How to Draw a House

STEP 1.

 Okay start by drawing a big square box and then add two vertical lines and then one horizontal line inside of the square box. You will then draw a horizontal line on the right side of the house with a slanted vertical line attached to the houses structure.

 

STEP 2.

 You will now start drawing the edges of the roof as seen here and then draw the triangle arch that is off to the left of the house as seen here. You will add more lines to make the edging look like borders.

STEP 3.

 Now, draw a chimney on the roof and then draw a rectangle shape for the house window and than another window above the one you just drew. You will then draw another shape for the house door and then draw the front steps as you see here. Now draw a border under the window.

STEP 4.

 Now you can start drawing in the detailing and definition lines that are associated with house window frames as you see here. Do this to all the windows on the house and then add a small window on the entrance door. Detail the top of the chimney and then sketch out a big puffy looking circle for the top of the oak tree.

STEP 5.

 You will now start drawing out all the shingles on the roof and then detail the tree. Draw out the trunk of the tree and then move to the next step.

STEP 6.

 Draw several horizontal lines for the shingles of the house and then add detailing to the tree's bark or trunk.

STEP 7.

 Add brick lines for the chimney and then draw the bushes on each side of the house. Draw a walk way and then start erasing all the guidelines and shapes that you drew in step one.

STEP 8.

 This is what your house should look like when you are done drawing it out. All you have to do is choose your colors and then color in your house. I hope you guys learned something new with this lesson on how to draw a "house step by step"
