How to Draw Sunglasses

Learn how to draw sunglasses in this easy video tutorial! These shades will put you in an instant Summer vibe mood. Follow along to see how to do it.

The sunglasses go well with last week’s 3-scoop ice cream cone. In that one, we added a distressed and grunge texture to the scoops and the waffle cone.

Take a look at what we’ll be drawing in the video below.

WATCH the sunglasses intro video.

And we’ll only use basic shapes, which are circles and rectangles.

In less than 30 minutes, you’ll have a pair of cools shades. The finished design can be used for SVG projects or printed for sublimation design projects.

For really cute summer projects, you can use this tutorial to draw an easy summer sun, add these sunglasses and print the design onto your favorite tumbler mug.

We’ll use Inkscape for this drawing. The shortcuts that I use in the video can all be found in my Inkscape Ready Set Go! Ebook.
