How to Draw a Caravan
Draw a caravan in 14 easy steps, about 11 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: rounded box.
Step 1: Rounded box
Start low on the left. Draw up the front, round over a long roof and down the back. Stop low.
Tip Make the top corners big and round, like a loaf of bread.
Step 2: Floor and wheel bump
Start where you stopped. Draw a flat floor with one rainbow bump in the middle, back to the front.
Step 3: One fat tyre
Tuck a big round tyre up into the bump. Draw a hubcap circle in its middle.
Tip A caravan has just one wheel on each side.
Step 4: Tow bar
Start low on the front wall. Draw a long bar out to a round tip and back to the wall.
Tip This bar hooks onto the back of a car.
Step 5: Little jockey wheel
Start under the bar near its tip. Draw a short post down, and a small wheel on its end.
Tip The little wheel holds the bar up when no car is pulling.
Step 6: Big window
On the front half of the wall, under the roof, draw one big window with rounded corners.
Step 7: Two curtains
Start on the window's top edge. Curve down to its side edge for a curtain. Do the other side.
Step 8: Tall door
Behind the wheel, draw a tall door standing on the floor. Add a pill handle halfway down.
Step 9: Belt line
Start on the front wall. Rule a level line to the door. Carry on and stop at the back wall.
Tip Keep the line just under the window.
Step 10: The ground
Start in front of the little wheel. Draw a ground line under both wheels, and stop behind the caravan.
Step 11: Yellow and sky blue
Colour both curtains and the door handle yellow. Colour the window glass between the curtains sky blue.
Step 12: Cream top
Colour the top half cream, above the belt line, around the window and the door.
Step 13: Teal bottom, red door
Colour the bottom half teal, below the belt line. Colour the door red around its handle.
Step 14: Grey bits, black tyre
Go over your lines. Colour the tow bar and hubcap grey. Colour the tyre and little wheel black.
