Draw a Boy

A smiling boy with tousled hair, a T-shirt and shorts, socks and trainers.

Follow 24 named parts to build the picture, with smooth guides for each line. Use a finger, mouse or stylus, lift between separate lines, and take a closer look with the zoom controls when you reach the smaller details.

Try a green T-shirt and blue shorts, then choose any hair and skin colours you like.

Can I follow along on paper?

Yes. Use the tutorial or download the printable drawing and tracing pack.

Can I choose my own colors?

Yes. The coloring stage starts with unfilled shapes so you can choose your own palette.
