This collection has 140 free step-by-step drawing tutorials, organized by subject rather than one long undifferentiated list: 28 land animals, 20 everyday objects and school supplies, 16 sea creatures, 16 food items, 14 vehicles, 11 birds, 9 flowers and plants, 9 bugs and insects, 10 holiday subjects, 4 characters (Pikachu, Iron Man, Godzilla, Peppa Pig), and 1 buying guide to drawing paper.

Every guide follows the same method: start from one basic shape, then add a single line per numbered step, so a child can follow along without an adult redrawing the page for them. Step counts range from 6 to 14 depending on the subject — a chili pepper or a shooting star finishes in 6-9 steps, while a dragon or a hummingbird runs closer to 12-13. Two of the holiday guides are printable step sheets rather than on-page tutorials: how to draw 9 Christmas things (tree, bauble, candy cane, stocking, gingerbread man, bell, snowman, present and wreath) and how to draw a snowflake (easy, branched and crystal). Each of those pages prints at 300 dpi on US Letter, shows the earlier steps in grey so only the new line is black, and ends in a large practice box. This is different from VerbNow’s coloring pages, which are ready-made outlines to color in; these tutorials teach how to build the outline from scratch.

Every guide is free, prints on US Letter, and needs no signup. Once a drawing is finished, it can go straight from pencil outline to color — for a huge range of ready-made outlines instead, browse the coloring pages collection, or for a hands-on paper project rather than a drawing, see the crafts collection.

This page has 9 step-by-step Christmas drawing sheets plus a practice page, all free to print. Each sheet splits one picture into 6 numbered boxes, and each box adds a single new black line on top of the grey lines from the steps before. The nine pictures are a tree, a bauble, a candy cane, …
