Draw the Basic Form of the Elephant
Start by sketching the basic outline of the elephant. Draw two circles side by side. The one on the left will be the trunk and the one on the right will be the head. Connect the two circles with a curved line for the neck and draw a curved line below for the body.
Add the Details
Begin adding details such as the eyes, trunk, tusks and ears. Use curved lines to draw the trunk and draw a curved line around the eye. Draw two long curved lines for the tusks and two curved lines for the ears.
Outline the Elephant
Now it’s time to outline the elephant. Use darker pencils, charcoals and/or markers to make the lines more distinct. Be sure to make the trunk thicker at the bottom and the tusks longer and more curved. Add shading to give the elephant texture and make it look more realistic.
Add Color
To make the elephant look cute and cheerful, you can add some color. Use paint or colored pencils to give the elephant a unique look. You can add a bit of red on the ears and trunk to make the elephant look even more adorable.
Final Touches
To finish off the elephant drawing, you can add a few final touches. You can draw plants or other scenery in the background to make the drawing more interesting. You can also add grass or flowers if you want to make the elephant look even cuter.
