How to Doodle an Old Telephone

Step 1

Begin your old telephone doodle by doodling an imperfect rectangle shape in the middle of your page. Now, in the bottom quarter of this shape doodle a slightly curved straight line as shown in the example below.

Step 2

Next, use curved lines and arc shapes to doodle the handset of your old phone. This is a little tricky. Be sure to keep the spacing between each line and the body of the phone even.

Step 3

Now, doodle a couple of circles that will represent the telephone dial. First, doodle a small circle in the middle, then a larger circle around the small circle. Finally, doodle an arc shape along the bottom half of your large circle as shown in the example below.

Step 4

Time now to give your old phone doodle a little detail. First, add some oval shapes to your telephone dial. Next, use a spiral type shape to represent the cord. Finally, use a rectangle and angles to add some further details to your phone as shown in the example below.

Step 5

The final step is to give your telephone doodle some color. Use complementary colors or different shades of the same color. Color will give your telephone doodle some personality and character. 🙂
