Free Drawing Page: Learn How to Draw a Corgi Step by Step

In this post, I’m sharing a free step-by-step drawing page straight from my book How to Draw: Cartoon Cats & Dogs. The character featured on this free page is a cartoon corgi, drawn to look like a recognizable, real-world corgi but simplified into a fun, friendly cartoon style that’s easy for kids to follow.

Corgis are one of those dog breeds that kids instantly recognize and love. Short legs, a long body, big ears, and lots of personality packed into a small frame. This free page walks young artists through How to Draw a Corgi using the same six-step drawing method found throughout the book.

If your child enjoys drawing animals or wants to learn how to draw dogs in a way that feels approachable and fun, this is a great place to start.

About the Book: How to Draw: Cartoon Cats & Dogs

How to Draw: Cartoon Cats & Dogs is designed to help kids learn how to draw animal characters step by step using a consistent, easy-to-follow format. Every character in the book is broken down into six steps, just like the corgi on this free page.

Inside the book, kids will find a variety of cartoon cats and dogs, each drawn in a style that balances realism with simplicity. The goal is to make learning How to Draw a Corgi feel just as achievable as drawing any other character in the book.

All of the art in the book is hand-drawn by me. I don’t use AI-generated images or stock art. Each character is designed specifically to help kids succeed while still feeling fun to draw.

Why Corgis Are Great for Cartoon Drawing

Corgis translate really well into cartoon form. Their proportions are already a little exaggerated in real life, which makes them perfect for simplified drawing.

When kids learn How to Draw a Corgi, they’re working with:

  • Simple shapes
  • Clear silhouettes
  • Familiar features
  • A subject that feels friendly and approachable

That combination helps kids stay engaged and excited to keep drawing. Once they finish the corgi, many want to move on to other dogs or animals in the book.

Step-by-Step Drawing Book


Hand-Drawn Art Made for Kids

Every page in How to Draw: Cartoon Cats & Dogs is created with young artists in mind. The drawings are clean, clear, and structured in a way that supports learning.

When kids learn How to Draw a Corgi from a hand-drawn step-by-step page, they’re following artwork that was designed to teach—not just to look good. The lines are intentional, the shapes are readable, and the progression makes sense for kids who are still building confidence.

Parents often tell me they appreciate knowing that the art was drawn by a real person who understands how kids learn to draw.

Building Confidence with Step-by-Step Drawing

The six-step method used to teach How to Draw a Corgi is one I use across my How to Draw series. It helps kids focus on one small task at a time instead of trying to draw everything all at once.

This approach helps kids:

  • Stay focused
  • Feel less intimidated
  • Build confidence quickly
  • Enjoy the process instead of rushing

By the time they finish the corgi, kids often feel proud of what they’ve created and excited to draw another character.

What Our Customers Are Saying

“The author really does a great job demonstrating how easy (and rewarding!) it can be to draw seemingly ordinary things you (and your little ones!) may feel too intimidated to try drawing without the step-by-step guide! Putting already-known shapes together and making something new and original is a fantastic way to learn! And recognizing that you can add your own twists and personality to your drawings makes all the difference. I think it’s a fun, original approach to building confidence for a lifelong hobby. I have the ebook copy, and can only imagine how great a physical copy would be!”

– Daenarah [Amazon Review]

“There are several of these fun books by this author. My kids and I have had a lot of fun with these. It’s a great activity to do as a family and see how they all turn out. Almost like a sip and paint but more of a juice box and draw.”

Allison B. [Amazon Review]

My kids can’t wait to start drawing these monsters in their illustrations! The many different moods of the monsters appeal to their different personalities. We love the many options, styles, and opportunities to expand upon the characters. Recommended for all ages!

– Kasey [Amazon Review]

“Kevin has put out many books on drawing and animation, and has such a great feel for HOW to explain the process. His art is so expressive and kid-friendly, but his real strength is in his ability to really explain and show how it’s done, making it accessible to kids and adults. I’m a firm believer that not everyone who “can do” can teach, but Kevin does both beautifully! Pick this up and watch kids have a blast making robots of all sorts, while learning great fundamental art skills at the same time!”

Tom R. [Amazon Review]

“My 5yo LOVES this book! The drawings are cute and the instructions are easy to follow along with. She gets a kick out of drawing muffin monsters and ketchup monsters and it actually keeps her pretty focused for long periods of time.”

– Monica [Amazon Review]

“This is a fantastic book for kids who love art, cartoons, comic books, or just having fun! There are a lot of characters to choose from, and really easy step-by-step instructions to follow. You child will have a blast drawing these fun, silly characters! And just in time for Easter baskets!”

– Bestmomever [Amazon Review]

“This is a very good book for kids that want to learn to draw, my sons love it and Kevin does a great job of making drawing fun and not intimidating. Highly recommended for the long summer hours!”

David D. [Amazon Review]
