How to Draw a Sheep
- Draw the outline of the sheep’s head and torso.
Depict the sheep’s head as a circle and the torso as a curved line.
- Add facial features.
Draw the sheep’s eyes as ovals, the nose as short straight lines, and the mouth as rounded lines.
- Outline the animal’s ears.
You can depict these elements the same on both sides of the sheep’s head.
- Draw the wool on the sheep’s head.
Sheep are usually curly, so draw the wool with lots of rounded lines.
- Depict the hair on the animal’s body.
Add lots of rounded lines of different sizes around the animal’s body.
- Draw two sheep’s legs.
The two legs should look the same. Draw hoof lines at the bottom of the feet.
- Add two more legs.
Draw legs, using straight and curved lines. They should look like the previously drawn legs.
- Erase the auxiliary lines.
Use the eraser to remove unnecessary lines from the sheep’s body.

Use shades of grey and black to colour the finished drawing.
