Llama Drawing
This tutorial will show students how to draw a llama with its long neck, furry body and thin legs. A fun blanket can add some extra color, and show how closely they live next to humans these days.
Llamas are one of the world’s first domesticated mammals, meaning they no longer live in the wild. They are native to countries in South American where they have for centuries served as pack animals.
A llama body is covered with wool that comes in different colors and different designs. A llama’s coat could be solid or spotted and can range in color from white to brown or black.
Teachers that love to start a drawing project with a book have a wealth to choose from with the “Llama, Llama” series. To hear “Llama, Llama Red Pajama” read by a rapper, click HERE. It’s precious and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face!

Getting Started with Drawing Guides
You may have noticed that all of the tutorials on this website have a dashed vertical line and horizontal line running through the center of each step. If students make their own centered lines on their own paper, before drawing, they will have an easy reference to follow. All they need to do is fold their sheet of paper in half both ways, make a crease, and unfold. The best part is, by the time the drawing is done and colored in, the creases will have disappeared!
