How to Draw a Strawberry Cow (Easy Step by Step)
This little cow wears a strawberry on its head like a hat, and that is what makes it so fun to draw. It is built from simple shapes: a big circle for the head, a rounded bell for the body, leaf shapes for the ears, and a few hearts. If you can draw a circle and a heart, you can draw this cow.

Step 1: Guide shapes
Lightly sketch these 2 ovals. They only show where the big parts go, so press softly. You will erase them at the end.
Step 2: The head
Draw a big round circle in the middle of your page. Make it a little wider than it is tall, like a soft ball.
Step 3: The body
Under the head, draw a rounded bell shape, starting just below the head's sides and curving out and down. Finish with a gently curved line across the bottom and add two small square feet.
Step 4: Ears and horns
Draw a leaf shape on each side of the head for the ears, with the pointy ends facing out. Then add two small pointed horns on top of the head, like tiny party hats.
Step 5: The strawberry
On top of the head, draw a small rounded heart shape with its point sitting on the head. Add three little dots inside for seeds and a few small scribbly leaves across the top.
Step 6: The muzzle
Near the bottom of the face, draw a wide, rounded curve like a hill. Its ends touch the sides of the face and the bottom edge follows the chin line.
Step 7: The eyes
Draw two solid round dots on the face above the muzzle, with a big gap between them.
Step 8: Nose and smile
Inside the muzzle, draw two round dots for nostrils. Under them, draw a small curved smile with a tiny line below its middle.
Step 9: Heart spots
On the tummy, draw two hearts, one on each side. Make each heart with two bumps on top and a point at the bottom.
All done!
Erase the guide shapes, go over your lines, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a strawberry cow
- Draw the head circle lightly first. Everything else gets placed around it, so a good circle makes the whole cow look right.
- The strawberry is small, so take your time. Draw a rounded heart that points down onto the head, then add three seed dots and a few leaves on top.
- Draw the two heart spots about the same size, but do not worry if they are not exactly alike. Slightly different hearts make the cow feel friendly.
