My new step by step tutorial will show you how to draw a sheep with just a few simple lines. It’s how cartoon artists draw every day.
Cartoon Sheep Drawing
Cartoon drawing is getting to the heart of something or someone with a few simple lines.
Sheep are known, of course, for their fuzzy wool, so drawing this in one long curly line is about easy as it can get. Add some super big eyes and face and tail and you have a simple and very cute cartoon sheep drawing.
To make the sheep pop out of the background, be sure to color the surroundings really well. The body will look even whiter with lots of color around it.
