It is fun and
fulfilling to learn how to draw a girl, especially when the process is broken
down into easily achievable steps. This article will guide you on how to go
about drawing a cartoon-like girl in twelve different steps which are
accompanied by detailed explanations and illustrations. For both beginners and
those who have some experience in drawing, this guide will enable them achieve
great results.

Step 1 – Draw the Top
of the Head
Begin by drawing a
straight vertical line down your paper. This guides us to maintain symmetry on
both sides of the head. At the top end of this line, sketch a circle
representing the upper part of the head ensuring that there is enough space
above it for hair that we shall add later. With this circle as our base we can
keep the head’s shape proportional.
Step 2 – Draw the Bottom of the Face
The next step
involves drawing lines extending downwards from the lower side of the circle so
as to give us lower parts of face. In order to make her look like a stylized
cartoon character, let her chin narrow and smaller than her forehead broadening
towards each side then ending in sharp pointiness. This gives our character an
attractive appearance with lots of charm. Having finished sketching chin, rub
out most bottom part of introductory circle merging face smoothly.
Step three - the final touch to the neck and shoulders
Two thin lines will be necessary to connect the bottom of the head with a neck. The neck should be drawn smaller than the head for this character whose appearance is that of a cartoon. From there, draw them outwards towards both directions starting from the neck so they can develop into shoulders’ shape. The proportions of these shoulders must be compared with their narrow width.
Step four – ears, what are they for?
The tops of the ears
must lie on an imaginary line that runs horizontally across the middle part of
the head while their bottoms descend halfway between this line and chin. Using
a horizontal guideline through your mind will assist you in proper placement.
Since hair will eventually hide most details about them later let your ears
have reduced information or small size.....next more click video
