Easy Frankenstein Drawing
Frankenstein and Drawing
What makes a how to draw Frankenstein lesson easy enough for even, say kinders or first graders to take on? Well, it starts with a large and simple head, that sits right in the top middle of the paper. It must have the flat top, a choppy looking hairline, and attached screws, of course. Then it helps to make the body with one LARGE upside down U shape. It will look like the hunch back that Frankenstein is famous for, and add an easy way to attach two hands and a torn looking hemline.
The finished proportions all make up for a Frankenstein drawing that fills the paper and can be finished with all kinds of creative details. Maybe a trick or treat bucket attached to a hand? Or lots of torn patches on his clothes? Or a full moon or ghost or two in the background? All kinds of possibilities! Just be sure to tell students to color carefully. This sample was made with just some ordinary crayons, but with lots of pressure to get some really dark colors. It’s the reason why that bright green face really stands out from that rich, purple shirt he is wearing.
Why Draw with Guides?
You may have noticed that all of the tutorials on this website have a dashed vertical line and horizontal line running through the center of each step. If students make their own centered lines on their own paper, before drawing, they will have an easy reference to follow. All they need to do is fold their sheet of paper in half both ways, make a crease, and unfold. The best part is, by the time the drawing is done and colored in, the creases will have disappeared!
