How to Draw a Couch
Draw a couch in 11 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 back.
Step 1: The back
In the middle of your paper draw a long rectangle with rounded corners, most of the way across.
Step 2: 3 cushions
Along the bottom of the back draw 3 rounded seat cushions side by side, tucked in front of it.
Step 3: 2 big eyes
In the middle of the back draw 2 big egg eyes, one eye apart. Colour a black dot in each.
Step 4: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a wide U smile from eye to eye. Add a cheek beside each end.
Step 5: The arms
On each end draw a tall rounded arm like a fat pill standing up, overlapping the back and end cushion.
Step 6: Legs and floor
From under each arm draw a short square leg down, across, and up to the arm. Add a floor line.
Step 7: A pillow
Sitting on the left cushion, draw a puffy tilted pillow with soft corners. Stop where it meets the cushion.
Step 8: Sparkles
Draw 3 sparkle stars in the air above the couch.
Step 9: Pink cheeks, yellow sparkles
Go over your lines, then colour the cheeks pink and the sparkles yellow.
Step 10: Wood legs, teal couch
Colour the legs wood brown, and the back and arms teal, around the face and pillow. Keep the eyes white.
Step 11: Navy cushions, red pillow
Colour the 3 seat cushions navy and the pillow red. Your couch is done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a couch, drawn by you.
