How to Draw a Unicorn

Description: Welcome to my awesome tutorial. In this lesson we will be learning how to draw a unicorn. What is a unicorn? A unicorn is a mythical beast. It is known for its long powerful horn on its head. This horn gives the unicorn power. If this horn is cut off, the unicorn will die. Unicorns come in different varieties. They come in blues, blacks, grays, purples, greens, oranges, reds, and whites. The unicorn above is a seasonal Pepperment Unicorn. *Note: I choose this unicorn because its the holidays. The image was colored and drawn from scratch. Now on with some unicorn fun! ^_^
