Deer are very kind and noble animals. They are very calm and easily make contact with people. Therefore, they can be stroked and fed from the palm of your hand.

Deer have thin but very strong legs. Thanks to such developed muscles, they run fast. They are also famous for their antlers. This is their decoration. Only they are available only in males. In females, they are of small size.

How to Draw a Deer for Kids

Draw the head of the deer.
To draw the head of a deer, you need to draw an oval. Only on the right side, narrow it and sharpen it, since the nose will be located there.
Draw the torso.
Also draw the oval only a few times larger. And make the left side a little smaller and lift it up.
Draw the legs and neck.
Connect the deer’s head and torso using curved lines. Next we draw paws. See how this is done in our picture.
Draw the ears, tail and paws.
Draw the far legs in the same way as in the previous step. Draw an ear on the top of the deer’s head. It looks like an oval. Just tilt it diagonally to the left. Next draw the tail. To do this, draw an oval with a pointed end at the bottom.
Draw the lines of the body, hips and tail.
Draw a wavy line in the middle of the tail. Straight on the legs, around the thighs. Also, draw a straight line connecting the front and hind legs. Make hooves at the ends of the legs. Step back a little space and draw a line. And so on each leg. Draw a mane under the head. Begin to draw a curved line downward. To the level of the beginning of the leg.
Draw the horns and the face.
The horns can be drawn in any shape, or see how this is done on our sample. It remains to draw the eye and nose. To do this, draw a small circle in the middle of the head. And in place of the nose, draw an arc.
Part of Tracing.
The pencil drawing is ready and you can start to trace the drawing with a marker or a fountain pen with ink.
Color the deer.
Color in half of the tail and hooves with a dark brown pencil. The horns are yellow. The ear is pink. The mane and belly are beige. Everything else is light brown or orange. Highlight the hooves a little.
