How to Draw a Semicircle
Draw a semicircle 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 semicircle.
Step 1: Big semicircle
Draw a big semicircle: a flat bottom line with a round rainbow arch from one end over to the other.
Tip The shape is the whole drawing, so make it big and neat.
Step 2: 2 big eyes
In the middle draw 2 big eggy eyes, close together. Colour a black dot in each, leaving a shine.
Step 3: Big smile
Leave a gap under the eyes, then draw a wide U smile from under one eye across to the other.
Step 4: Rosy cheeks
Under the outside of each eye, clear of the smile, draw a small sideways oval for a rosy cheek.
Step 5: A shine
In the top-left of the semicircle draw 1 short curved shine line, like light bouncing off it.
Step 6: Sparkles
Draw 2 sparkle stars on each side of the semicircle, one high and one low.
Step 7: The floor
Along the semicircle's flat bottom, draw a long floor line from past the left end to past the right.
Step 8: Pink cheeks
Colour the 2 cheeks rosy pink.
Step 9: Yellow sparkles
Colour the 4 sparkles yellow.
Step 10: Purple semicircle
Go over your lines and colour the semicircle purple, around the pink cheeks. Leave the eyes white. You're done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a semicircle, drawn by you.
