Let’s go over how to draw Chip – a Sanrio character, the cheerful little seal who often appears alongside Hello Kitty in her adventures. In this 12-step tutorial, I’ll guide you through shaping his rounded body, flippers, and friendly face. The Chip drawing is simple, relying on smooth outlines and color contrasts that bring out his gentle expression.
Key Features to Observe While Drawing Chip
- Species: Seal
- Body Shape: Oval and plump with small flippers

- Outfit: Red and orange striped sweater
Chip is a Sanrio seal character who has appeared in Hello Kitty’s Furry Tale Theater and other animated Sanrio series. He’s portrayed as a friendly, playful character who enjoys being part of the group. His simple design makes him a great subject to practice basic shapes, proportion, and clean outlines.
If you like drawing Sanrio animals, you might also enjoy sketching Charmmy Kitty, Pochacco, or Chococat next.
