How to Draw a Couch – Let’s get started!
Step 1
On the left side portion of your paper, draw a sideways rectangular shape, as shown in the illustration.
Re-draw all four corners of the shape and make them all curved instead of pointed edges. This little trick makes the shape look like a fluffy cushion.
Step 2 – Draw the Cushion Seats
Draw another cushion seat right beside the one we have previously drawn. The two cushion seats must be aligned and drawn evenly.
Step 3 – Next, Draw the Left Sofa Back
Right above the left cushion seat, draw an irregular square shape with curved edges. The square shape must have a curved top and straight sides. It also must have a greater width than length. This creates a realistic-looking appearance for the couch.
Sofa backs support our backs when we’re sitting down on a couch, enabling us to sit comfortably and maintain upright body posture at the same time.
Step 4 – Then, Draw the Right Sofa Back
Now, repeat the previous step above the right cushion seat. The two sofa backs must look identical and should be aligned.
Feel free to be as creative as you want. You can draw various patterns and designs on the surface of the couch to make it look artistic!
Step 5 – Draw the Left Square Arm
Beside the left cushion seat and sofa back, draw the left square arm. This is where we often rest our arms whenever we sit down on the couch. Without an arm rest, our arm will feel sore and numb.
Step 6 – Draw the Right Square Arm
Repeat the previous step on the other side of the sofa. Keep in mind to draw the arm rests of the couch as evenly as possible. They should look identical and should be drawn within the same level.
Step 7 – Structure the Sofa with a Deck
Now, it’s time to complete the structure of the couch by adding a deck underneath to support the cushion seats.
Draw a straight horizontal line below the cushion seats. Both ends of the line must end on the edges of the arm rest. The bottom of the arm rest must be aligned with the deck.
Step 8 – Add the Left Block Foot
Right underneath the deck, draw the foot of the couch on the left side. Simply draw two short diagonal lines with a horizontal line at the bottom connecting both ends of the line, as shown in the illustration.
The block foot helps support and stabilize the couch.
Step 9 – Then, Add the Right Block Foot
Repeat the previous step on the other side of the couch to complete the couch’s set of legs and make it fully stable. The feet of the couch must look exactly alike and parallel.
And there you have it; you have successfully drawn a couch. Now, all it’s missing is a splash of vivid and vibrant colors to finally complete your artwork!
Finally, here is the most exciting part—filling in the colors for your awesome drawing! This is the part where you can show off your artistic skills and your ability to mix and match various colors.
Couches come in a wide range of colors and designs depending on the material it is made of. Couches can be made with leather, polyester, acrylic, linen, and other durable fabrics. Don’t hesitate to draw patterns on the couch and express your creativity!
Feel free to color your couch drawing however you like and use any colors you prefer! And while you’re at it, why not try experimenting with different coloring materials as well?
