Please PAUSE the "How to Draw a Wolf (Howling)" 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 on the top right side as a guide for the howling wolf's head. The circle doesn't have to be perfect. It's just a guide. Leave enough room at the bottom for the wolf's body.

Step 2: Draw a couple of arcs on top of the head as guides for the wolf's muzzle. The arc on the right should be thinner and shorter than the one on the left.

Step 3: Draw another small arc on the left side of the head as a guide for the wolf's ears.

Step 4: Draw two bigger circles under the head as guides for the wolf's body. These circles should be about twice the size of the first circle. The top circle should be almost directly under the head. The second circle should be off to the left more.

Step 5: Draw two lines under the body (one below each circle) as guides for the legs. Bend the lines a bit to indicate joints. The wolf's hind legs will be folded, so the line should be nearly flat.
