Let’s go ahead and get into how to draw a simple cow using simple lines. I’m keeping this one very minimal, so you won’t need to deal with complicated shading or heavy details. It’s mostly about following the flow of the lines, paying attention to where each curve starts and ends. This kind of stylized cow drawing is quick but still needs a bit of precision to make sure the overall shape stays balanced.
Key Features To Notice In This Stylized Cow Drawing
- Head is shaped like an oval
- Two simple ears placed symmetrically on each side of the head using twirls
- Small horns curving slightly inward at the top
- Spiral-shaped eyes positioned evenly
- Nostril spirals placed low on the face
- A soft curve indicating the snout
- Body shaped like a heart, narrowing toward the bottom
- Tail with a small teardrop-shaped tuft at the end
Once you finish this one, you can try drawing other animals in more realistic or cartoonish styles like a cow face chewing grass, a kawaii cat chasing a ball, a cartoon rooster rockstar, or a chibi bunny.
Color Code I Use For This Simple Cow Line Artwork Guide
To help you follow along easily, I’m using a basic color system for each part of the drawing:
- Red Color: shows the current step you are working on.
- Black Color: shows the lines you have already drawn in previous steps.
