Dragonfly Drawings the Easy Way!

Dragonfly drawings have been requested on the site for a while, so it's time to add this popular cartoon critter Follow along and learn how to make your own cartoon dragonfly

STEP-1: The Head and Eyes

Make a large circle and then two smaller circles on top of it The

smaller circles should be about half the size of the larger one

To get the right placement of these smaller circles please refer to the example image

One small circle will be a little off centre at the top half of the head circle, while the other one will be a little lower down on the right side

of the head circle

STEP-2: Drawing the Body Shape

Here you will be making the rest of the body structure, but first delete the extra lines from the eyes, so the face and the eyes shape become clear

Once that is done, draw an oval overlapping the head in the area

towards the lower left side of the head Then towards the left of the oval you just made, make another elongated oval for the lower body of the dragonfly This oval is almost like a chili pepper shape

STEP-3: Finishing the Face

To make the eyes, first make a curve on the inside of each of the two circles that you have drawn for the eyes In the left eye the curve will

be in the top half of the circle, while in the right eye the curve will be in the lower part of the circle

Take a look at the example to make sure that the eyes of your dragonfly drawings are matching up with what you see here Finish up the eyes with a tiny oval in both the eyes for the eyeball

To make the mouth of the dragonfly, draw a line starting from the

lower part of the face that curves up slightly when it reaches the other end of the face to give a little smile

That's all there is to it for making the face of your cartoon dragonfly The last thing to do for this step is to erase the extra line from the body where the two ovals overlap

STEP-4: The Antennae and the Legs

Start making the antennae of the dragonfly by drawing a line coming outwards from the point of the right eye and the head As the lines move away from the face they should curve slightly downward and end with a tiny oval

Next you must come down to the body which is divided into 2 parts The part that is closest to the head will be divided with just one line, while the other body part four curved lines running through it, dividing

it equally

Move your attention back up to the part of the body nearest to the head and make two tiny triangles on the right side for the legs of the

dragonfly

STEP-5: The Wings

How are you cartoon dragonfly drawings coming along? Are you ready

to finish your creation?

To make the wings, start at the place along the top of the body where it meets the head and draw two lines moving outward away from the dragonfly These two lines curve outward and then meet up in a point

to make the first wing

From the same point take out two more lines that again curve out and end in a point, only this wing will be much smaller

The other wing is also done and your adorable cartoon dragonfly is complete
