Are you looking to add a little glimmer and shimmer of something bright to your sketchbook?
These thirty-oneeasy star drawing ideasare perfect for a little extra star power.
From simple standalone stars in the spotlight to different big groupings of them.
Some fun tools to use while creating these bright, familiar orbs are listed below!
However you go about trying these ideas out, itll be a shining time!
Dont forget to start with a pencil and return with any more permanent media.
Shining Star
Where else would I start other than a shooting star?
Feel free to use any colors here, too.
For examples sake, I stuck with black, but any color works great.
Headphones
Stars make a wonderful accent to pretty much any scene, ever.
Dandelion Stars
Combining two uncommonly matched subjects in a way that makes sense is always fun.
The stars as dandelions work because of the angular petals and the classic yellow of both.
A classic spiral is a great place to start trying out this key in of drawing.
A medal is an easy enough image to draw.
Curate the stars space to whatever youd like!
Brilliant Star
A shiny, bright star is a given for the list today.
Any given star is at least shining in the slightest.
Stick with this easy geometric representation or dive in with detail to make this star really stand out.
Gold Coin
A gold coin with a star is a great option to make a statement on the page.
Make the scene as detailed as mine, or have the coin stand alone.
Rescale and check that to add color to your shooting star or stars to really impress others.
Thankfully, its a lot of fun to draw on the page and looks great in various sizes.
Bunny
Truthfully, anyanimalwill benefit from the addition of stars in the background.
I stuck with a rabbit because they are easy to draw, and detailing is easy.
Starfish
I couldnt leave the literal most natural star there is out therestarfish!
Hearts and Stars
A winning and classic combination of two shapes!
The mood of this idea changes entirely based on the colors you choose.
Jarring a field of stars makes a classic scene a little more exciting.
Cabybara
Similarly, you could just draw one of your favorite animals with a star somewhere within the composition.
Play with the size of the animal as well as the star for varied results.
Platform Shoes
For those looking for that extra fun or quirky idea, youve arrived!
Whats more fun than platform boots and a star who is wearing them?
Keep it minimal like mine, but I think this idea is begging for color.
The more unique the medium, the better!
Bird
This idea more or less came from a crow!
You may or may not know that crows love something shiny, so this pairing is picture-perfect.
These two are in the same spirit as the cat batting at her toy.
Draw inspiration from your beloved pet or favorite animal for thiscat drawing idea.
Pick any accessory youd like to add to your personal star to give them a little extra spirit.
A Face in the Stars
A star with a face and no accessories is just as striking!
Starry Night
You could also draw inspiration from your favorite artist or time of day!
A starry night, regardless of where you pull inspiration from, is striking with that glint.
Play around with the number of stars and simplicity or complexity within the amount.
A Heart in the Sky
A heart bursting is quite an exciting subject!
This idea is fun and a little unexpected, but it still hits all the bright spots.
I think the addition of a few smaller hearts bursting around the main one would be a great variation.
Bouquet
Like the unexpected frame, an unexpected object housing your subject makes for a cool composition.
A vase is one of the easiest and fastest options you could choose.
The best part about this idea is that all of this begs for a personal design!
The vase, pop in offlowers, how many youd like, and thats not even mentioning color.
This colorful shooting star is one of my favorites just because of its simplicity and easy injection of color.
Sunburst
Like the starburst, a sunburst is another great option for this post.
Since the sun is a star, it has to be a part of the list all about stars.
Folded Star
This star is for you if youre looking for more complex ideas within this post.
This folded star has extra lines, which can make almost anything more intricate and interesting.
Even as a solo subject, your eye travels more throughout the image than some simpler stars.
Sharing Hearts
In the spirit of personifying celestial stars, these two sharing a heart scream the very idea!
The object between them completely directs the mood of the page, so choose carefully!
Think about what youd like to portray firsthumor, romance, horror, etc.
and go from there.
Lightbulb
And, finally, another unexpected frame hosting our bright, shining stars is this simple light bulb.
