Differences Between Stick Man and Stick Woman
These images may seem a little stereotyped. Not all women have blond hair, blue eyes and wear red lipstick.
The pictures are intended as simple cartoons and not social commentary on gender issues.
The traditional stick man is a standard black line image. The picture illustrates some simple differences between drawing a male stick figure and a female one.
In the example below he is wearing fairly boring clothes - jeans and a drab looking tee. The female blows all that away with color, style and sex appeal!
The stickman is the one on the left by the way.

Dress Styles for Stick Ladies
Simple and colourful go a long way towards creating an attractive stick lady.
Adding a dress of any shape or colour is an easy way to create an instant female version of your stick man.
No doubt a proper fashion designer could create some wonderful looking clothes but if you want a stick lady in a hurry then a simple shape and a paint filling work pretty well.
The example shows a set of geometric shape dresses.

Giving Your Stick Woman Some Shape
A professional artist will need to make the figures as lifelike as possible. That will mean many hours studying the female form on the internet.
Many hours.
You would not think that two wobbly things would be difficult to draw but they are. That is not just down to shaky hands either.
It is hard to make the curves work in a sensible way when using simple lines. A couple of best efforts are shown in these pictures.
The stick woman in profile is nice, the curves work better sideways on.

These ladies show that boobs and stick figures do not really go together.
The only way to make stick woman more shapely is to move away from the purist stick style design and put some clothes on her!
Here are two simple views - front and side on - that demonstrate how much easier it is to draw curves with some simple clothes.
Note how a few extra lines are required - a couple on the front of the dress and a simple extension of the top dress line for the profile.
That is enough to give her some shape.

Pop the Question
It is tricky finding the right moment or woman to propose to. Scary too. That may be why so many people end up living together without ever getting married.
In the image Mr. Stickman finally picked up the courage to ask her to be his Mrs.
He has gone down on one knee, holds out the engagement ring and his other hand has fingers crossed for luck.
She is surprised, pleased and needs to think.

Hen Night
Before the wedding it is traditional for the woman to have a mad party with her friends.
The idea being to let her hair down and have a real night of fun before devoting herself to marriage, monogamy and responsibility.
They could go out for a nice meal, take in a show or they could have a bachelorette party.
Dress up, get roaring drunk and hope the evening doesn't end in a police cell.

A Happy Couple Picture
Having added pictures below with a woman and baby maybe we need a wedding too.
Here are the bride and groom on their wedding day. Both of them dressed up for the occasion and despite all the pre-wedding nerves and stress they look happy.

A Pregnant Stick Woman
The pregnant stick woman was a challenge set by a friend.
"Draw one" they demanded.
It needed a little bit of thinking but once again a profile view and a curve came to the rescue.
She has her hand in her back to support the weight because even those stick babies are quite heavy.
The picture shows that practically anything can be represented with a simple curve of a line and some experimentation.

Stick Woman and Baby
The natural progression from being pregnant is to give birth. That is one picture that will not be attempted on this page!
However a mother and child seems the most natural thing in the world to have a go at drawing.
In the picture the mother is holding the child close while it sleeps. She gently holds its head with her hand. They both look happy, safe and content.
Not bad for a stick picture!

Mothers Day
In years to come our stick woman may be celebrating Mother's Day with a bunch of kids bringing her flowers.
Well, it's an excuse for another drawing.

Votes For Women!
As we are on the subject of stick women, why shouldn't women have the vote?
It's about time!
Here is a "Free" statement in the Suffragette colors with "Votes for Women" slogan in the flag. With enough action and the support of their menfolk maybe this hurdle to equality can be overcome.
ed: you're about 100 years too late

Divorce!
Of course not everything ends up a bed of roses. Many marriages end in divorce. This event is not always unwelcome either, coming as a blessed relief for one or both of the parties concerned.
The two best days in your life? The day you get married and the day the divorce comes through.

Thanks for Checking Out the Ladies
I hope you liked these pictures and they gave you some ideas for creating your own. One great thing about drawing stick women is the chance to add a little colour to the usual black and white stick man drawings.
They also add an edge to pictures because when stick man and woman get together things rarely stay quiet.
Have fun and thanks for visiting.
