Basic Shapes
Everything you draw is made of simple shapes!
Beginner1. Circles
Circles are round like balls, faces, and the sun. Practice drawing big and small circles.
2. Squares & Rectangles
Squares have four equal sides. Rectangles are longer. Houses, books, and windows use these shapes.
3. Triangles
Triangles have three sides. Use them for roofs, mountains, and pizza slices!
4. Putting shapes together
A cat can be a circle head + triangle ears + oval body. A house is a square + triangle roof.
