    Animal Drawing

    Animals are always fun to draw. Growing up, we learn about different animals and the sounds they make and other interesting facts about each one. It only makes sense for novice artists to start learning to draw animals. Maybe even their own favorite animal.

    Animal drawings are a great way for beginner drawers to learn basic art skills. Animal drawing skills consist of basic shapes and simple shapes which ultimately turn them into cute animal drawings.

    Whether you're teaching elementary art classes or homeschool art lessons, our printable step-by-step instructions will help your students keep at their own pace. Is your favorite animal in the animal drawings below?
