Basic Information on How to Draw a Wolf Face

This lesson on how to draw a wolf face will help you depict not only the face of this beautiful animal but also the face of a fox or dog.

The distinctive features of a wolf are its long muzzle, the outline of its ears and head. If you correctly depict these parts of the wolf’s face, then the final result will already be quite recognizable.

As mentioned in the lesson about the wolf, you can color the resulting picture orange, and get a drawing of a fox. Or you can paint the sketch white and get an arctic fox. All these animals are very similar to each other.

If you want to create a drawing of a werewolf’s head, then using these instructions you can do this too, because in fact the head of a werewolf and a wolf are drawn in a very similar way.

Also, you can complicate the work by adding shadows and highlights. This will make your drawing of the wolf’s head more voluminous and lively.

So let’s get started!
