Snail Drawing in just 8 Easy Steps!
It all starts with the first step, so lets begin and see how its done!
We will be drawing the two little stalks on the snails head to start with.
These are called the upper tentacles and have the snails eyes at the end of them.
you might draw these tentacles using some curved lines with little round knobs at the end of them.
They will then be joined by another very small curved line between the tentacles.
Finally, you could add a little dot onto the knob on each tentacle.
Then, extend that backward in a wavy line until you have the base of the snail.
It will then fold in on itself to form the back of the foot.
The shell will be drawn with a big, rounded line on the back of the snail.
It will also have a little bump at the left-hand side of the base of the shell.
The reference image will guide youas to how this should be shaped as you draw.
This line can extend from the bottom of the shell and towards the center of the shell.
Most of these details will be on the shell that youve been drawing so far.
Then, you might add some more lines to the base of the snails foot for even more detail.
You could draw a background to show what kind of environment this snail is in, for one idea.
You could also draw some other small creatures to be hanging out with the snail as well!
For our image, we went with a variety of different browns to color in the snail.
This is just one of many ways that you could go about it, however.
The first way you could make your snail sketch even better would be by drawing a background for it.
You could go for a regular house or yard setting, but those are just two examples.
What are some ideas for background parameters you could use for this picture?
We covered this briefly in the guide, but you could really experiment with it!
In the guide, we created a more muted and realistic color scheme.
You could achieve similar results by using art tools such as watercolors and colored pencils.
What sorts of colors would you like to use?
Did you know that you’ve got the option to easily turn this snail into another creature?
It could be fun to show a comparison between the slug and the snail!
