How To Draw A Cabin
Drawing a cabin doesn’t have to be hard. With a few simple tools, some patience, and a little practice, you can create a rustic and beautiful piece of artwork that looks like it came right out of a fairytale book. Here’s a step-by-step guide to drawing a cabin that’s sure to make you feel like a pro.
Firstly, get organized. Gather your supplies, such as a piece of paper, a pencil, and a ruler. To get started on your sketch, lightly draw a small square to represent the main “box” of the cabin. Next, draw two rectangles on top of the box – these will be the roof. Sketch lines from the bottom of each rectangle to the box, to make the sides of the roof.
Secondly, you’ll need to make the details on the front of the cabin, such as the front door and windows. Draw a horizontal and vertical line to divide the box, and then draw in shapes for your door and windows. You can also draw a window on each side of the cabin and a chimney coming out of the roof.
Third, add in some details making sure to keep it simple. To add texture to your cabin, draw lines in different directions along the walls and the roof, dotted lines for a wooden plank look and various shapes and lines for a more shingle-look. Shade the windows, door, and chimney to make them look more realistic. Lastly, draw vertical and horizontal lines to give the cabin an even more rustic look.
Fourth, add in some nature. Draw a few trees around the cabin and add in some grass, rocks, and plants. Feel free to get creative here – add in a bird, birdhouse, flowers, or anything else that comes to your imagination. You can also draw in some smoke coming out of the chimney for a truly cozy look.
Last, draw in some final touches like curtains in the windows and a path leading to the front door. Add some more shading to your cabin and trees to make them pop, and make sure to erase any lines and smudges.
You did it! You’re all done drawing your rustic cabin – it’s sure to be a piece of artwork to be proud of. What’s even better – it’s completely unique, since you added your own personal touches to it. Now that you know the basics of how to draw a cabin, go forth and create some magical, awe-inspiring artwork that your friends and family are sure to love!
