How to Draw an Otter Face
Draw an otter face in 10 easy steps, about 8 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: wide head.
Step 1: Wide head
Draw a big wide head filling most of the page, like a fat bean on its side with fat cheeks.
Step 2: Small round ears
Halfway down each side of the head, draw a small half-circle ear poking out.
Step 3: Muzzle and nose
Draw a wide flat oval muzzle low on the face. Add a rounded triangle nose on top, filled in black.
Step 4: Big eyes
Above the muzzle, draw 2 big round eyes, each with a black pupil and a little white shine.
Step 5: W smile
Start at the tip of the nose. Draw a short line down to a w smile. Stop inside the muzzle.
Step 6: Whiskers
Draw 2 short whiskers on each side, from the edge of the muzzle out toward the cheek.
Step 7: Whisker dots
Inside the muzzle, on each side of the nose, dot 3 little whisker dots in a curve.
Step 8: Rosy cheeks
Draw a little pink oval blush on each cheek, beside the muzzle.
Step 9: Cream muzzle
Colour the muzzle cream, leaving the black nose.
Step 10: Brown fur
Colour the head and ears brown around the muzzle and cheeks. Leave the eyes white.
