Drawing a solar system is not complex. You can create it easily using Monkey Pen’s step-by-step guide. 

Step 1: First draw a sun on the right facing left, with a half circle.

Step 2: Add its outer rays, that look like a series of triangles connected together.

Step 3: Now draw an orbit for Mercury using U shaped curve. Mercury is a small circle with tiny circles inside.

Step 4: Create an orbit for Venus also above Mercury. Venus is a slightly bigger circle than Mercury and has curly lines inside.

Step 5: Above Venus, show the orbit for our planet, Earth. Draw rugged shapes as shown in a globe.

Step 6: Next is Mars, which lies above the Earth with an elliptical orbit. Mars is a slightly bigger circle than Mercury and smaller circle than Venus and has tiny ovals inside.

Step 7: The largest planet Jupiter comes above the Mars and has spiral lines throughout with few dots and an oval inside.

Step 8: Then comes Saturn with rings that revolves in an elliptical orbit around the Sun. Saturn has a round shape little smaller than Jupiter and has horizontal lines passing through it with a double layered oval shaped ring covering it.

Step 9: Draw Uranus that is little smaller than Saturn, having circular rings and elliptical orbit.

Step 10: Here comes the eighth planet Neptune that is almost similar in size as Uranus. The planet has swirls passing through it.

Step 11: Add few tiny circles within and outside the solar system to indicate the other objects in the galaxy.

Step 12: Include some stars around the solar system.

Step 13:  Above the solar system, write the word ‘SOLAR’ in block letters.

Step 14: Then write ‘SYSTEM’ in block letters.

Step 15: Thus Solar System is created.
