How to Draw a Sheep
Step 1: Draw the Fluffy Hair
Start by drawing a cloud-like shape at the top of your paper.
This will be the fluffy wool on the sheep’s head! Make sure to use soft, wavy lines to create a puffy, cloud-like texture.

Step 2: Draw the Sheep’s Face
Underneath the fluffy hair, draw a semi-circle to form the sheep’s face.
Make sure it connects smoothly to the wool above so it looks like the face is nestled in the fluffy fur.

Step 3: Add the Eyes
Inside the face, draw two big circles for the sheep’s eyes.
To make them look lively, add a small dot inside each eye to create a shiny effect.
You can place the eyes close together for a cute look or slightly apart for a different expression.

Step 4: Draw the Nose
Right below the eyes, draw a small triangle shape to form the sheep’s nose.
You can round the edges slightly if you want a softer, cuter look.

Step 5: Outline the Ears
Now let’s add two ears! On each side of the face, draw small triangular shapes that slightly point outward.
Make sure they are symmetrical and attached just below the fluffy wool.

Step 6: Draw the Sheep’s Fluffy Body
Sheep have thick woolly coats! To create this, draw a wavy ellipse shape just below the head.
Make it big and round, almost like a giant fluffy cloud. This will form the main body of the sheep.

Step 7: Add the Legs
Now let’s complete the sheep by drawing its legs!
At the bottom of the fluffy body, draw two small rectangular shapes to form the legs.
Sheep have short, sturdy legs, so keep them simple and even. You can add small lines at the bottom to represent hooves.

Your Sheep Drawing is Complete! 🎉
Great job! Now it’s time to bring your sheep to life with color!
- 🎨 Fluffy Wool: Use white or light gray for the sheep’s fluffy coat.
- 🎨 Face & Legs: A soft peach, brown, or gray will make the face and legs stand out.
- 🎨 Eyes & Nose: Color the eyes black with a white highlight and fill in the nose with dark gray or black.

On farms, sheep are raised for their wool, meat, and milk. Sheep need plenty of space to roam and grass to eat, and they also need proper care and attention from their owners.
Sheep are known for their calming and gentle presence, and for their important role in providing resources for humans.
