Free Drawing Page: How to Draw an Angry Bald Man Step by Step
In this post, I’m sharing a free step-by-step drawing page straight from my book How to Draw: Goofy Faces. The character featured on this page is the face of an angry bald man, drawn with exaggerated features to really sell the emotion. He’s completely bald, has a deeply furrowed brow, and an open mouth pulled into a grimaced expression that clearly shows frustration and anger.
This free page walks young artists through How to Draw an Angry Bald Man using the same simple, approachable step-by-step format found throughout the book. Facial expressions can feel intimidating to draw, especially when emotions are involved, so this page is a great way to practice breaking a complex expression into manageable steps.

About the Book: How to Draw: Goofy Faces
How to Draw: Goofy Faces is all about expressions, personalities, and character design. The book focuses on drawing faces with exaggerated emotions, silly reactions, and strong cartoon style.
Inside the book, kids will find many different goofy faces to draw, each broken down into easy steps. Learning How to Draw an Angry Bald Man is just one example of how the book helps kids understand expression through drawing.
All of the artwork in the book is hand-drawn by me. I don’t use AI-generated images or stock art. Every face was designed intentionally to be clear, readable, and fun to draw for kids.
Why Goofy Faces Are Great Drawing Practice
Drawing faces is one of the most important skills for cartooning, and exaggerated expressions make that process more fun. When kids learn How to Draw an Angry Bald Man, they’re not just copying lines—they’re learning how emotion translates into shape.
Anger is a great expression to practice because it relies on strong visual cues like sharp eyebrow angles, tense mouth shapes, and bold lines. This makes it easier for kids to see how small changes affect the character’s mood.
Practicing faces like this builds confidence and helps kids feel more comfortable designing their own characters later on.
Also Available in Trace Then Color and Draw by Grid
If step-by-step drawing feels a little advanced for some kids, How to Draw: Goofy Faces is also available in Trace Then Color and Draw by Grid formats.
The Trace Then Color version allows kids to trace the faces first before coloring them in. This is great for beginners who are still building hand control and confidence.
The Draw by Grid version breaks faces into a grid system, helping kids focus on placement and proportions one section at a time. This format works especially well for kids who like structure and visual guides.
Each format teaches drawing in a different way, but they all support the same goal: helping kids enjoy drawing without pressure.

Encouraging Creative Expression Through Drawing
Facial expressions are a powerful way for kids to communicate ideas and emotions through art. When kids learn How to Draw an Angry Bald Man, they’re learning more than just how to draw a face—they’re learning how characters express feelings.
That understanding helps kids create their own characters, stories, and comics later on. Drawing becomes a form of storytelling, not just copying shapes.
About the Free Angry Bald Man Drawing Page
The free activity page included with this post focuses entirely on drawing facial expression. Instead of a full body, kids concentrate on the face, which makes it easier to study how emotions work in cartoon form.
On this page, kids will learn How to Draw an Angry Bald Man by building the face step by step:
- Starting with the basic head shape
- Adding the brow line to establish the angry emotion
- Drawing the eyes, angled to enhance the scowl
- Creating the open mouth with a tense, grimaced shape
- Refining the expression with simple details
Free Activity Page (save and print):
By the end of the page, kids can clearly see how each small decision affects the overall emotion. Learning How to Draw an Angry Bald Man helps young artists understand that expressions don’t just happen by accident—they’re built intentionally, one feature at a time.
This page also works well if printed multiple times. Kids often enjoy drawing the same face again, changing the eyebrows or mouth slightly to experiment with different levels of anger.

Common mistakes and quick fixes
- The eyes sit too high on the head.
- On a real head, the eyes are halfway down. Draw a light line across the middle and put the eyes on it.
- The expression is hard to read.
- Eyebrows do most of the work. Tilt them down in the middle for angry, up in the middle for worried.
- The ears are in the wrong place.
- The tops of the ears line up with the eyes, and the bottoms line up with the nose.
- Pressing hard from the very first step.
- Use light, sketchy lines first. You can erase them easily and go over the lines you keep at the end.

Talk about it
For the grown-up: ask one or two of these while your child draws. There are no wrong answers.
- How is this face feeling? What could have happened to make it feel that way?
- Can you make that face too? Which part of your face changes most?
- Which part are you proudest of?
- What colors will you use, and why?
