1. Begin the spider outline by drawing an egg shape - an oval with a gently pointed top. This is the spider's abdomen, the main section of its body.
Drawing Step 2
2. Use a curved line to enclose a smaller round shape below the abdomen. This is the spider's head. Then, draw a straight, vertical line from the abdomen. This is the strand of spider web from which the spider is hanging.

3. Draw a curved line passing back and forth over the straight spider web.
Then add detail to its head. Draw two small ovals, and shade a smaller oval inside each. These are the spider's eyes. Draw a small line above each eye to indicate the eyebrows.
Then, draw two curved triangles at the bottom of the spider's head. These are the fangs.
