How to Draw a Horse
How to start your Horse Drawing
To begin with you want to start to define the major areas
of the head like the nose, mouth ears and eyes of the
horse along with the general shape of the head.
At this stage keep your lines loose and light so that if you
make any mistakes they will be easy to erase later.
Next you will want to start
defining some of the shapes
such as the eyes and ears,
but again, remember to
keep your pencil loose on
the page. The goal here is
not to get things perfect at
this point. Keep your
strokes light and quick as
you begin to define the
major features.
Use a ruler to measure the
distance of some of the key
points on the horse's head.
Doing measurements for such
areas as the width and height
of the head, the distance
between the eyes, and the
height of the ear can really
help you get the horse
proportions right in your
drawing.
Here you can see that our
horse is almost finished.
The hair on the mane has
been defined and shadows
have been added to hint at
some of the underlying
bone and muscle
structure.
Notice that the overall
level of shading in this step
is consistent (except for
one of the ears).
Now try it yourself & upload your
pictures below.
