How to draw a pig

Draw a slightly tilted downwards oval; this will be the body. Then draw the head using a circle and a snout with a rectangle.

Draw the contours of pig thighs with square shapes, tapering to the bottom. Please note that the rear hip is the largest of all four

Draw the outline of the legs. The front legs are displayed using rectangular form, tapering towards the bottom. Each rear leg is drawn using 2 wrong squares. Note that they form an angle with the contour of the thighs.

Use the wrong triangles for the image of ears and hoove

Draw the final contour of the pig.

Draw details. Draw a curled tail. Draw the eyes between the contours of the snout and body, as well as details of the snout, mouth and feet.

Remove all unnecessary lines.

And finally, Paint or color in the pig.

Recommendations

• While drawing look at the picture of the pig, it may help.
• Trace a pencil line that you want to leave, felt-tip pen, and erase the extra lines.
• Do not leave any lines!
• If you want to make the picture more realistic, or add decorations or context, add some shadows
