Huskies’ beautiful, fluffy coats and adorable qualities make them one of the most desirable companion dogs in the world.
The extreme popularity of huskies has led to a great demand for a free tutorial on drawing huskies.
We have created a step-by-step guide on how to draw a husky, condensed into 10 basic instructions.
Avoid pressing down too hard with the pencil when outlining the outline of your Husky’s head. It’s important to draw lightly so that you can easily draw some parts of the outline if you don’t need them later.
This tutorial consists of detailed but short steps accompanied by visual illustrations, making it much easier for you to follow!
You require a pen and writing, ready to start drawing. Remember to bring your favourite colouring materials so you can colour your drawing too!
How to Draw A Husky
Step 1
Starting at the top left of the paper, draw an irregular circular shape with slightly pointed sides to structure the shape of the Husky’s head.
Avoid pressing down too hard with the pencil when outlining the outline of your Husky’s head. It’s important to draw lightly so that you can easily draw some parts of the outline if you don’t need them later.
Using the outline we drew earlier as a guide, draw the snout on the left that connects directly to the outline.
To ensure the Husky is drawn in the centre of the paper, create reference lines by drawing an intersecting horizontal and vertical line on the paper.
This guideline should divide the sheet into four square cells. The first square in the upper-left corner of the paper is where you should outline your Husky’s head.
Step 2
Using the outline we drew earlier as a guide, draw the snout on the left that connects directly to the outline.
Continue drawing your Husky’s body, starting at the back of the head and ending at the bottom of the chin. This outlines the entire upper body of the Husky, as shown in the image.
After that, erase all overlapping lines from the contour with an eraser. This helps keep your drawing neat.
Step 3
Continue drawing your Husky’s body, starting at the back of the head and ending at the bottom of the chin. This outlines the entire upper body of the Husky, as shown in the image.
Just below the Husky’s chest, draw a skinny leg on each side of his body. Next, draw a three-toed paw on the bottom of each leg.
Huskies are known for their muscular and compact physique, so make sure the body looks muscular when you draw it!
Step 4
Just below the Husky’s chest, draw a skinny leg on each side of his body. Next, draw a three-toed paw on the bottom of each leg.
Again, remember to erase any unnecessary overlapping lines from the rough outline sketch we drew earlier.
Draw the Husky’s hind legs under its buttocks. After completing this step, all four of the Husky’s legs, two in front and two in the back, should now be complete.
Step 5
Draw the Husky’s hind legs under its buttocks. After completing this step, all four of the Husky’s legs, two in front and two in the back, should now be complete.
Remember to add tufts of fur to add texture to the tail and make it fluffy and lifelike!
Step 6
Draw the tail attached to the back end of the Husky’s torso.

One of the unique characteristics of a husky is its erect, pointed ears, and that’s what we’re going to draw in this step.
Step 7
One of the unique characteristics of a husky is its erect, pointed ears, and that’s what we’re going to draw in this step.
Draw two inverted “V” shapes on top of the Husky’s head to form the ears.
Huskies are particularly known for their multicoloured coat, usually black and white. In this step, we will draw a distinct pattern on a husky’s coat.
Step 8
Huskies are particularly known for their multicoloured coat, usually black and white. In this step, we will draw a distinct pattern on a husky’s coat.
Shade all of the eyes except for the small circle inside the eyes for a dramatic “shimmery eye” effect. Next, draw a semi-inverted triangle on the edge of the snout for the nose.
Draw a solid, irregular line across the Husky’s body surface, separating the upper body from the lower body. This outlines the division between the two colours of a husky’s coat.
Step 9
Complete your drawing by drawing the Husky’s facial features. Draw a circle on each side of his face with another small circle inside to make the eyes.
Shade all of the eyes except for the small circle inside the eyes for a dramatic “shimmery eye” effect. Next, draw a semi-inverted triangle on the edge of the snout for the nose.
Huskies come in three primary colours: white, black, and grey. Generally, their coats are more than one colour and are often a combination of black and white, black and tan, sable and white, red and white, and grey and white.
As you can see, the drawing of the Husky is finally done! Now all you need is a splash of different colours to make your husky graphics more attractive!
Now that we have successfully drawn a husky, it’s finally time for the most exciting part: choosing colours and colouring your drawing!
Step 10
This is where you can show off your artistic skills and ability to mix and match different colours.
Huskies come in three primary colours: white, black, and grey. Generally, their coats are more than one colour and are often a combination of black and white, black and tan, sable and white, red and white, and grey and white.
