How to Draw a Sister
Draw a sister 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 head.
Step 1: The head
Near the top of your paper draw a big egg for the head, a little narrower at the chin.
Tip Make the head big: about a third of the whole sister.
Step 2: The face
Below the middle draw 2 big eyes with black dots and a lash each. Add a U nose, smile, brows.
Step 3: Bob hair
Start beside the left eyebrow. Loop down to the chin, up over the head, and stop beside the right eyebrow.
Tip Go down beside the cheek, round a soft tip, then up and over the head.
Step 4: Fringe
Start where the hair began. Draw a soft curve across the forehead and stop where the hair ended.
Step 5: Hairband
Start on the hair's left edge. Draw 2 curves side by side over the top, down to the right edge.
Step 6: Neck and top
Start under the chin and draw 2 neck lines down to the shoulders. Add a top with puffy sleeves.
Step 7: A heart
In the middle of the top draw a small heart.
Tip 2 round bumps at the top and a point at the bottom.
Step 8: Skirt
From the top's bottom corners draw a skirt flaring out to a curved hem. Stop at the other corner.
Step 9: Arms and mittens
Start at each sleeve. Draw the arm down, round a mitten with a thumb, and back up to the sleeve.
Tip Keep a little gap between the hand and the skirt.
Step 10: Legs
Start at the hem and draw 2 lines down for each leg, getting narrower. Stop at the ankle.
Step 11: Shoes and ground
Under each leg draw a round shoe with the toe pointing out. Add a long ground line under both.
Step 12: Peach skin, pink cheeks
Colour pink cheeks, then the face around them and the neck, arms and legs peach. Leave the eyes white.
Step 13: Yellow top, red heart
Colour the top yellow around the heart. Colour the heart, the hairband and the shoes red.
Step 14: Blue skirt, brown hair
Colour the skirt blue and the hair brown. Go over your lines and your sister is done!
