Materials to Draw a Cow Face

- Pencils. I like how this brand always makes nice dark lines.
- Black Marker. A permanent marker will give you a dark black color.
- Crayons. The larger packs are nice for more color choices.

Another Cow Face Drawing Project
Here’s a fun Cow Face drawing option that teaches a lesson in Proportion. The nose is intentionally large to make it look like it’s reaching out to sniff you. The proportion of this project works well on a 6″ x 9″ sheet of paper, which fits in my Recycled Art Journal system.
