How To Draw A Deer Head<\/h2>\n

Drawing a deer head can be daunting and overwhelming. But, by following a few basic steps, you’ll have a beautiful piece of artwork you can be proud of. Here’s what you need to know to start on your way to creating a magnificent piece of artwork and to help you perfect your deer-drawing skills.<\/p>\n

1. Visualize the Object You’re Painting<\/h3>\n

Before you start drawing, take a few moments to give yourself an idea of what a deer’s head looks like. The better you can imagine the creature you’re drawing, the easier it will be to capture the necessary details and achieve the desired result. Think of things like the shape of the muzzle, the antlers, and the face to help you bring your drawing to life.<\/p>\n

2. Start With Basic Shapes<\/h3>\n

Now take your pencil and think about the simplest forms that are used to create the object. Start by drawing a circle for the head and two antlers. This will give you a base to work with and help you to establish an outline for the rest of the drawing. Add two circles for the eyes and two for the nostrils. Don’t think too much about details yet—just start with basic shapes.<\/p>\n

3. Define Contours and Proportions<\/h3>\n

Once your outline is established, you can start to define its contours. To do this, lightly sketch the surface of the deer’s head. Think of the forehead as a triangle, the cheeks as curves, and the neck as a long line. When you are comfortable with the shape of the head and its details, don’t forget to mark the position of the eyes, ears and antlers.<\/p>\n

4. Add the Final Touches<\/h3>\n
