Step by Step Spider Web Drawing Tutorial

Version 1 – How to draw a spider web

Step 1

Start by drawing a cross, draw a horizontal line and a vertical line.

Step 2

Draw two more lines, this time diagonal.

Step 3

Start weaving your web. Start with the inner “circle” making a small arc from one line to the other. We draw from diagonal to vertical.

Step 4

Continue with the next arch, starting where the previous arch ended.

Step 5

Now do more, around until you come across the first one.

Step 6

Create more “circles”. Weave the mesh until you are happy with how it looks.

And that’s it, you’ve learned how to draw a regular spider web!

Version 2 – How to draw a corner spider web

Step 1

Start by drawing a horizontal line and a vertical line – at right angles.

Step 2

Draw a few diagonal lines between the horizontal and vertical lines. We think 3 is a good number but you can make more or less.

Step 3

Start weaving your web. Start by drawing the first arc, starting from the vertical line and going to the diagonal line.

Step 4

Make more arches until you reach the horizontal line.

Step 5

Continue with the next set of arches.

Step 6

And all the times after that, until the cobwebs in the corner of your house look as expected.

Done, you have learned how to draw a spider web in the corner.
