I love drawing cute chibi animals.

These types of drawings are super cute to add to any notebook or planner and they also make great drawing projects for kids.

How to Draw a cute Pikachu face – Step by Step for Beginners

I always start with simple and easy shapes.

We’ll start by drawing Pikachu’s head – so I’m going to draw a small curve like this – this will be the top of Pikachu’s head.

Next, we’ll draw Pikachu’s cheeks.

We’ll draw a curve beneath the previous curve like this – it’s okay if it’s not symmetrical – it looks cuter!

Take your time with this!

Now remember, it’s not necessary for your shapes to look perfect. The more imperfect it is, the more cute it will actually look.

Next, draw the Pikachu’s face.

We’ll draw the eyes.

Next, draw a small cute mouth in the center:

Now, draw Pikachu’s signature ears.

Ain’t that cute?

Color the ears now.

And we’re done!

But we can color him – let’s color him yellow!

Draw kawaii characters and make stickers!

And finally, let’s add 2 red spots to the cheeks – this is how Pikachu will use his electric power!

You can go ahead and add this drawing to your planner or notebook to make it come to life!

This is by far one of the best courses I’ve taken that is so cute and so educational.

The course is in English, and it’s amazing!

What do you need?

A sketchbook, Photoshop, and a graphic tablet so that you can draw the kawaii characters. If you want to make stickers, you’ll need a printer and sticker sheets.

Even if you don’t want to make stickers and just draw kawaii characters, this course is perfect!

It is in Italian but it comes with subtitles and it’s really easy to follow.
