How to Doodle Joy

Step 1

If someone asked you to doodle JOY, what kind of facial expression would you draw? Let’s take a look at one example. To begin your JOY doodle, draw an oval in the middle of your page. This will become the head of our joyous cartoon character.

Step 2

When we are joyful, our eyes tend to smile. To represent this in a doodle, use a couple of v-shapes to draw the eyes as shown within the example.

Step 3

A joyful mouth is often open and wide. Use a couple of arc shapes to draw the mouth of your joyful cartoon character.

Step 4

Let’s now give our cartoon character some teeth and a tongue. Use rectangle shapes to draw the teeth. Then use two combined arc shapes to draw the tongue inside the mouth.

Step 5

Finish of your JOY doodle by giving it some color. Notice how three lines have been added on each side of the head. These lines highlight that the head is loving and radiating positive energy. Are there any other ways you can think of to doodle joy?
