Prepare to Draw Normal SpongeBob
Normal SpongeBob has become one of the most recognizable SpongeBob memes. This meme gave the familiar character a much more smooth and rounded appearance.
We’ll start with the smooth shape of the body, then gradually add the face, clothes, arms, legs, and the remaining details until the character is complete.
If you’ve already drawn SpongeBob before, you’ll notice that the biggest differences in this tutorial are the face and body contours.

Normal SpongeBob Backgrounds Ideas
Now that you’ve finished drawing Normal SpongeBob, you can turn this simple character into a complete Bikini Bottom scene.
Draw Patrick standing next to SpongeBob, sketch Squidward with his usual serious expression. Or draw Sandy in her diving suit. Even adding just one more character will make the drawing look much more interesting.
You can also create a background for your picture. Draw SpongeBob’s pineapple house, add the sandy ground, underwater flowers, or a few bubbles floating around the characters.
If you’d like to build another scene, draw the Krusty Krab, Conch Street, or another familiar location from the cartoon.
Using several characters and a background together is a great way to practice creating complete illustrations instead of drawing a single character on a blank page.
