How to Draw a Piglet Playing in a Muddy Puddle · tinyhandscreate.com
Step 1: Guide shapes
Lightly sketch this oval. It only shows where the big parts go, so press softly. You will erase it at the end.
Step 2: Head top and ears
Draw a wavy line across the top of the head with a floppy ear at each end. Let each ear curve down on its side, and leave the bottom of the head open for now.
Step 3: The round body
Start under each ear and draw a soft, curvy line down the left and right sides for the chubby body. Let each side bulge out and tuck in a little, and stop near the bottom.
Step 4: The snout
In the middle of the face, draw a small rounded oval for the snout. Add two tiny slanted ovals inside it for the nostrils.
Step 5: The eyes
Draw two round dots, one on each side of the snout. Keep them level and a bit apart so your piglet looks sweet.
Step 6: Little legs
At the bottom of the body, draw a few short lines going down for the legs. Add a tiny curved line between them to show the piglet is sitting.
Step 7: Little hooves
At the bottom of the legs, draw two wavy, bumpy blobs for the hooves. Color them in solid.
Step 8: The curly tail
On the right side of the body, draw a small curl, like a little loop. Put a tiny dot inside the loop to finish it.
All done!
Erase the guide shapes, go over your lines, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a piglet playing in a muddy puddle
- Make the body very round and chubby. Soft, plump shapes are what make a piglet look cute.
- Draw the snout as a small oval first, then add the two nostrils inside it, so it stays centered between the eyes.
- The hooves are the trickiest part. Draw a bumpy wavy blob first, then fill it in with a dark crayon or marker.

Pigs have very few working sweat glands, so they cannot cool off by sweating. Rolling in mud helps them stay cool.
