Please PAUSE the "How to Draw a Seahorse" video after each step to draw at your own pace.





For the first few steps, don't press down too hard with your pencil. Use light, smooth strokes to begin.

Step 1: Draw a circle as a guide for the first part of the seahorse's head. The circle doesn't have to be perfect. It's just a guide. Leave enough room at the bottom so you can draw the seahorse's body.

Step 2: Draw an arc on the right side of the circle to complete the shape of the seahorse's head.

Step 3: Draw a thin, long rectangle-like shape on the right side of the head as a guide for the seahorse's mouth.

Step 4: Draw another circle under the head as a guide for the seahorse's body. This circle should be about twice the size as the first. Don't place it too low, otherwise the seahorse will be too long.

Step 5: Draw two wavy lines that connect the head to the body to form the guide for the seahorse's neck.
