Guidelines
Illustrated Witch
Begin with a circle as the foundation for the head. Accentuate the cheekbones and chin, making them prominently defined. Sketch a cross to assist with facial features placement later on.
Sketch the witch's body below the head. Ensure it appears plump and rounded. Use a bell shape to depict the skirt.
Illustrate elongated bell shapes for the sleeves and circles for the hands. Include a broom in her right hand.
For the witch's head, draw a lengthy, slightly curved pointy hat.
Add facial features. Emphasize thick eyebrows, large round eyes, small circles for warts, a sizable and pointed nose, and a slightly agape mouth revealing a partial set of teeth to evoke a wicked appearance.
Define the facial contours and depict disheveled hair with several wavy lines.
Enhance the witch's robe with intricate details. Give it a worn and ragged appearance.
Remove any unnecessary lines from your drawing.
Apply colors to your artwork.
Modern Witch
Sketch the outline of a broom, complete with a lengthy handle.
Sketch the silhouette of a witch perched on her broomstick. For the head, opt for a circular shape with a pointed and angled bottom to represent the cheeks and chin. Connect the head to the torso with two short parallel lines for the neck. Illustrate the remainder of the body with a flowing robe, detailing the hands, one of which grips the broom.
Draw a large, conical hat.
Add facial features such as eyes, nose, ears, and mouth. Frame the face with a hairstyle of your choosing; let your creativity flow.
Enhance the robe with additional elements like a cape and intricate patterns if desired.
Refine your drawing by focusing on details like fingers, adding delicate lines to the broom and hat. Don't forget to illustrate the witch's footwear.
Remove any excess lines from your drawing.
Apply colors to enhance your artwork.
