Animal Drawing Tutorial

About Animal Drawing Tutorial Android App

Below you’ll find a collection of step by step tutorials on drawing animals. Each tutorial is designed to help you learn how to draw animals through a series of “sketchbook challenges”. Each tutorial breaks the process down into easy to follow steps. Drawing is about finding and understanding the basic shapes that make up objects – then constructing those shapes to make complex imagery. This collection of “sketchbook challenges” simplifies the process and helps the artist see and recognize shapes so that over time they can draw anything.

In this step by step drawing tutorial, we’ll take a look at how to draw a rhinoceros. I recently read a manuscript that I wrote when I was in the second grade entitled, “What Animal I would Like To Be ”. For some reason, my response was a rhinoceros. Maybe I thought at the time that the lone horn would be really cool to have. Rhinos are pretty interesting animals after all.

Step 1 – Draw Two Shapes For the Body
We’ll start with two simple, circular shapes for the body. The larger, longer oval will become the center portion of the animal, while the skinner oval will become the head. At this stage, we’re simply comparing the relationship of the head with the rest of the body.

Step 2 – Draw Contour Lines For The Back, Head, and Two Legs
Next, we’ll draw the contour lines, or outlines, for the back and the head. These lines are organic and jut upward over the shoulder and the rear legs.

Step 3 – Add the Ears, a Few Details for the Face, and The Other Legs
We’ll add a couple of ears to the top portion of the head and few indications of details on the face. These details include the eyes, a short line for the nostrils, and a slightly curved line for the mouth. We’ll also draw a few wrinkles and of course, the other two legs on the other side of the body.

Step 4 – Additional Details Are Added
Now we can simply continue to add details to the drawing. We’ll add the unique horn on the lower portion of the snout. We’ll also draw a slightly smaller one right behind it. More wrinkles are added to the face and portions of the body.

Step 5 – Finish the Drawing of the Rhinoceros
Now all that’s left to do is to go over all of our lines with ink or a darker medium to finish the drawing. Any stray lines made in the earlier steps can be gently erased.
