Crazy Busy Art Room Art Prompt 20

Today we are going to be making a lego person!  We will go over the basic steps on how to create the body of your lego person, then it will be up to you to add the details you need to give your lego person personality.  I decided to turn my lego person into an art teacher.  Who will you create?  Will you create more than one?  Maybe a whole lego family???


Photos of the steps are posted below, but please read through all the instructions for additional information on directions or for creativity options.

Supplies Needed:  paper, pencil, eraser, black marker, crayons or markers

Step 1:  Draw a square near the top of your paper to create the head of your lego person.  Round the corners of the squares.


Step 2:  Add a small rectangle on top of the square.  Round the top two corners on this as well.


Step 3:  Add 2 lines to create the neck.  Draw a horizontal line to begin the shirt.


Step 4:  Draw 2 vertical lines that flat out to create the sides of the body.


Step 5:  Connect the vertical lines with a horizontal line to create the shirt for your lego person.


Step 6:  Add a smaller rectangle shape to the bottom of the shirt.


Step 7:  Draw 2 squares connected to the rectangle to begin to form the legs.  Make sure there is a space between the squares.

Step 8:  Connect the two squares with a small curved line.


Step 9:  Create 2 more squares attached to the squares previously drawn.


Step 10:  Add a rectangle shape to each of the squares.  This will be the feet on your lego person.


Step 11:  Add a curved line coming from the side of the body to form the arm.  Connect it to the bottom of the shirt using a curve line.


Step 12:  Draw a hand for your lego person.  The hand should remind you of a crescent moon shape.


Step 13:  Add a few curved lines to make the sleeve and the hand appear 3D.


Step 14:  Now do this on the other side to form the 2nd arm. (Repeat step 11).


Step 15:  Add the hand.  (See step 12 for reference).


Step 16:  Add the curved lines to make it 3D.  (Review step 13 for reference).


Step 17:  Add details to give your lego person personality.  What will your lego person become?  A teacher?  A nurse?  A superhero?  What details will you need to add to make sure your viewers can identify your lego person?  Be creative!


Step 18:  Outline your drawing to make all those beautiful details pop.


Step 19:  Color your drawing with crayons or markers.
