally. Make sure it complements the overall pose and aligns with the shirt’s design.
Step 6: Draw The Lower Part of the Body
Extend the shape from the bottom of the shirt, creating an oval to outline the character’s lower body. This oval should smoothly connect with the shirt and represent his body.
Step 7: Sketch The Left Leg
Draw the left leg, extending downward from the bottom of the oval. Add two parallel lines to define the leg’s shape, and finish with the round shape at the bottom to complete the leg.
Step 8: Complete Drawing Right Leg
Similarly, sketch the right leg to the left. Start from the bottom of the oval, add two parallel lines, and a curved shape at the bottom to match the shape of the other leg.
Step 9: Draw The Right Hand
Position the right hand at the back, slightly behind the body. Outline the hand to ensure it appears naturally resting and complements the overall posture.
Step 10: Add The Shape of The Ear
Draw small, rounded shapes on each side of the head for the ears. Position them a bit away from each other to form a natural look.
Step 11: Draw The Facial Features
Draw two circles for the eyes, positioning them side by side. Then, sketch the curved lines for the eyebrows slightly above the shape of the eyes. Below the eyes, add a triangle shape for the nose, and shade them with a pencil or marker. Lastly, complete the look by drawing a simple, curved smile to give Pooh his classic, cheerful look.
This will finally complete the steps of drawing the character. If you want to give your drawing a bold look, follow the coloring steps below.
Coloring The Winnie The Pooh
After drawing the character, we decided to add minimal color to enhance the drawing and make it more enjoyable. Let’s start the process.
We started the process by adding a red color to the shirt of the Pooh. This will give the character an enhanced look. For the body, legs, and hands, use yellow to color them. This will create a bright appearance for the character. We used the same yellow as the character on TV to keep our drawing looking just like the original.
Color Details:
- Red
- Yellow
This will complete our coloring process. We used pencil colors, but feel free to use any coloring method you like. If you want to give your sketch a bold look, you can outline it with a black marker. This will make the drawing stand out and give it a clear finish.
