How to Draw a Reindeer Face
Draw a reindeer face in 11 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: big soft head.
Step 1: Big soft head
Draw a big soft egg head filling the middle of the page, with fat cheeks. Leave room above for antlers.
Step 2: Two big eyes
On the middle of the head, draw 2 big oval eyes close together. Add black dots with shines.
Step 3: Ball nose and smile
Under the eyes, draw a round ball nose. From it, draw a line down to a w smile.
Step 4: The antlers
On top of the head, draw 2 thick antlers curving up from each corner, with a twig near the bottom.
Step 5: Antler twigs
On each antler, add 2 more twigs like little fingers, one halfway up and one near the top.
Step 6: Leaf ears
On each top corner, under the antler, draw a leaf ear pointing out, with a smaller leaf inside.
Step 7: Eyebrows
A little above each eye, draw a short, gently curved eyebrow.
Step 8: Rosy cheeks
Draw a little oval blush on each cheek, out near the edge of the head. Colour it pink.
Step 9: Falling snow
Draw 4 little snowflakes around the head, 2 on each side, each made of 3 crossing lines.
Step 10: Sand antlers, peach ears
Go over your lines. Colour the antlers sand and the inner ears peach. Leave the eyes white.
Step 11: Red nose, brown fur
Colour the nose red, then the head and ears brown, around the eyes, nose and cheeks. Your reindeer is done!
