How To Draw the Poop Emoji- EASY- Step By Step
Step 1
Gather your materials and put them on a clear workspace.
Step 2
Sharpen your pencil and colored pencils so they draw clean lines.
Step 3
Draw a rounded swirl shape like a soft-serve ice cream to make the poop body.
Step 4
Add two small oval eyes near the top center of the swirl.
Step 5
Draw tiny circles inside each eye and leave them white as shiny highlights.
Step 6
Draw a small curved smiling mouth below the eyes.
Step 7
Sketch two or three gentle curved lines across the swirl to show layers.
Step 8
Darken the main outline and the face lines with your pencil to make them clear.
Step 9
Erase any extra sketch marks to tidy up the drawing.
Step 10
Shade the lower folds and the area under the mouth with a darker brown colored pencil for shadow.
Step 11
Color the rest of the poop with a mid-tone brown using even strokes.
Step 12
Gently lift a tiny spot on the top with your eraser to make a bright highlight.

Help!?
What can we use if we don’t have brown colored pencils or a sharpener?
Use crayons or washable markers for the mid-tone and darker brown areas and a handheld pencil sharpener or carefully whittle the pencil with a craft knife so you can still draw clean lines as instructed.
My swirl looks lopsided and the layers don’t show—how can I fix that?
Lightly restep the rounded soft-serve swirl with a sharpened pencil in several passes, add two or three gentle curved lines across the swirl for layers, then darken the final outline and shade the lower folds with a darker brown to build depth.
How can I adapt this drawing for different ages?
For younger kids, pre-draw a big rounded swirl and let them stick to adding the two oval eyes, mouth, and broad coloring with crayons, while older kids can refine the curved layer lines, practice subtle darker-brown shading under the mouth, and lift a tiny highlight with an eraser for realism.
What are some ways to enhance or personalize the finished poop emoji?
Add accessories like a tiny hat or bow, change the expression, boost the top highlight with a white gel pen or the eraser trick, or scan the colored drawing to make stickers to share on DIY.org.

✏️ Cartoon characters often start from simple shapes like circles, ovals, and lines, making them great for beginner drawing practice.
🖍️ Colored pencils let you layer light strokes to blend colors and create smooth shading without paint or water.
