Cartoon Fox

Here’s a cute fox drawing that includes a little perspective lesson too. Keep it simple by focusing on just his face and tail.

This fox face is drawn large and near the bottom of the paper, so there’s a whole lotta room to get creative with the background. One simple idea is add trees that get smaller and smaller. It adds some extra dimension to your drawing.

I like this tutorial for young artists as they can just concentrate on the head and fluffy tail, and not worry about the legs. It’s also a great reminder that things you draw can sometimes be so big they don’t even fit on your piece of paper. (A simple concept, but sometimes a new one for those just learning how to draw.)

Draw a Storybook Fox

The guy was inspired by some stock art illustrations I saw somewhere, and I just love how simple he is. No worries about how to draw arms and legs, etc. The point nose, ears and red colors say it all.

Which reminds me, that tie could easily turn into a scarf, so there could be a “Mrs. Fox” too, all kinds of fashion possibilities.
