Drawing dogs is a blast because they’re all so different, but that also makes them a more challenging species to sketch. My pup Reggie assisted me in sharing three BIG tips to help you capture the canine charm, no matter which breed you’re drawing.
1. Position them on the page first
Make marks on the paper to show where their head, paws, bottom, and tail belong on the page.
2. Take note of the nose
It's important. If you get the nose position wrong, it'll throw your whole drawing off.
3. Proportional pups
Pay attention to negative space. The areas SURROUNDING the dog are just as important to the drawing as the actual dog.
