Intro: When learning how to draw The Simpsons character Marge Simpson, start off with a pencil sketch. In the beginning stages, don't press down too hard. Use light, smooth strokes for sketching.

 

Step 1: To draw Marge Simpson, start with a small circle near the bottom right of the page to leave room for Marge's hair, which you will draw later. You don't have to draw the circle perfectly; it’s just the basic shape for Marge Simpson’s head.

 

Step 2: Next, draw two more circles the same size as the first stacked on top of each other and slightly angled to the left. These are guides for when you're learning how to draw this The Simpsons character's hair later on. These guides will help you draw Marge Simpson's hair at the correct height it doesn't turn out looking odd.

 

Step 3: Complete Marge Simpson's hair guide by drawing an angled vertical line on each side that connects the three circles.

 

Step 4: On the lowest circle, draw two intersecting lines, one vertical and one horizontal. When drawing the lines, bend them so that they contour to the shape of the sphere. These are construction lines that will help when you're learning how to draw the facial features of this The Simpson's character later on.

 

Step 5: To the left of where the two construction lines intersect, draw an oval on its side as a guide for Marge Simpson's nose.

Step 6: On top of the horizontal construction line and to the left of the vertical line, draw a circle. Draw another circle to the right, and make sure its bottom hiding behind her nose. These will be Marge Simpson's eyes.

 

Step 7: For Marge Simpson's mouth, draw a curved line that starts at the horizontal construction line near her nose, and extend it to the right. Curve it back to the inside of the main circle.

 

Step 8: Below the horizontal construction line on the right side, draw a curved line that resembles the letter C for Marge Simpson's ear. Below the main circle, draw two small vertical lines that will be Marge Simpson's neck.

 

Step 9: That's it for the initial sketch of Marge Simpson from The Simpsons cartoon! You have learned how to draw the basic shape of Marge Simpson from The Simpsons cartoon. Now go in and tighten your drawing. From this point on, press harder with your pencil in order to get darker lines and a more defined sketch.

 

Step 10: Darken in Marge Simpson's eyes and draw four small curved lines on top of each to represent her eyelashes. Inside each eye draw a circle and shade it in for her pupils.

Step 11: Now learn how to draw this The Simpsons character's nose and ear. Use the initial shape as a guide to draw in Marge Simpson's nose and only darken the right side of it. Darken the shape of her ear and draw a few lines within it for structure.

 

Step 12: Draw Marge Simpson's mouth and draw a small smile line at the end. For her lower lip, draw a small curved line under her mouth near the bottom of the main circle.

 

Step 13: Darken the lines that make Marge's neck. Below the neck, draw a series of circles overlapping each other to make her necklace.

 

Step 14: Now learn how to draw this The Simpsons character's hair. Go around the initial hair guideline using a series of small bumps or curves to draw Marge Simpson's hair. Draw the inner portion of Marge Simpson's hair by going around her eyes using small bumps.
