How to Draw a Baker

13 steps · Medium · about 10 min

Draw a baker in 13 easy steps, about 10 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.

Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the head.

Step 1: The head
Near the top of your paper draw an egg for the head, a little narrower at the chin.
Tip Leave the middle of the page for the arms and the bread tray.
Step 2: The face
Draw 2 eyes, a nose and a smile. Add a C ear each side, from the head back to it.
Step 3: Baker's cap
Above the eyes draw a hat band from the head's left across to its right. Add a big puffy top.
Tip The puffy top is wider than the band, like a mushroom.
Step 4: Neck and T-shirt
Draw 2 neck lines. From the left one draw a T-shirt with round short sleeves, ending at the right one.
Step 5: The apron
On the shirt draw a long apron, from the chest down past the shirt to the knees, and back up.
Step 6: Arms bent in front
From each sleeve draw an arm down to a soft elbow, then in to the wrist, thinner as it goes.
Step 7: Fists
On each wrist draw a fist pointing in, round like a fat egg, with a thumb bump on top.
Step 8: Tray and bread
Draw a flat tray tucked behind the fists. On it draw a round loaf with 3 slashes, and a roll.
Step 9: Trousers
Start under the apron on the left. Draw 2 trouser legs, narrower at the ankles, back up to the apron.
Step 10: Shoes and ground
Under each leg draw a shoe with the toe pointing out. Draw a long ground line under the shoes.
Step 11: Sky shirt, tan bread
Colour the shirt sky blue, and the loaf and the roll tan. Leave the apron and cap white.
Step 12: Peach skin, pink cheeks
Colour the face, ears, neck, arms and fists peach, with pink cheeks. Leave the eyes white.
Step 13: Brown trousers, black shoes
Colour the trousers and the tray brown, and the shoes black. Go over your lines. Your baker is done.
