In cartoons, owls are most often wise and attentive characters. It is not surprising that children want to start drawing smart and beautiful. To get the picture right, use the recommendations below. step by step drawing owlet.
Now we will analyze how to draw an owlet. To draw an owl, we must understand the structure of the feather and wings. Feathers are: small and fluffy, which are on the head, chest, legs. Also medium sized, which are located at the top of the pen; and long, which are in the middle and lower parts of the wings.
As usual, when drawing a black and white drawing, stock up on a simple pencil, eraser and blank paper.
Step by step drawing process
First step. We need to draw an even sketch for the child. Thin lines draw the contours of the head, body and wing. Click on the image to enlarge everything.
Second step. Let's draw a beak, area of legs and feathers.
Third step. We draw eyes and pupils, they are incomplete circles. Now we will only need to remove the outline (lighten) and in place of it with lines of various lengths make the appearance of feathers. Next, draw the legs and trunk.
Fourth step. In this drawing, the light source is on the left, so the color on the right will be darker. Add slanted dashed lines on the head, representing small, soft feathers. We pay attention to the directions of the strokes, they are important, because they will help convey the illusion of depth different forms. Let's sketch the feathers various shapes and wing length. Let's add a couple of curved strokes on the feet of the paws to indicate the direction in which the small soft feathers grow.
Fifth step. Remember that the dashed lines used to draw feathers are different various lengths and flowers. Outlines don't break off too abruptly, but are just feather-shaped (or uneven) to convey the most real appearance .
- With the 2H pencil, just shade the feathers on the left and central particles of the legs, the lower part of the body. Pencil 2B create an intermediate shadow with right side.
- Next, take the 2B and 4B pencils and add the dark colors of the feathers to the lower part of the body, on the right shoulder, under the beak and under the wing.
- Let's draw a circle around the perimeter of the colored shell of the peephole as an outer rim.
The second part of the phased drawing
Sixth step. Shade these outer rims with a 2B pencil. Using a 6B pencil, draw a pupil, leaving a highlight, and create dark shade on the beak.
seventh step. Using a 2H and HB pencil at work, paint over the eye and beak of the owl.
Eighth step. We take hard pencils to add more strokes on all parts of the head. We use 2H for the light parts, and 2B and 4B for the most dark parts. We add a couple of tiny circles on the feathers on the forehead and on the sides of the head. If you want to highlight some of them more, then just go over them with your eraser to show and highlight the main particles of each.
Ninth step. We apply sharpened hard pencil and short strokes for drawing soft downy feathers on chest and paws of an owl.
Tenth step. Shade the feathers on the owl's tail. Each feather has dark color on the right, which will smoothly turn into a light shade on the left side. Let's add diagonal lines to certain feathers. We look at the image and notice that the diagonal lines drawn on each of the feathers create a complete shading and emphasize the details.
Eleventh. Let's shade the feathers in the upper region of the wings, while the area above is darker, since the shadow from the owl's head disappears.
Twelfth. We use pencils of different softness and shading with lines of various lengths to show the texture of the feathers in the upper wing particle. Some feathers will have light areas at the ends.
Thirteenth. Let's add darkened shadows to the claws, while leaving room for highlights. We draw hatching with various lines to make the texture of the branch.
Fourteenth step. If necessary, we add more lines at your discretion, so that the drawing looks complete. To make light areas, we will take an eraser, so that dark areas we will apply auxiliary shading. Set the date and sign. If you look, you can understand that it is not so difficult to make a drawing of an owl.
In this article we will learn how to draw an owl and an owl. Many do not understand the differences between them, so we will analyze the differences and learn how to draw them. Get your art supplies ready, let's start painting!
How to draw an owl in stages with a pencil
To begin with, let's draw an ordinary owl, and then move on to the owl.
Stage 1
We take a pencil and try to portray perfectly even circle, which in the future will become the head of our bird.
Choose a pencil that is not too thick and try not to press it too hard, because in this and the next step we are drawing a sketch, the lines of which we will have to erase.
Stage 2
Based on the circle drawn in the previous step, we need to draw a sketch of our owl. This is quite difficult, so you may not succeed the first time. Don't worry and don't give up :)
Stage 3
Okay, we have the sketch ready, now we need to detail it until the drawing looks like a bird.
Let's start with the head, draw the eyes, beak and plumage with a pencil.
Stage 4
On the auxiliary lines we draw the legs, wings and torso. Also, erase all extra lines.
Stage 5
We impose chiaroscuro on our bird and the drawing is ready.
Be sure to watch the video tutorial for this example. Watching the live drawing process will help you learn how to draw faster.
What are the differences?
Great, we have drawn an owl and now we are slowly approaching the example of drawing an owl, but how is it different from an owl?
To understand the difference between them, just look at the pictures below.

| Owl | Owl |
1. The eagle owl looks more aggressive, it has a different head structure and plumage structure.
2. Eagle owls feed on larger prey, such as rabbits. Owls prefer smaller animals
These are the two main differences that an artist should be aware of. The fact that the owl flies silently, and the owl emits a whistle and other facts is not necessary for the artist to know :)
How to draw an owl for beginners
This example is quite simple and suitable for beginners. Grab a pencil and draw!
Perhaps the most important thing you should know is that the head of our bird can turn 180 degrees in one direction and the other. Knowing this fact, we can make drawings with unusual poses.
To begin with, we will make a sketch, which we will immediately detail. Drawing a sketch is easy, just draw a circle and an oval with sharp ends.
We draw the head.
Now the body and wings.
Paws and tail. Hooray, our drawing is ready!
If you wish, you can take colored pencils and color our night hunter.
How to draw an owl
Finally, we got to drawing an owl! This example will be more complicated, it is made with paints, namely, watercolor. If you do not have watercolor, then you can replace it with gouache, but in extreme cases, you can replace paint with colored pencils.
We will depict the bird not in full height but only her head. So, as usual in the first step we draw the base of our drawing.
We paint the eyes orange, and cover the whole body with a light yellow layer.
Now we cover our picture with a darker tone, a lighter orange.
We take Brown color and draw the plumage of the right side. We put black strokes on top of the brown. Don't overdo it with black, so as not to spoil our picture.
We are working on the left side.
We complete our drawing.
Drawing with paints is very difficult and we highly recommend taking a look at the video tutorial below. In it you will see the live process of drawing this picture.
White Owl
The white owl is incredibly unusual and beautiful view this bird. We just have to be sure to draw it, even though it is almost no different from an ordinary owl.
As in the previous examples, the first thing we draw is a circle.
Then we work on a full sketch.
Add eyes and a beak, as well as some plumage on the head.
We draw the body.
Now we apply chiaroscuro. Don't go overboard with this, as our owl should stay white and not get covered in hundreds of layers of crayon.
How to draw a cartoon owl
And now let's try to draw in an unusual style for us, in a cartoon style. Many call this style childish, but this, of course, is not so. The drawings are, first of all, beautiful, and not childish.
So, the base with a very large head.
We detail the head.
We are working on the body. The left wing will be raised, as if our character is pointing his finger at something.
Coloring.
Important advice when drawing cartoon characters outline the outlines with black.
Draw a cute owl for kids
We simply could not but add this example to this article. This figure simply goes beyond beauty, simplicity and cuteness!
First, draw the base as in the picture below.
Let's draw big eyes and a small beak.
And now let's put our bird on a branch.
We take a marker or a black felt-tip pen and circle the lines.
We color the picture, the result should be a very cute owl :)

How to draw an owl with a pencil in stages for beginners and children?
In this article, we will try to help you master the basics of depicting one of the wisest representatives of the feathered kingdom - an owl. By reading the materials below, you will learn a lot interesting options owl drawing.
To see with your own eyes a nocturnal feathered predator can be seen and seen in the zoo. In nature, to meet an owl sitting on a branch is a rarity. However, we will draw just such an owl - watching a small rodent from a height or preparing to fly.
We will try to convey the depth and beauty of round yellow eyes, as well as the peculiar shape of the beak, which in finished work are the main elements.
We will draw an owl in stages, using only a simple pencil. But if black and white drawing seems unfinished to you, you can decorate the owl with felt-tip pens or paints, finishing the forest night landscape and the stars sparkling in the sky.
- We start the drawing by marking the sheet and drawing the initial contours. Let's leave some space from the bottom edge of the sheet for the branch on which the owl will sit, and draw a straight line at a slight slope, dividing the sheet into two halves.
- Our owl sits with its head tilted slightly forward. Given this, we can draw symmetrical circles: the head and body of the bird. With short lines we outline where the owl will have paws and wings.
- Let's draw the contours of the bird's wings: they resemble triangles in shape. Let's start outlining the contours of the body of the bird, enclosing the two circles drawn earlier in one figure. In order not to get confused which line to draw, draw the left wing. After this step, move on to outlining the outline around the head. Draw the right wing last.
- We proceed to the most crucial moment - drawing the head. The main thing is to be able to convey the structural features of the bird's head. We outline the contour of the “face” of the owl, not forgetting the characteristic triangle above the eyes. We draw three short strokes where the owl has eyes and a beak. We return to the underdrawn wing and draw a clarifying line.
- We draw paws. The owls have them hidden under thick plumage, so only the claws of the bird come into view. Let's mark the plumage on the paws with lines.
Draw the details and erase the auxiliary lines - We draw in more detail the eyes of the bird by drawing circles. Let's add curved lines on the beak. Let's draw an additional outline of the "face" of the owl. Let's draw the wings and paws in more detail. With a few lines we will show the soft plumage on the breast and tummy of the bird. Let's draw a branch on which the owl is located.
- Erase the extra pencil lines. We trace the outline of the bird and begin to draw plumage over the entire breast. You can depict feathers short curved lines, which are directed downwards, drawing only some long feathers.
We draw feathers, pupils, beak and start decorating the owl - We draw the pupils and show the plumage around the eyes with curved lines. Let's draw the claws on the paws, feathers on the tail.
- After the sketch of the drawing is ready, we begin to apply pencil hatching, paint over the pupils, claws, select wavy lines plumage.
- If desired, the owl can be decorated. Best for eyes yellow pencil or a marker. The plumage of owls can be brown or beige. night landscape turn your drawing into a real painting.
Let's draw polar owl:
- Let's draw two ovals: one large one will be the body of the bird, and the other smaller one will be the head. Draw 2 crossing lines on the head. They will help us draw the eyes and beak symmetrically.
We draw two circles. Draw two lines at the top - We outline the outline of the body of the bird with one line, add a tail and a line of paws.
- We draw a beak, eyes. Add plumage to the head.
- We draw clawed paws and refine the shape of the wing.
- We draw feathers on the tail and wings.
- Pencil shading shows the pubescence of the bird's breast. We shade the area on the cheeks, under the wing. We go through dashed lines along some feathers.
- It remains to add small ovals all over the plumage, half painted over. This will help to give realism to the plumage of the bird.
Because of the large head of a forest bird of prey, the bewitching unblinking look of huge round eyes, the secret lifestyle of an owl is considered a symbol of wisdom, knowledge and experience. We offer to draw a wise bird in a cartoon style.
- Let's start with two almost identical circles and 3 auxiliary lines in one of them. First vertical line divides the circle into two equal halves. We divide the resulting line into three segments and again draw lines through them.
- We refine the contour of the bird's head: we circle the upper circle, slightly retreating from its borders where the owl has densely pubescent cheeks. We draw small triangular ears.
- We pass to the body: we denote, retreating a little from the outline drawn earlier, a wing in a semicircle. We repeat the same on the other side. Please note: in the area of \u200b\u200bthe owl's breast, we immediately draw protruding feathers with rounded lines.
- We outline a place for the muzzle, repeating the contour of the head and draw a small triangle in the forehead area.
- We draw the paws hidden under the dense plumage, we show the sharp claws of the bird. Again we pass to a muzzle and we draw two ovals for eyes. The beak of an owl is drop-shaped.
- We draw round pupils inside the ovals on the muzzle. On the breast, we will show thick plumage with several wavy lines.
How to draw a beautiful owl with a pencil?
Before you start drawing an owl, pick up a photo that shows a forest bird of prey in all its glory. If you don’t want to look for a picture suitable for drawing, use this one. If you chose a picture to your taste, then draw according to the same principle.
- Let's skip the step of drawing two circles. Immediately draw the outline of the body of the future owl, or rather, the eagle owl, showing the wings and paws. Let's draw a cross inside the circle for the head, so that later we can symmetrically place the eyes and the "mask" of plumage characteristic of an owl.
Outline the body of an owl - If you draw without a cross, then the proportions of the "face" can disperse. With the help of the cross, we set the desired inclination of the head, draw all the additional lines in order to maintain the proportions of the owl's "face". Semi-ovals denote the lines on which the eyes and beak of the bird will be located.
- We continue to add lines on the body of the owl: outline the shape of the wings, show the paws with a few strokes. At this stage, we draw the ears of the bird. Focusing on the cross, draw a "mask" of plumage.
We draw a cross and a mask from plumage - If it seems to you that the proportions were initially chosen not quite well, then you can fix everything at much later stages. The main thing is not to press hard on the pencil in the process of creating a sketch, otherwise the work will look sloppy.
- To avoid distortions that appear when drawing, it is better to fix the paper with tape to the board and place it in front of your eyes at an angle of 45 degrees.
- We outline the shadows in the area of \u200b\u200bthe wings and paws, as well as in the most shaded places. In order not to get a chaotically painted body of a bird, we draw feathers from top to bottom. How to depict the plumage of an owl - see the picture below.
We draw all the auxiliary lines for the eyes and beak - We drew the head of the owl and the eyes, but we will have to return to them. See how the drawing of an owl looms!
- We begin to refine the shape of the eyes: we emphasize their contour more soft pencil and expand the contour of the "mask".
Draw eyes, beak, paws - Let's get down to plumage: let's show short feathers on the abdomen and long feathers on the wings. Let's give them a variegated color, without focusing on each specific feather. We look at the picture as a whole to get a single composition.
Let's outline the shadows - So that the owl does not turn out flat, we shade even the white feathers that are in the shade.
Add shadows on the wings, on the head 
We arm ourselves with a soft pencil and continue to apply pencil shading 
Down to the neck 
When drawing feathers, do not rush, otherwise it will turn out ugly 
We draw feathers according to the shape of the bird's body 
Erase extra lines and add missing details 
The result should be something like this - When the work approaches completion, it remains to erase unnecessary lines and clarify some details.

We draw fashionable owl:
- Let's start the drawing with a circle. One circle will be both the head and the body of the bird (like Smeshariki).
- Change the circle to the desired shape. To do this, we will sharpen the top and bottom of the figure a little. The initial contour of the owl's body is ready.
- Let's draw two large eyes and pupils in the upper half of the circle. Draw a small beak between the eyes.
- We draw a line between the breast and the head of the bird. Simply put, we draw a line down from each eye, trying to draw them symmetrically. We draw wings. In the picture they are small, like those of a penguin, but others can be drawn: tightly pressed to the body, straightened or wide at the base.
- Let's draw the legs with fingers that the owl holds on to the branch.
- Let's add a stylish hairstyle to the owl, "dress" our bird in a T-shirt.
- We outline more dark color and erase the extra pencil lines.
- Decorate with bright colors.
