Hello everyone I am back with another fun tutorial for you today. This time I will be showing you "how to draw a clown". Clowns are fun characters that are supposed to make you laugh. A clown is nothing more than a regular man or woman dress up in a ridiculous looking suit. They paint their faces white and decorate it with other bright colors such as blue, red, yellow, orange, purple and black. If you think about it clowns use all the colors of the rainbow plus some. Clowns have been entertaining people for decades already. They are most recognized at circuses, in parades, carnivals, fairs, and sometimes they are even hired to entertain kids at birthday parties or other events. These colorful characters are being used more and more everyday especially on the big screen. If you remember Steven King’s story he had an evil clown as the main character in the book “IT”. There was another movie called “Killer Klowns” and that movie was really disturbing. Even if I would to watch that movie today I would still feel freaked out. Clowns are also very popular for Halloween as well. Young kids usually dress up as clowns for Halloween since it is a very simple and cheap costume for parents to pay for or construct. In this tutorial I will show you how easy it is to learn "how to draw clowns step by step". This drawing is only a bunch of circles that are joined together to form a cool looking, colorful clown. I will be back with another tutorial for you all, until then stick around and have some fun.
