How to Draw the Eiffel Tower
Draw the Eiffel Tower 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 two legs.
Step 1: The two legs
Start near the top, a finger apart. Curve 2 lines down and out to the bottom corners, like an A.
Tip The legs bow inward like a bell: steep on top, flat at the bottom.
Step 2: Top and antenna
Join the leg tops with a small box. Draw an antenna up from its top middle, ending in a ball.
Step 3: Two platforms
Draw 2 platform bars across from leg to leg: a short one near the top, a long one two-thirds down.
Tip Each platform pokes out a little past the legs.
Step 4: The ground
Draw a ground line under the feet from edge to edge, with a tuft of grass at each end.
Step 5: Inner legs
Inside each leg, curve a second line from under the low platform down to the ground, for a thick leg.
Step 6: The big arch
Start on the left inner leg, draw a rainbow arch under the low platform, and stop on the right one.
Step 7: Top lattice
Between the top and the high platform draw three big X's stacked, corner to corner from leg to leg.
Step 8: Middle lattice
Between the two platforms, draw 2 lines across from leg to leg, then one big X from corner to corner.
Step 9: Clouds
Draw a small puffy cloud on each side of the tower: 4 bumps over the top and 2 bumps underneath.
Step 10: White clouds, brown iron
Colour the clouds white, then the top box, antenna ball and both platforms brown, like old iron.
Step 11: Brown legs
Colour the leg bands brown too, between the lines. Go over your lines and you're done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: the Eiffel Tower, drawn by you.
