1. Begin the goat outline by drawing the eye. Draw a curved line for the cheek, and enclose the partial oval shape of the eye above it. Draw a circle inside the eye and shade around it.

Use another curved line for an eyebrow. Then, draw the goat’s nose. Use a “U” shaped line for the nose, and additional curved lines for the mouth and corners of the mouth.

Connect the nose and mouth with a short line. Learn more about how to draw a goat face.
