Doodle Tutorials

When you’re unfamiliar with drawing, sketching a simple doodle can seem impossible. But with the helpful tutorials of Doodle Me This, you'll be putting pen to paper in no time. Created by a woman named Jenny, her charming drawings feature an array of subjects that are simplified into three or four easy-to-follow steps. By the end of her doodle tutorials, you'll understand how to sketch cartoonish versions of guitars, foxes, rocketships, cacti, and much more.

Although it might seem like a straightforward task to convert a subject into just a few lines and colors, doing so is harder than you think. Jenny must determine the most important details of the object or animal she’s going to draw. They have to reflect the essence of her subject so that when you glance at it for a second, you'll immediately understand what you're looking at. In making these decisions, her resulting drawing steps appear effortlessly crafted and accessible for even the most casual artist. It's no wonder that so many people flock to her Doodle Me This Instagram account.
