Pooch art

Learn how to draw a funny dog

By Mike Artell, author of Cartooning for Kid (Sterling Publishing, 2001)

We all know that dogs have a better sense of smell than humans do -- but how much better? BZZZZZ! Sorry, you're out of time! The answer is 1,000 times better!

See the step-by-step instructions with images.

1. We'll start drawing our cartoon dog by making a triangle nose. Now add some rounded lines for the area near the mouth.

2.Draw a tongue and two big, round eyes.

3. This is one way to draw the ears. You can experiment with the ears by making them longer or shorter.

4. Your dog needs a long, straight back and a tail. You can also give your dog a little round backside.

 

6. The last step is to add two more legs and two feet on the other side. Since these legs and feet are partially hidden by the legs closest to us, you only have to draw part of the other two legs and feet.

Is this little guy cute or what?
