drawing ideas of dogs

Get ready to bring your favorite four-legged companions to life on the page!

No need to capture anything complex with this idea, other than the emotion on your pups face.

Ive found that my proportions are easier to get right working in this fashion.

spotted sitting dog

Feel free to add any shadowing after any dog on this list is drawn for a realistic look.

Either way, another easy pup to begin drawing.

Have fun with her sweater change the color, change the shape, or make it seasonal!

Bruce the brave and his bone

I would start with his head and facial details.

That way, you’re able to match his body better this way.

A trick that helps is to very lightly outline the pup.

Dolly the daschund

If youre inspired, give Pollys crown a makeover color, size, etc.

Jazz The Jumper

Jazz had to jump onto this list sooner than later!

Do this appropriately for the head and tail, too.

Pancho and his bow tie

That way, you avoid any crazy-looking angles, then sketch normally.

Sweet and simple, shes a naturally great idea to try your hand at.

Wally The Winged Wonder Dog

Similar to pigs flying, this Wally is a sight for non-believers eyes!

Champ the Champion

Champ is the best of the best on this podium!

Bella la belle french bull dog

A great way to proportionately get Champ right is by drawing the podium first.

That way, you could decide how big he is based off the platform.

Add a few friends to the other spots to make the image more interesting.

Outside Time with Ollie

We all know a super active dog like Ollie, too.

All of Ollies motion lines are the key to making him seem even livelier.

Buddy the dog, his bone and balloon

Fido has one thing on his mind, and its food of any kind.
