How to Draw a Corgi

13 steps · Medium · about 10 min

Draw a corgi in 13 easy steps, about 10 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.

Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the head.

Step 1: The head
Near the top of your paper draw a big upside-down egg for the head, wide at the top.
Tip The head is almost half the corgi. Leave room below for the body.
Step 2: Big pointy ears
On each top corner of the head draw a big wide ear, leaning out. Add a smaller triangle inside.
Tip Corgi ears are huge: big triangles with soft rounded tips.
Step 3: Two big eyes
High on the head draw 2 egg eyes with a gap between. Put a black dot in each.
Tip Leave a tiny white speck in each dot for the shine.
Step 4: Snout and nose
Near the chin draw a small oval snout inside the head. Sit a black triangle nose on top, point down.
Step 5: White stripe
Start on the top of the head. Draw 2 lines down between the eyes and stop on the snout.
Tip The stripe is thin between the eyes and wider at the snout.
Step 6: Smile and tongue
From the nose draw a line down to a little w. Hang a U tongue from the middle of it.
Tip The tongue pokes out below the oval. Rub out the line inside it.
Step 7: Wide body
Start low on each cheek. Draw a fat C down near the bottom. Join the ends with a saggy line.
Tip A corgi is a long loaf on short legs: wide and low.
Step 8: White chest
Start under the left cheek. Draw a big U down the chest and up to stop under the right cheek.
Tip This is the white chest patch, wide at the bottom.
Step 9: Front legs and ground
Start on the chest line. Draw 2 legs down to round paws with 2 toe lines. Add the ground line.
Tip Corgi legs are stubby. Each paw is a little wider than its leg.
Step 10: Back legs
Draw a paw on the ground at each bottom corner. Curve a thigh line from the side down to it.
Tip Add 2 toe lines. Rub out the body line inside each paw. A corgi has no tail.
Step 11: Peach ears
Go over your lines. Colour the inside of each ear peach.
Step 12: Colour the fur tan
Colour the head, ears and body tan, around the peach. Leave the eyes, snout, stripe, chest, legs and paws white.
Step 13: Pink tongue
Colour the tongue pink.
