Carl Carlson, a familiar face from The Simpsons, is known for his calm demeanor and distinctive style. A close friend of Homer Simpson and co-worker at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, Carl has a unique look that’s easy to recognize and fun to draw. This guide will show you how to draw Carl Carlson and help you capture his appearance step-by-step.

To get Carl Carlson’s look just right, here are a few features to focus on:
- Short, Curly Hair: Carl’s dark, tightly curled hair is one of his defining features.
