Imagine that one day your child comes from school and says: “Mom, we were asked to draw a duck at the ART, help me, I don’t know how!” Probably every parent has faced this situation at least once in their life. You take the album with a sigh and see diligent attempts to portray this poultry in the lesson.

However, what is depicted on the sheet looks like a rugby ball with a head and tail, a giant plum tree coming to life, a feathered egg with paws - in a word, anything but a bird called "duck". And then you realize that you yourself are unlikely to draw something more artistic! But after all, the baby looks at you with eyes full of hope, but you are an adult, which means you can do absolutely everything! Never let a child down.

How to draw a cartoon duck

To begin with, draw a circle approximately in the middle of the album sheet and below it - a large oval. Then smoothly, giving the lines the shape of the neck of the future duck, connect the circle-head and oval-body. Next, draw a small, slightly pointed arc on the left side of the oval - this will be the tail.

Then inside the circle draw a smaller circle - the eye. In front, not far from him, draw a beak to the circle. And draw a wing, for this, add another oval to the oval-body, in the form of a diagonally inclined chicken egg.

Now the most anticipated moment has come, because you are moving on to the details. Draw another small circle inside the eye - the pupil - and shade it halfway. Then carefully draw the head and neck along the contour, circle the torso, add a wavy line of feathers on the wing and erase the extra lines of the former circle and oval, and now full-fledged parts of the duck body, with an eraser. Voila!

Start in a familiar pattern - a circle for the head, but a small one, below a large oval for the torso. Connect the head with the body with smooth lines, making the neck and convex chest. Draw a tail, marking the feathers at its tip with an uneven Christmas tree.

Add an elongated beak to the head circle, and an oval to the body using verticallines, legs, to which draw triangles-paws. Then draw a small eye and carefully draw the shape of the beak, head, neck and, of course, the torso. With a slightly carved arc, mark the line of the wing, draw the legs. Remember that ducks have webbed toes. That's it, your bird is ready!
