During the summer holidays I finally had a bit of free time. Time to read, to watch clouds pass languidly across the sky, to watch the dogs sniff about the garden, as butterflies buzzed around them. To draw. Maya gave me a very helpful book with lots of tips to draw animals. I always struggle with their eyes and by making them more cartoonish, as the book suggests, you can avoid that problem, and make them very cute.
I thought I’d share some of my drawings, all based on what I learned from the book How to draw animals and make them cute by Heegyong Kim. They’re also great for after you’ve been on a trip, for example if you went on safari you could draw some cute elephants or giraffes to go with your travel memories. Or to add to cards, or just for fun, like I did.

You’ve got to agree they’re all pretty cute…
Have a great weekend, maybe with some cute animals xx
The book really works! You can easily recognise the animals for what they are! Well done.
Thank you!
