Peanuts Fun – How To Draw Charlie Brown

It’s been a great year for animation at the cinema and it’s not over yet.  Snoopy And Charlie Brown: The Peanuts Movie arrives just before Christmas.

Can’t wait until then?  Try getting creative!  Because in the run-up to the film’s release, London Mums have some great video guides on how to create your own version of some of the Peanuts characters – and more.

This first one shows you how to draw Charlie Brown himself and your guide is no less than Steve Martino, the director of the movie.  All you need is paper and a black felt tip pen – and off you go!  And, although the video is meant for younger artists, there’s nothing to stop older ones trying their hand at drawing him as well!


 

We’d love to see your drawings of Charlie Brown, so do share them with us on the London Mums Facebook page.

Charlie Brown, his faithful dog Snoopy, Lucy, Linus and all the Peanuts gang make their big screen debut on Monday, 21 December – which makes it the perfect outing over the Christmas holiday.

But, before then, there’ll be more Peanuts fun with another video guide next week.
