Before you begin to draw Winnie the Pooh, observe this finished picture well. Take a closer look at Pooh's body, how it is structured.

Sketch two uneven circular shapes as you see in this picture.
The upper, circle-like is Pooh's head and the lower one, the egg-shaped, is his belly.

Sketch a center-line across his face. This will be the guideline for drawing the facial features. Outline the hands, legs, and ears.

Make sure you push the pencil very lightly because you are going to erase most of these lines later.

Sketch both Pooh's feet and hands. Draw another center face line, this time horizontally. This guideline will help you to pitch the position of Pooh's eyes and nose. Outline his smile.
It is really very easy to draw Winnie the Pooh as you see. Every step in the sequence is very simple.

Mark out Pooh's eyes and nose. Horizontally sketched face cross line is very helpful now.
Outline the contours on the upper half of his head.
You can begin gradually erasing some initial guidelines.

Refine his smile. Sketch out the contours of Pooh's red shirt and the collar around his neck.

Keep erasing the unnecessary guidelines because they are obstructive as you proceed on outlining more details.

A pen shaped eraser will come in very handy if you have one. For your future drawings, I recommend you to buy yourself one. It is really very useful.

Add the eyebrows.

The rough sketch of Winnie the Pooh is now complete. You've now learned how to draw Winnie the Pooh. The next step will be the Piglet, Pooh's best friend.

Outline Piglet's head and belly. Draw two uneven noodles, similar as you see here.

Since you are drawing the Pooh and the Piglet together, make sure that the body size proportions to each other are approximately the same as you see here.

Winnie the Pooh is much bigger than the Piglet, so try to keep their body size in proper balance.

Take a light brown color pencil and draw a distinct clean contour line all around Pooh's body.

Do the same on Piglet using a pink color pencil.

Color out Pooh's body using a yellow color pencil. Just flat plain yellow color, same color tone, no shading yet. Similarly, color out Pooh's shirt using a red color pencil.
Do the same all over Piglet's body with a pink color pencil.

Keep on adding more brownish colors to Pooh's body. Also, notice that the shades are colored using red color.

Make a coloring test on a separate paper if you are unsure.

Color and shade Piglet's body the same way.

As a final touch, take a well-sharpened black color pencil and draw a clean contour line over Pooh's and Piglet's bodies.
