How to Draw a Maze
Draw a maze 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: top and right walls.
Step 1: Top and right walls
Start a little in from the top-left corner. Draw across to the top-right, then down, stopping before the bottom.
Step 2: Left and bottom walls
Start at the top-left corner. Draw down to the bottom-left, then across to the bottom-right. Leave both gaps open.
Step 3: First inside walls
Start on the top wall by the gap. Draw a wall down, then across. Draw another from the left wall.
Step 4: A zigzag wall
From the right wall draw a wall in, down, then in again like 3 stairs, stopping in the middle.
Step 5: Short walls
Draw 4 short walls: one across, one down from the top, 2 up from the bottom. Each stops part way.
Step 6: The path
Start above the top-left gap. Draw a path with round corners between the walls, stopping past the bottom-right gap.
Step 7: Start and finish
At the start of the path draw a little round dot. At the end draw a 5-pointed star.
Step 8: Sparkles
Draw 3 sparkle stars around the maze: 4 dots like a plus sign joined by curves that dip in.
Step 9: Yellow star and sparkles
Go over your lines. Colour the star and the 3 sparkles yellow.
Step 10: Sky path, red start
Colour a sky blue band along the path, then colour the start dot red. Your maze is done!
