How to Draw a Penguin Face
Draw a penguin face 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 egg head.
Step 1: Big egg head
Draw a big egg, a little wider at the bottom, so big it fills most of the page.
Step 2: White face
Start on the left cheek. Draw a big upside-down U inside the head and stop on the right cheek.
Tip The black band is thick on top and thin at the sides.
Step 3: The beak
In the lower half of the white face, draw a small rounded triangle pointing down.
Step 4: Two big eyes
Halfway down the head, draw 2 big egg eyes, a gap apart. Give each a black dot and a shine.
Step 5: Beak line
Draw a short line across the beak, a little below its top, from side to side.
Step 6: Three hairs
On top of the head, draw 3 short hairs sticking up: one straight up, one leaning out each side.
Step 7: Rosy cheeks
Colour a small pink dot on each cheek, beside the beak and under the eye.
Step 8: Falling snow
Draw 4 little snowflakes around the head, 2 on each side. Each is 3 short lines crossing in the middle.
Step 9: Orange beak
Colour the beak bright orange.
Step 10: Black head
Colour the head black around the white face, going carefully round the edge. Leave the face and eyes white.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a penguin face, drawn by you.
