How to Draw a Disco Ball
Draw a disco ball 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 ball.
Step 1: The ball
In the middle of your paper, a little low, draw one big round circle, about as wide as your hand.
Step 2: Cap and string
On the ball's top, draw a small cap and a tiny ring. Draw a straight string up from the ring.
Step 3: Two big eyes
On the ball, above the middle, draw 2 big egg eyes one eye apart. Add black dots and round shines.
Step 4: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes, draw a wide U smile from eye to eye. Add a small oval cheek beside each end.
Step 5: Rows of tiles
Draw 4 lines across the ball, 2 above the eyes, 2 below the smile. Add 3 short lines each side.
Tip Stop the short lines a finger away from the eyes, so the face stays clear.
Step 6: Columns of tiles
Draw 2 tall ovals, top to bottom. Add a thin oval and a middle line, skipping the face.
Tip The smaller oval touches the ends of the short lines. The wider one crosses them, making little mirror tiles.
Step 7: Sparkles
Draw 4 sparkle stars round the ball, 2 each side: a tall thin diamond crossed with a wide one.
Step 8: Pink and yellow
Colour the cheeks pink and the 4 sparkles yellow.
Step 9: Sky tiles
Colour 6 tiles sky blue, 2 above the face, 2 below it and 1 on each side.
Step 10: Silver ball
Colour the ball light grey around the blue and pink. Leave the eyes white. Colour the cap and ring slate.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a disco ball, drawn by you.
