a short video to learn how to draw this monkey illustration
Some people prefer to see it all in action. If it's your case, then this short video is definitely for you. The whole process used to create this character is shown. For those who need more information or simply want to take the time to sketch this character accurately, then a written version of this tutorial is available below.
How to draw a monkey in four easy steps
First, you can sketch a few basic shapes to form the character. Our goal is to visualize the posture as well as the space needed to sketch the monkey. A few large oval shapes are needed for the head. Rectangles are added to illustrate the body, the arms and the legs. The ears, the hands and the feet are done using small circles. A long line represents the tail.
Excellent! It's now time to draw a few lines to bring this cartoon character to life. Notice how the nose is created (one small oval shapes and two short lines) and the shape of both eyes. The character is holding a banana, so simply draw enough details to make this one easily recognizable. Patches are added inside the ears and on the chest of the cartoon monkey.
All gray shapes created in the first step are no longer necessary. You can erase them all. Once you are done, you should end up with something like this. It's pretty cool, but adding colors and a few simple textures can make a huge difference!
A dark skin color is applied inside the face, on the hands and the feet as well as inside the ears and on the patch located on the chest. A saturated brown color is needed on the forehead, on the ears, the tail, the body, the arms and the legs. A darker brown color is used for the nose and the eyes. For the banana ... well ... you know what to do! ;)
If you want to take this drawing to another level, you can do so by adding simple textures to it. First, you can draw short lines on all areas that were filled with the light brown color. Then, all parts that were filled with the skin color can be slightly darker on the bottom. You can see this effect added below the nose if you need a reference.
