To draw a simple cartoon ghost, follow these step-by-step instructions:
- Start by drawing two ovals for the eyes near the top of your page. Leave a small gap between them.
- Below the eyes, draw the mouth by sketching the top edge, then the bottom edge, creating an open mouth shape. Add a curve inside the mouth to represent the tongue.
- Fill in the eyes and the top of the mouth with black to give the ghost expression.
- Draw the top of the ghost's head by creating a rounded shape that goes across and down on both sides.
- Sketch the arms by drawing curved lines coming down and out from the sides of the head.
- Draw the sides of the ghost’s body by extending lines downward from the arms and rounding out the shape.
- Add folds and curves at the bottom of the ghost’s body to give it a flowing, sheet-like appearance.
- Include some folds on the front of the body and tuck the arms slightly behind the body to add depth.
- Optionally, add color or shading to bring your ghost to life.
