Drawing a unicorn is a fun and magical activity! Let’s learn how to draw a unicorn step by step. Grab your markers and colored pencils, and let’s get started!
Start by drawing a big circle in the top left corner of your paper for the unicorn’s eye. Inside this circle, draw a smaller circle. Then, add another tiny circle at the bottom of the big circle. Color in the big circle but leave the smaller circles white. This will make the eye look shiny!
Next, draw a gentle curve near the eye for the unicorn’s forehead. For the nose, draw a backward “J” shape that goes down. From the nose, draw an “S” line that curves around to make the cheek.
Draw the first ear by making a sideways “A” shape starting from the top of the head. Inside the ear, add a small curve. For the second ear, draw a smaller shape behind the hair.
To make your unicorn special, draw a horn! Start with a small “A” shape under the ear and curve it into the hair. Add diagonal lines down the horn to give it texture.
From the ear, draw a big curve like a question mark for the neck. Then, make the chest by drawing a curve that goes out and down.
Draw the mane by making flowing lines that curve down from the top of the head. Add a few extra curves to make it look full and fluffy.
For the front legs, draw a straight line down for the first leg. Then, create the back part of the leg with a flared shape that connects to the hoof. Do the same for the second front leg.
Sketch a curve for the back and rear of the unicorn. Then, draw the back legs, making sure they connect to the body and look like the front legs.
Start the tail by drawing a curve that goes up and then down, like a roller coaster line. Do this for the other side of the tail, making sure it flares out at the bottom.
Connect the lines of the tail to finish its shape. Add extra lines for texture to make it look more like hair. You can also add details like eyelashes to make your unicorn even prettier.
Now that your unicorn is drawn, it’s time to add color! Use colored pencils, markers, or any other colors you like. Be creative and have fun with your color choices!
Yay! You’ve drawn a unicorn! Remember, the most important thing is to have fun and be creative. Don’t worry if your unicorn looks a little different; every drawing is special. Enjoy your drawing adventure and keep practicing!
