Instructions

    • 1

      Draw a circle on the paper. If you have trouble making a perfect circle, trace an object. Depending on the size, everything from a coin to a soda can to a large food can will do the trick.

    • 2

      Sketch a line through the middle of the circle.

    • 3

      Make an upside-down "V" from the middle of the line you just drew. If it helps to visualize it, turn the paper upside down so you can make a normal "V". You have just completed drawing the peace sign.

Tips & Warnings

  • To make a peace sign with your hand, simply hold up your index and middle fingers as if you were signaling the number two.

  • Add colors and other decorative drawings in and around your peace sign. One thing is for sure--with a peace sign, anything goes.

  • You may also add shading to give your peace sign depth. Also, try making the lines of your peace sign thicker so that they stand out from the page.
