Drawing is super fun, especially when you can do it with your friends and family. Today, we are going to learn how to draw a horse using easy shapes and colors. So, grab your crayons and paper, and let’s start our drawing adventure!
First, let’s draw the horse’s body. Use your brown crayon to make a big oval shape. This will be the main part of your horse.
Now, draw a smaller oval shape for the horse’s head. Place it a little higher than the body so it looks just right.
To join the head and body, draw a straight line from the head down to the body for the neck. Then, add a curved line from the top of the neck to the body to finish connecting them.
Your horse needs ears! Draw two ears on top of the head. Make them look like the letter “M” to give your horse a friendly look.
Horses have four legs. Let’s draw them! Start with the front legs by drawing two straight lines down for each leg, then connect them at the bottom with a rectangle shape. Do the same for the back legs.
For the front leg, draw two short lines going outwards to make a bent leg. Then, draw two straight lines down for the rest of the leg and connect them at the bottom.
Now it’s time to color! Use your brown crayon to fill in the horse’s body. You can add spots, stripes, or even choose a different color to make your horse special!
Draw a circle for the eye and color it in. Add some short hair between the ears to make your horse look lively.
Make your horse happy by drawing a smile on its face. This little detail makes your drawing come alive!
For the mane, draw a zigzag line coming down from the top of the head. For the tail, draw two curves coming out from the back and connect them at the bottom. Color these in to finish the look.
Don’t forget the hooves! Draw small rectangle shapes at the bottom of each leg and color them black.
Great job! You’ve drawn and colored your very own horse. Remember, every drawing is special, and the best part is having fun and practicing. You can also add a background or some butterflies to make your artwork even more amazing. Enjoy your creative journey, and happy drawing!
Horse Observation Walk: Take a walk with your family or friends to a nearby farm or park where you might see horses. Observe the horses closely and notice their shapes, colors, and movements. Discuss with your family how the real horses compare to the one you drew. What shapes do you see in the real horse that you used in your drawing?
Shape Hunt Game: At home or in the classroom, look for objects that have the same shapes you used to draw the horse. Can you find something oval like the horse’s body or something that looks like the letter “M” for the ears? Make a list or draw these objects and share them with your classmates.
Create a Story: Imagine your horse is part of a story. What adventures does it go on? Write a short story or draw a series of pictures showing your horse’s adventures. Share your story with your family or friends and see what stories they come up with for their horses!
