The best day to learn how to draw a puppy, might be the day that the infamous Puppy Bowl plays on TV. No shortage of inspiration there!
Just in time for Super Bowl Sunday’s Puppy Bowl, here’s a tutorial to draw a dog that definitely looks like a puppy, and not just a small dog. Puppies have their own special features, just one of the reasons most find them so irresistible.
Dogs come in all shapes and sizes, of course, but a puppy is not just a scaled down version of a full-grown dog. The head needs to be on the large size, and the legs need to be a little short. The combination gives the impression of a body they have yet to grow into, which is true for almost any baby animal (or human!) for that matter.
