14 steps · Medium · about 11 min

Draw a living room in 14 easy steps, about 11 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 sofa back.

Step 1: The sofa back
In the middle draw a tall soft box with round top corners, about as wide as your hand.
Step 2: Two arms
On each side draw a tall arm: start half way down the back, hump out, go down to the bottom.
Tip The arms stick out past the back like big round bumpers.
Step 3: Two big eyes
On the back, above its middle, draw 2 big egg eyes. Colour a big black dot in each.
Step 4: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a wide U smile from eye to eye. Draw a small flat cheek beside each end.
Step 5: Two cushions
Between the arms draw 2 soft rectangles side by side for the seat cushions, with a tiny gap between them.
Step 6: The base
Under the cushions draw a long flat band from arm to arm.
Step 7: Feet and floor
Under the base draw 2 short square feet, one near each end. Draw a floor line under them.
Step 8: A floor lamp
On the right draw a flat foot. From it draw a thin post, stopping above the arm. Add a lampshade.
Step 9: A picture
Above the left arm draw a square picture frame with a square inside. Draw a hill and sun inside.
Step 10: A rug
Between the sofa's feet draw a long flat oval rug across the floor line.
Step 11: Pink cheeks, yellow lamp
Colour the cheeks pink, and the lampshade and the picture's sun yellow.
Step 12: Light blue and brown
Colour the cushions and sky around the sun light blue, then the lamp post, foot, sofa feet and frame brown.
Step 13: Blue sofa
Go over your lines, then colour the sofa blue around the cushions and cheeks, leaving the eyes white.
Step 14: Red rug, green hill
Colour the rug red and the little hill green. Your living room is ready for a sit!
