Channel Your Inner Artist: A Hilariously Easy Guide to Drawing George Washington Carver (Even if You Can't Draw a Stick Figure)
Let's be honest, folks. Most of us wouldn't know a masterpiece from a macaroni collage.

Intrigued? Well, grab your crayons (or your fancy art supplies, no judgement here) because we're about to embark on a journey of artistic exploration that's guaranteed to be more fun than getting tangled in yarn (because, let's face it, that happens way too often).

| How To Draw George Washington Carver |
Step 1: The Head (Prepare for Some Basic Shapes, Folks)
Think of George Washington Carver's head as a giant oval. Don't worry about perfect symmetry, nobody's head is perfectly symmetrical unless they're a robot overlord, and frankly, those guys creep us out. Pro Tip: If your oval looks a little wonky, embrace the wonkiness! Maybe George Washington Carver bumped his head on a particularly stubborn peanut plant – who are we to judge the artistic choices of agricultural heroes?
Sub-Step 1a: Don't Forget the Face Funnel!
Imagine a giant funnel sticking out the bottom of your oval. This funnel will become George Washington Carver's glorious beard and mustache (essential for any distinguished scientist/peanut enthusiast). Note: You can get creative here. Maybe George Washington Carver was feeling fancy that day and opted for a handlebar mustache – the possibilities are endless (as long as they involve facial hair).
Step 2: Let There Be Light (And Eyes)!
Now, because George Washington Carver wasn't a superhero, he probably had two eyes. Draw two circles inside the oval, making sure they're not right up next to his magnificent beard funnel (safety first, people!). Feeling fancy? Add little dots in the center for pupils – just a touch goes a long way.
QuickTip: Stop scrolling if you find value.
Step 3: The Smile That Launched a Thousand Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches
George Washington Carver was a pretty happy guy, so let's give him a smile! Draw a simple curve below his nose, and there you have it – a smile that could brighten even the dullest day (or the blandest peanut butter sandwich).
Step 4: The Finishing Touches (Because Even George Washington Carver Deserves a Hat)
George Washington Carver was often seen sporting a neat little hat. Draw a rounded rectangle on top of his head – there's your hat! Feeling extra artistic? Add a line or two for a hatband (because details matter, people).
And Voila! You have yourself a masterpiece! Now, it may not be going to the Louvre any time soon, but hey, you created art! High five yourself and maybe even treat yourself to a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (because George Washington Carver would have been proud).
Tip: Don’t just scroll to the end — the middle counts too.
Still Confused? Fear Not, FAQ to the Rescue!
How to make my George Washington Carver look less like a potato and more like a human?
Elongate your oval a bit – potatoes are round, humans are (generally) not.

Help! My George Washington Carver has a unibrow!
Tip: Each paragraph has one main idea — find it.
Don't worry, even artistic geniuses make mistakes. Grab your eraser and carefully separate those brows – two brows are better than one, especially when it comes to expressing surprise at the wonders of peanuts.
I accidentally drew three eyes. Is this a sign of artistic genius?
Probably not, but hey, three-eyed George Washington Carver could be the new artistic trend! Embrace the unexpected!
Tip: Share one insight from this post with a friend.
How do I avoid my drawing from looking like a small child drew it?
Practice makes perfect! The more you draw, the more comfortable you'll become. Besides, a little childish charm never hurt anyone (except maybe the Mona Lisa).
How do I convince my friends and family that this is a masterpiece?
Confidence is key! Tell them it's a new artistic style called "Peanut Modernism" and that George Washington Carver would have totally approved (because, let's be honest, nobody can argue with a peanut pioneer).
