Here’s a simple guide on how to draw a baby elephant in sitting pose. The process has 17 steps and falls into the medium level of difficulty. The folds in the skin, the wide ears, and the way the legs are bent give it more detail than a basic outline, but with the step system, it’s easy to follow.
Main Features of a Baby Elephant Sitting Pose
- Head: rounded with a series of wrinkle lines across the forehead.
- Ears: large and extending outward on both sides.
- Trunk: long, centered, and slightly curved with folds.
- Eyes: small and positioned high near the trunk base.
- Legs: bent in a seated position.
- Feet: rounded with toenails clearly outlined.
Other elephant drawings that work well alongside this one include a baby elephant in front view, side view, or adult elephants in front and side as well.
How to Draw a Baby Elephant Sitting Step Guide
The step sequence is color-coded to make each stage clear:
- Red Color: shows the new lines to add in the current step.
- Black Color: shows the lines already drawn in previous steps.
- Grey Color: indicates the rough base sketch for proportions.
Step by step, the elephant takes shape from the rough outline to the full completed pose with all its details.
