Hi little artist! Today we are going to draw a real king of the jungle: the orangutan. This large ape has long arms and loves climbing. Grab your pencil and eraser, and let's get started together!
1
Draw a small circle for the head and a large oval shape for the body with a guide line in the middle.
2
Draw a thick neck connecting the head and the body, and draw a diagonal line for the rope.
3
Make circles and ovals where the shoulders, hands, feet, and snout should go.
4
Connect the circles with thick lines to create the orangutan's strong arms and legs.
5
Now draw the fingers on the hands and the toes on the feet, and give the head small ears.
6
Give the ape a face by drawing two small eyes and a little nose in the snout.
7
Draw short, hairy strokes all over the body so the ape gets a soft coat of fur.
8
Make the outer lines extra dark with your pencil and erase all the guide lines you no longer need.
