Its a fairly common letter that we use a lot, and its also really easy to write.
This guide wont be about writing a regular U, however.
We will be creating a reallyfun version of the letterby showing you how to draw a bubble letter U.
Then, to close off, we will go over some suggestions on how to make it even cooler!
Were ready to begin, so lets start step 1 of the guide and see how it is done.
As we mentioned, U is not a particularly complicated letter to write.
Simply use a steady, curved stroke of your pen or pencil to draw this line.
Because this letter is so simple, planning it out wont be totally necessary.
However, if you want to ensure success then you’re able to draw it out in pencil.
This line might be a bit trickier, so take it slowly.
Extend the line down from the left-hand point of the line from the first step.
It will extend down, curving slightly until it veers to the right.
The slope of this line should be very slight, as we want it to be mostly vertical.
Its a simple step as long as you take it slowly!
If you go too quickly, your hand may wobble and the line may look a bit too wavy.
The trick to drawing is always to take your time with it.
We will keep this momentum going as we add more to this line in the third part.
STEP 3:
Your bubble letter U will really start to take shape in this step.
We will be able to see what the final letter will look like once you add this next section.
To do this, you will be continuing the line where you left off previously.
It will head up for a little bit, gradually curling over.
Then, it will twist around and down, sloping towards the bottom of the letter.
Finally, curl the line up again until it meets the other line where it ended.
Then, you will have the complete outline of your letter!
When youre happy with how the outline looks, we will head to step 5.
We will do this by adding some simple lines and shapes.
The first of these will be some small oval shapes, one at each tip of the letter.
These may not seem like much, but they will help to make the U look reflective.
Before you move on to the final step, be sure to add any other details you want!
For example, it could be fun to draw stripes or maybe some shapes on the letter.
In the meantime, we will color in the bubble letter in the sixth step.
We show you one possibility in our reference image.
The colors are brightest the further you get from the light reflection points we added in the fifth step.
You dont have to stick to just one color, either.
Which colors will you choose to finish off your letter U?
My Final Tips To Make Your Bubble Letter U Drawing Even More Special!
One great way of taking it even further would be by choosing a theme for your image.
A good place to start would be words that start with U.
For a few words to get you started, we can think of umbrella, ukulele or unicorn.
If you chose umbrella, then you could draw a cartoon umbrella shielding the letter from the rain.
Another way you might approach a theme is by using it to spell a name.
There arent many names that start with U, but there are a few!
