In this drawing tutorial, you will learn how to draw a centaur using my instructions. This lesson consists of nine steps that you can easily manage.
This time the drawing object will be unusual and interesting. A centaur was a creature from Greek mythology which was half-man and half-horse. The head, arms, and torso of a centaur were human and joined at the waist to the body and legs of a horse. If you are interested in ancient mythology, then drawing a centaur will be very interesting and exciting for you.
