How to Draw a Girl in a Long Dress Step by Step

Six small drawings show a girl being built up one step at a time. The first starts with a simple oval face with eyes, eyebrows and a smile. Next come a neck and a curved hairline, then wavy shoulder-length hair, a fitted top with a scalloped collar and wide bell sleeves. After that she gets a full, flared skirt and little hands held out to the sides. In the later steps a hair bun is added on top, along with a rose in one hand and a small open book in the other, plus scalloped trim on the sleeves and hem. The last picture is shown in color, with brown hair, a green dress and a red rose. Kids can follow the steps in order on scrap paper first, then color the finished figure. Try matching the sample colors or choose a new dress color. This free printable is a good fit for art lessons or quiet afternoons.
