Materials You Will Need:
- Paper
- Pencil
- Eraser
- Coloring materials (optional)
Step 1: Drawing the Head
Start by drawing an oval shape in the middle of your paper. This will be the witch’s head.
Step 2: Adding Facial Features
On the lower half of the oval, draw two curved lines for the eyes. Add two small circles inside the eyes for the pupils. Draw a curved line for the nose and a wide smile for the mouth. Don’t forget to include a small dimple on each side of the mouth for a friendly look.
Step 3: Creating the Witch’s Hat
Above the head, draw a large triangle shape for the witch’s hat. Connect the triangle to the head by drawing two diagonal lines.
Step 4: Drawing the Hair
Sketch some wild, wavy hair under the hat. Make it as messy as you like to give your witch character.
Step 5: Adding Arms and Hands
Extend two curved lines down from the head to create the witch’s arms. At the ends of each arm, draw a set of five curved lines for the fingers.
Step 6: Outlining the Body
Draw a slightly curved line extending from each arm to form the witch’s body. Connected to the body, add the skirt by sketching a jagged line.
Step 7: Giving the Witch Character
Time to add some details! Draw a small bow on the witch’s hat and buttons on the body. You can also add a broom in one hand and a cauldron in the other to make the witch look even more magical!
Step 8: Coloring Your Witch
If you want to give your drawing some color, now is the time! Grab your coloring materials and let your imagination run wild. Feel free to use traditional witch colors like black and purple, or get creative and choose your own unique color palette.
Step 9: Final Touches
Once you have finished coloring, it’s time to make your friendly witch stand out. Take an eraser and carefully remove any stray pencil marks. This will give your drawing a clean and polished look.
Now that you know how to draw a friendly witch, Halloween will be even more enjoyable for your kids. Encourage them to explore their creativity and use their imagination while drawing. Remember, there are no limits to what their witches can look like, so have fun and let their creativity soar!
