How to Draw a Goose
Draw a goose 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: a small round head.
Step 1: A small round head
Near the top left of your paper draw a small round head, a little wider than tall.
Tip Leave lots of room below for a long neck and big body.
Step 2: Flat bill
Start on the front of the head. Draw a flat bill pointing left, to the chin. Add a mouth line.
Step 3: One big eye
A little behind the bill draw a big round eye. Fill it with a black dot, leaving a white speck.
Step 4: Long smooth neck
Start under the head. Draw 2 smooth lines down like a lazy S, and stop at the shoulders.
Tip No corners: the neck is thick like a sock.
Step 5: Big plump body
Start at the back neck line. Draw a big bean body with a fat tummy. Stop at the front neck.
Step 6: Teardrop wing
Behind the neck draw a big teardrop wing lying along the body, pointing at the rump. Add 2 feather lines.
Step 7: Short pointed tail
Start on the rump and draw a short pointed tail sticking out and up, back to the body.
Step 8: Front leg and foot
Under the tummy, draw a short leg to a flat webbed foot with round toes, then back up.
Tip The foot is a flat paddle lying on the ground.
Step 9: Back leg and foot
Start further back on the tummy. Draw a second leg and foot the same way, leaving a gap.
Step 10: Ground and grass
Start at the left edge and draw a ground line under the feet, across to the right edge. Add grass.
Step 11: Stone grey goose
Colour the head, neck and body a soft stone grey, around the wing. Leave the eye white.
Step 12: Orange bill and feet
Colour the bill, legs and webbed feet orange.
Step 13: Grey wing and tail
Colour the wing and the little tail a darker grey.
