Today, we will learn how to draw a cow!
Cows have unique shapes and markings that make them fun to draw. They are gentle animals with a lot of character, and we can capture their friendly nature in our drawings.
Start by focusing on their key features: large eyes, ears, horns, and spots. Notice the shape of their body, hooves, and tail. These details will bring your cow drawing to life.

How To Draw A Cow
Step: 1
Start by drawing the top of the cow’s head. Create a wavy line with two small horns protruding from each side.
Step: 2
Add the cow’s ears on both sides of the head and sketch the top of the head with a slightly curved line. Draw a small tuft of hair in the middle of the head.
Step: 3
Draw the cow’s eyes. Start by adding two small circles below its hair, making sure they are symmetrical. Inside each circle, add a tiny dot for the pupil. Finally, draw two curved lines above the eyes for the eyebrows.
Step: 4
Draw the cow’s snout by making a rounded rectangle below the eyes. Inside this rectangle, add two oval nostrils and draw a curved line for the mouth just below the nostrils.
Step: 5
Add details to the cow’s face. Draw lines around the snout to outline the cheeks. Extend two lines downward from the bottom of the snout to form the cow’s chin.
Step: 6
Begin drawing the body. From the right side of the head, draw a long, curved line going downwards and to the left for the cow’s back and tail. Add a tuft of hair at the end of the tail.
Step: 7
Finish drawing the cow’s body. From the left side of the head, draw a curved line down to create the chest and front leg. Add the hoof at the bottom.
Step: 8
Add the hind leg and the cow’s underbelly. Draw another leg with a hoof similar to the front leg. Sketch the belly with a curved line connecting the two legs.
Step: 9
Draw the cow’s udder. Add a small, rounded shape between the hind legs with small teats extending downward.
Step: 10
Complete the final details. Draw the hooves, spots on the cow, and the grass it is chewing. Color the cow with black, white, and brown shades for a realistic appearance.
