First, you just draw a straight line. Start
at about the middle of where you want
the horse drawing to end up, and draw
down to the left.
2. Next, draw the horse's muzzle and
chin by making an arc down to the
right.
3. The jaw is just an easy short line.
4. Make an almost half circle for the
cheek. Notice that the start of the
cheek is almost exactly below the
starting point above it on the forehead.
5. Now you are ready for the ears.
Draw the first one in two strokes like
this
6. Then do the other ear peeking out
from behind the first ear. Not all of it
will be showing.
7. Add a few strokes for the forelock
8. Now you're ready for the eye, nostril
and mouth. I like to draw a more
carnoon looking mouth so that I can
show expression. You may prefer to
draw a more realistic one that is not
"smiling"
9. Next, Draw the crest of the neck.
Make a long sweeping arc.
10. Then add the throat latch
11. Finish with a whispy mane. You
could also make the mane flowing
away from the neck by pointing it
upward as if the horse were running,
or in a breeze.
Have fun drawing this horse head. Next I will show you how to draw the whole body.
