How to Draw a Bubble Letter R
Draw a bubble letter R in 10 easy steps, about 8 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 big r.
Step 1: The big R
In the middle of your paper draw a fat bubble R: a stem, a round bump and a kicking leg.
Tip Bubble letters are fat and rounded like balloons.
Step 2: The hole
Inside the bump draw a small hole, flat on the left and round on the right.
Step 3: Two big eyes
Below the hole draw 2 big round eyes, not touching. Add a black dot and a shine to each.
Step 4: A smile
Under the eyes draw a small U smile. Start under the left eye and stop under the right eye.
Step 5: Sparkles on the left
On the left of the R draw 2 sparkle stars, one higher and one lower.
Step 6: Sparkles on the right
Draw 2 more sparkle stars on the right to match.
Step 7: The floor
Draw a straight floor line under the R, from below the left sparkles to below the right ones.
Step 8: A flat shadow
Draw a flat oval shadow on the floor behind the R. Rub out the floor line inside it.
Step 9: Yellow sparkles, grey shadow
Colour the 4 sparkles yellow and the shadow grey.
Step 10: Orange letter R
Go over your lines. Colour the R orange, leaving the hole and eyes white. Your bubble letter R is done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a bubble letter R, drawn by you.
