HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Yes, Halloween is finally here and so is our final drawing activity!

If you missed them, you can check out How To Draw… A Bat, A Ghost, and A Mummy Cat in my previous posts.

This week however, we’ll be drawing a Witch! I absolutely love witches, from Luna Lovegood to The Wicked Witch of the West, they’re so full of character and very interesting to draw. This one is probably the most detailed of all our step-by-step drawings, but it’s broken down into simple steps just like all the others, so no need to panic! Just give it a go, she’s so fun to draw.

This week’s recommended drawing tune would have to be the opening theme of hit 70’s TV show, Bewitched.

Happy doodling!

Yay! If you made it this far, you’ve most likely drawn yourself a witch! Why not set her against a nice starry sky with a big spooky moon? Or have some fun with giving her different accessories and animal friends?

Well we’ve come to the end of our Halloween activities. I’ve had so much fun preparing these for you! As ever, if you’d like to share your drawings, just post it up on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram using the hashtag #ImproperHalloween. Or alternatively, pop it in an email to contact [at] improperbooks [dot] com, I’d love to see your pictures!

Have a great Halloween weekend.
