How to Draw a Tarsier
Draw a tarsier in 11 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: round head.
Step 1: Round head
Near the top of your paper draw a big round head, a little wider than it is tall.
Step 2: Round ears
High on each side of the head draw a big round ear, with a smaller circle inside.
Step 3: Nose, smile, whiskers
Below the middle draw a small nose. From its tip go down to a smile. Add 2 whiskers each side.
Step 4: Enormous eyes
Across the middle of the head draw 2 enormous round eyes, each with a huge black dot and 2 shines.
Step 5: Pear body
Start under each cheek. Draw a lazy C down, stopping at the bottom middle. Add an upside-down U tummy.
Step 6: Front legs and paws
On each side of the tummy draw a leg getting thinner, down to a round paw on the ground.
Step 7: Back feet
From each paw draw a long rounded foot out along the ground. Stop back at the paw.
Step 8: Long thin tail
Start above the right foot. Draw a thin tail along the ground, curling up to a soft tuft. Come back.
Step 9: The ground
Draw one flat ground line under the paws, the feet and the tail.
Step 10: Cream tummy, pink ears
Colour the tummy cream. Colour the insides of the ears and the nose pink.
Step 11: Tan fur
Colour the head, ears, body, legs, feet and tail tan, around the pink and cream. Leave the eyes white.
