To draw this cartoon Sheep step by step, follow along with the video tutorial below and pause the video after each step to draw at your own pace. You may find it easier to follow the step-by-step drawings below the video. The new lines in each step are shown in red, so you'll know exactly what to draw next. You may want to open the video in a new tab and use both drawing methods. Take your time and draw at your own pace.

 

Written step-by-step video tutorial:

 

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

 

 

Step 1: Lightly sketch two small ovals for the chibi cartoon sheep's eyes. Sketch lightly so that it's easy to erase if you make a mistake. When you get the shapes right, darken the lines. Inside each eye, draw two tiny circles to represent glare. Shade in the sheep's eyes using a dark value. Don't overlap the tiny glare circles as you shade the eyes.

 

Step 2: Below the cartoon sheep's eyes, on the left side, draw a small, Y-shaped line for the nose.

Step 3: To the left of the eyes, draw a curved, vertical line for the side of the cartoon sheep's face. Make the bottom half of this line bulge out to create the cheek. At the bottom, extend the line toward the right for the bottom part of the head.

 

Step 4: High above the eyes, draw a series of short, curved lines for the edge of the wool on the chibi cartoon sheep's head. These lines should extend farther to the right than the bottom of the head.

 

 

Step 5: Draw the top of the head using more of the small, curved lines that represent wool. Draw the lines going up, gradually curving to the right to create an overall domed shape. The curved lines should almost come together on the right side.

Step 6: Below the edge of the wool, on the right, draw a small, curved shape for the sheep's first ear. The shape should be similar to a curved letter V. Draw a similar shape on the left side for the other ear.

 

Step 7: Between the eye and the ear, draw vertical line made up of short, curved lines for more wool on the chibi cartoon sheep's face. Curve the lines for the wool toward the left so that they end under the head. Add more short, curved lines in a vertical orientation to the right of the ear for the back of the sheep's head.

Step 8: To the right of the head, draw more short, curved lines for the top part of the wool on the cartoon sheep's body. Gradually curve the small lines downward to create the back portion of the wool on the body. The farther down you draw, the taller the sheep's body will be. You can make the small, curved lines wider if you'd like.

 

Step 9: Under the head, on the left side, draw more short, curved lines for the wool on the front of the body. Curve the lines to the right to close off the shape and finish the chibi cartoon sheep's fluffy body.

 

 

Step 10: Under the body, on the left side, draw two angled lines for the cartoon sheep's front feet. The lines for the legs and feet should be similar to a tall letter W.

---

 

Step 11: Under the body, on the right side, draw two more angled lines for the hind legs. Draw the cartoon sheep's legs similar to the letter W and don't make them too long.

Step 12: On the top, right side of the body, draw a half circle that's made up of small, curved lines for the sheep's tail.

 

Step 13: Using a pen or marker, carefully go over the lines to make your chibi cartoon sheep drawing permanent. After inking, get rid of every pencil mark with an eraser.

 

 

Final Step: Color your chibi cartoon sheep drawing using color pencils, markers or crayons! Use light brown for everything except the wool. Use pink on the cheeks, directly on top of the light brown, for some blush. You can stop here or add a bit of light brown to the sheep's wool for shadows. Don't forget to pause the video after each step to draw at your own pace.
