18 Easy People Drawing Ideas

Hi everyone!

I am back with another drawing ideas blog post – This time, let’s draw some people!

Drawing people can be pretty daunting to a beginner artist, so I tried to make them as simple as possible so that anyone could give them a try.

I hope this inspires you to give drawing people a try!

Here are some drawing tips to help you out:

Start off with a pencil sketch of your drawing. Once you are satisfied with your sketch, go over the lines with an ink pen.

Once the ink dries, erase the pencil sketch underneath to reveal your final drawing!

Feel free to draw however you like though! There are no rules when it comes to art, right? 🙂

Now, let’s get to our drawings!

I hope you enjoy!


1. Triangle People

Let’s start off easy by drawing some people out of triangles.

Feel free to add in the other little details such as eyes and a mouth. I wanted to keep it simple and just kept it as an outline.
