Draw it step by step

Six steps to a pig

New lines are purple. Lines you already drew turn light.

1

Start with the head

One big round head, a little wider than it is tall.

2

Two floppy ears

A soft triangle out to each side of the head, drooping down a little.

3

The big snout

Two dot eyes, one big oval snout with two nostrils, and a smile under it.

4

Draw the body

A big round tummy under the head.

5

Legs and a curly tail

Four short legs to stand on, and a tail with a curl in it.

6

Finishing touches

Two toes on each front hoof, one muddy spot, and a little heart on its side. Now this pig is yours.
