Description: Hey guys! It's Dawn here with another fun and interesting lesson on “how to draw a scary clown”! I was looking around in my email in-box and found a request that wanted to a tutorial to “draw a scary clown”. Thinking to myself, it was not a bad idea! Clowns in general, are pretty scary looking because of all that bright makeup. The ones that seem the creepiest, would have to be the ones with large hairy sideburns, white face paint, red lips, nose, cheeks, and a hat that may resemble a party hat or a top hat. I must have visited a circus two times. One was when I was around ten years old, and the other was when I was twelve. There was this really cool spherical stage thing where some type of motorcycles were driving around in it. They were looping everywhere, without crashing into one another. Anyways folks, I have to go now. I hope you'll enjoy this lesson on “drawing scary clowns”. Have fun and don't give up!
