First, draw a curved triangle on the head where the nose should go.

TIP: Since we’re drawing this dog as if we’re in front and to the side of it, get the correct perspective by placing the two circles of the front feet a little lower than the back feet. She uses the smallest circles to indicate the locations of joints on the hind legs, the ankles on the front legs, and for all four feet.The artist shows where the muscular tops of the front and back legs are by using ovals to indicate them, smaller ones for the front and larger for the back.

She then draws a long oval shape where the tail will go.Using the HB pencil, the artist makes a large circle for the chest, a medium circle for the dog’s hindquarters, and a small circle for the head placed just above the chest.The major parts of the dog's body can be represented by various size circular shapes. Using this acid-free paper will also ensure that your work doesn’t fade over time. We also recommend using the Arteza Drawing Pad for this project because, at a weight of 80 lb (26gsm), it is heavier than typical drawing paper and will give you a nice, sturdy surface. Here, the artist uses the HB pencil, which has a medium degree of hardness, and the 2H pencil. Those in the B range have a softer lead for thicker, darker lines and shading while the H range are pencils with a harder lead for finer and lighter lines. With these pencils, you get varying degrees of lead, from 6B to 4H.
