What’s the easiest animal to draw?

I’d say one of the easiest animals to draw is the puffer fish. It’s basically just a circle covered in spikes, so it shouldn’t give you too much trouble. There aren’t many steps either, and the whole thing is pretty straightforward from start to finish.

What is the hardest animal to draw?

The hardest animal tutorial I have is probably a toss up between the corgi and the chicken. The shapes are a little more complex, and there are a lot more details than something like the puffer fish. Luckily, I break everything down into simple steps, so it shouldn’t give you too much trouble.

What supplies do I Need?

All you really need is a pencil and some paper to get started. That’s enough for pretty much every tutorial on this site. If you want to add color or make it look a bit nicer, you can use cheap markers, colored pencils, watercolors, or even crayons. Nothing fancy needed, whatever you already have lying around works fine.
