Today, I’ll show you how to draw Ennui from Inside Out 2. Follow along if you’re keen to add this uniquely apathetic character to your collection of sketches.
Ennui’s Visual Appearance
- Ennui’s standout features include her periwinkle skin and long indigo hair, which falls straight with bangs above her eyes.
- Her body is small compared to her head, emphasizing her childlike proportions despite her older emotional traits.
- Dress her in a pale indigo sweater and matching sweatpants. Don’t forget the cozy gray socks dotted with grayish dots.
- Her cobalt blue eyes and thick hair should be drawn with a sense of indifference, and her posture should reflect her lackadaisical attitude.
- Link Ennui with other emotions from Inside Out 2 like Anxiety, Envy, Nostalgia or Embarrassment to provide context and explore her role within the dynamics of Riley’s emotional spectrum.
