How do you draw a easy dog face step by step?

Hello everyone for this drawing lesson! Today we have to depict the head of a dog. According to some theories, this animal traces its history of origin from the wolf and several types of jackals. The process of their domestication was long and very interesting. According to reports, there are now about four hundred different breeds of dogs. How to reproduce the image of a pet? Our special step-by-step instructions will show you how to draw a dog’s face for kids!

It is curious that the skeletal system of dogs is arranged differently from that of other animals. Dog bones are strong and lightweight. The muscles of the animal activate certain parts of its skeleton, which allows the dog to move freely in space. The pet can walk, trot and gallop, climb mountains, jump, swim, and also overcome tall grass. Drawing a dog’s head will allow you to improve your skills in drawing symmetrical shapes, rounded shapes, and curved lines. Follow the recommendations, and soon you will have a wonderful drawing!

How to Draw a Dog’s Face for Kids

1. Draw the nose.

   Draw an oval, tapered downward. To make this step easier, imagine the shape of a hazelnut.

   

2. Draw the snout.

   Outwardly, the muzzle is a bit like horizontal leaves. Draw two unfinished ovals. To do this, start drawing the line of the dog’s face in the middle of the nose and finish it at the end. Please note: the lines of both parts of the muzzle should converge with each other at the bottom. The shapes are symmetrical.

   

3. Add details.

   Add the dots of the dog’s whiskers, and also draw a curved line on the nose that is a visual reflection of the light.

   

4. Draw the tongue.

   Draw a semi-oval. Draw a small straight line in it in the middle, which will make the dog’s tongue more detailed.

   

5. Draw the mouth.

   Using curved lines, draw the bottom of the dog’s mouth.

   

6. Draw the eyes.

   Draw two cartoon eyes for the dog, which should be oval. Try to paint the eyes the same and symmetrical.

   

7. Add pupils and eyebrows.

   Above the dog’s eyes, draw eyebrows using curved lines. After that, in the eyes draw the pupils of the dog as shown.

   

8. Draw the head.

   Now you need to draw the line for the head – a large, steep arc that surrounds the dog’s eyes. Start in the middle of the left side of the muzzle and end up with an arc on the right.

   

9. Add ears.

   The penultimate step is to draw bent dog ears. Start drawing the dog’s ears from the head, then draw the bent part of the ear and finish by drawing the rounded part of the ears. Draw the second ear in the same way.

   

10. Color your dog drawing.
