Mar 18, 2026
How to draw a walrus easily? Monkey Pen teaches simple tricks to create step-by-step walrus art.
Step 1: First draw a half-round shape with the right end slightly looking like a bump.
Step 2: Below on the right side, draw a half-moon shape for its body.
Step 3: On the left side, at the end of the half-round shape, draw a sloping curve with tiny bumps.
Step 4: On the right side, beside the half-moon shape, add one of its front flippers that almost looks like an oval, followed by a gentle curve.
Step 5: Include its back flipper, which is slightly broad and looks like the alphabet 'W'.
Step 6: Add details to the body and flippers using soft curves.
Step 7: Draw another front flipper on the right side.
Step 8: Draw its mouth that looks like two small rounds and a nose that appears like a rounded triangle.
Step 9: Add narrow, sharp tusks below, on either side of the mouth, and include a tiny curve below the mouth.
Step 10: Place many dots inside the mouth and add whiskers on either side of the mouth.
Step 11: Give patterns for front and back flippers and inside the body.
Step 12: Draw small round eyes and tiny dash-like lines for eyebrows.
Step 13: Darken the eyes, leaving the corners unfilled to indicate the eyeball.
Step 14: Below the walrus, draw a wavy surface to indicate the iceberg.
Step 15: Add one more layer to it under this wavy surface to complete the iceberg. Inside the drawer, draw small vertical lines at every bend. This shows the walrus is floating on an iceberg.
Step 16: Below the ice, draw small irregular ovals and wavy lines that are disconnected. This represents the water melted from ice.
Step 17: Behind the walrus, draw a few triangles in wavy forms to show the frosty mountains. Add vertical and slanting lines in between.
Step 18: A cartoon walrus drawing is completed.
