Cute Dragon step-by-step drawing tutorial: step 1

1. Begin the cute dragon outline by drawing its face. Use curved lines for the nose, nostrils, and cheeks.

Shade a teardrop shape on each nostril. Then, enclose an oval within an oval on each cheek. Draw two small ovals inside each, and shade around them. These are the eyes.

2. Use curved lines to draw the brows above each eye and the mouth below the nose. Enclose two round teeth protruding from the mouth. On each side of the head, draw two curved lines that meet at a point.

These will be the ears. Extend a long curved line from ear to ear, but not connected to them. Connect the line to the ears with a scalloped series of lines.
