How to Draw a Slow Loris
Draw a slow loris 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 round head.
Step 1: Big round head
Near the top of your paper, draw a big round head with full soft cheeks.
Tip The head is about half of the whole loris.
Step 2: Small round ears
On each top corner of the head, draw a small round ear like a button, with a smaller curve inside.
Step 3: Huge ringed eyes
Halfway down the head, draw 2 huge round eyes with dots and shines. Draw a bigger oval ring round each.
Tip Keep a clear gap between each ring and the eye inside.
Step 4: Nose and smile
Between the eye rings, draw a thin stripe from the forehead down to a small triangle nose. Add a smile.
Step 5: Round body
From the left cheek, draw a round body a bit narrower than the head, back up to the right cheek.
Step 6: The branch
Over the body, draw a long wavy branch with round ends, thicker on the left. Rub out the body inside.
Step 7: Hugging arms
From under each cheek, draw a thick arm down to a round hand over the branch, with 2 finger lines.
Step 8: Feet under the branch
Under the branch, draw a round foot peeking out each side of the tummy, with 2 toe lines.
Step 9: Grey fur
Colour the head around the eye rings, the ears, body, arms and feet grey, and the stripe cream.
Step 10: Brown rings, wood branch
Colour the ring round each eye brown. Leave the eyes white. Colour the branch wood brown. Your loris is done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a slow loris, drawn by you.
