How To Draw White Whiskers On A Golden Retriever In Pencil

In this tutorial, I am going to use a Stylus. You can buy various sizes in a package of three at Michael's Craft Store. Each end has a different size.

Take your stylus and with added pressure stroke out where you would like the whiskers to go on the animal you are drawing. Be sure to go a bit fast as you don't want to stop and go. This will make fatter areas for each stopping point which wouldn't look natural. I wouldn't use the smallest tip size unless you are wanting very narrow and skinny whiskers. I usually use the medium or thick tip sizes depending on how large I want the whiskers to be.

This is the end result with the white whiskers showing on the golden retriever. I had also stroked in some smaller hairs just below the nose and above the eyes.
