3. STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1 - Start with circles to create the body 

Start by drawing 1 large and 2 small circles. This will be used to define the head and body of the unicorn.                                                                                               

Step 2 - Add an ear to you Unicorn 

Draw an ear on the top circle. You can draw it differently if you prefer ! Also, add a few circles in the eye to create reflection.                                                                   

Step 3 - Draw the neck

Trace the neck and muzzle joining the two circles. This step of the drawing should be easy ! :)

Step 4 - Draw the Unicorn Horn

Now move on to the horn of the fantasy animal. Draw a curved line starting from the ear, on which you will add the horn. Don't forget to extend the line for the back, because you must gradually extend the drawing to the body of the Unicorn.

Step 5 - The mane

You can now trace the lines of the mane with a few intermediate strokes to give it volume. This will also be used for the coloring step!                                                   

Step 6 - The tail

We will now draw the tail ! Just as with the mane, make a few intermediate strokes.

 Step 7 - Finish the drawing with the legs

Now it's time to do the legs! Don't forget the clogs !

There you go ! Your Unicorn drawing is finished ! :) It's now coloring time ! Don't hesitate to add stars, rainbows, etc. Your drawing will look even better with a bit of color !

Start with a pencil, this is the easiest tool to master. When you're used to it, you might then prefer to move on to charcoal or black stone. All three tools are recommended for light and shadow play and portraits. If you like to draw with colors, opt for the originality of sanguine (red chalk), for colored pencils, ink or pastel to combine drawing and painting. And why not go towards watercolor painting ?
