How to Draw Cartoon Animals
Cartoon lions! Cartoon tigers! Cartoon bears! Who doesn't love cartoon animals? Ever since I was a kid, drawing
animals has always been a favorite. A lot of it had to do with the many pets I had growing up. But I'm pretty sure the Saturday
morning cartoons had something to with it too! :-)
In this section of the site, you'll be able to work on and improve your animal drawing skills, drawing all sorts of different creatures from throughout the animal kingdom.
Here's a tip when it comes to drawing cartoon animals. You may have noticed that many animals actually look quite similar to one another. Well, this helps a lot when it comes to drawing them...
For example, think about what a horse looks like for a second. What other animal does it resemble? A cow? A zebra? A donkey? Actually, it resembles all of them... and other animals too! Deer, giraffes and even elephants also fit the profile when it comes to drawing.
Because animals of different kinds can look similar in many ways, it becomes easier to draw one when you know how to draw another one that is similar.
Horses - just like cows, stand upright on four legs and they're about the same size too. Also, the head and tail are in about the same basic position. So? Learn to draw a horse first, and drawing a cow later on will actually seem pretty simple.
Well, time to put it to the test and draw some cartoon animals of your own! Select a lesson from the list below and begin!
