How to Draw a Fist
Draw a fist in 9 easy steps, about 7 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: side of the hand.
Step 1: Side of the hand
Start near the top middle. Draw a long C out to the left and down; stop low on the left.
Step 2: The top finger
Start at the top of the side line. Draw a fat sideways U out and back; stop a bit lower.
Step 3: Three more fingers
Start where the first finger stopped. Draw 3 more curled fingers underneath, each smaller, and stop with the smallest.
Tip They stack like a pile of fat sausages.
Step 4: The thumb
From the side line, draw a thumb over the top 2 fingers, round the tip and back to the side.
Step 5: Nail and knuckles
Draw a small rounded nail near the thumb tip. Add a short curve near the front of 3 fingers.
Step 6: The wrist
Draw 2 wrist lines down, from the bottom of the side line and under the smallest finger. Stop them level.
Step 7: The cuff
Under the wrist lines, draw a soft rectangle a little wider than the wrist for the cuff.
Step 8: Pink nail, peach fist
Colour the nail pink. Then colour the fingers, thumb, hand and wrist peach, around the nail.
Step 9: Blue cuff
Colour the cuff blue. Go over your lines and your fist is done.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a fist, drawn by you.
