How to Draw a Leaf Dinosaur
Draw a leaf dinosaur 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: big head.
Step 1: Big head
Near the top of your paper, draw a big head, wider than tall, with fat round cheeks.
Tip The head is almost half of the whole dinosaur.
Step 2: Two big eyes
On the middle of the head, draw 2 big round eyes with big black dots and white shines.
Step 3: Nostrils and smile
Dot 2 nostrils under the eyes. Start under the left eye and draw a wide smile to the right eye.
Step 4: Belly and tummy plate
Start under the left cheek. Draw a big pear body, back up to the right cheek. Add a tummy plate.
Tip The body is narrower than the head.
Step 5: Leaf crest
On top of the head, draw 3 pointy leaves, starting and stopping on the head. Add a line up each.
Step 6: Arms and mittens
Start under each cheek. Draw a fat sausage arm down to a mitten on the tummy, back to the head.
Step 7: Legs and feet
Low on each side of the belly, draw a big flat foot poking out, with a little leg bump above it.
Step 8: Pointed tail and ground
Start on the right side above the foot. Draw a short pointed tail out and back. Add a ground line.
Step 9: Cream tummy
Colour the tummy plate cream, but not the mittens resting on it.
Step 10: Teal body, green leaves
Go over your lines. Colour the leaves green and the dinosaur teal, around the tummy. Leave the eyes white.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a leaf dinosaur, drawn by you.
