About This Article

Article Summary X

If you want to draw a simple and cute cartoon dog, start by sketching a big circle in the center of the page and 2 smaller, overlapping circles at the bottom of the big circle. These circles are the foundation for the dog's head and snout. Next, draw 2 slightly curved vertical lines extending from the smaller circles to create the outline of the dog's body. Then, sketch 1 straight, horizontal line at the bottom along with 2 half circles in front of the line and another 2 half circles behind it to form the dog's bottom and feet. Add 2 curved lines in the back that meet at a point for the dog's tail. Now that you have a basic outline in place, go back up to the head and trace around the 3 circles to create the outline of the dog's face. Add a small, downward-pointing ear on each side of the dog's head. Sketch 2 small circles inside the face for the eyes and add 2 short, curved lines for the brows and oblong nose. Sketch the forelegs using 2 parallel lines and add another 2 parallel lines inside the half circles to add detail to the dog's paws. Feel free to add any other details you'd like, like a collar or shading around the dog's eyes and nose. Then, erase all the unnecessary lines and color the drawing with crayons or markers. To learn how to draw a cartoon dog facing the side or sitting down, keep reading!
