this tutorial I will be showing you an easy way to draw a
grasshopper with a total of four steps. But first let’s learn
some facts about the grasshopper; the first thing about these
well known insects is how high they can actually jump. Being
only 3-4 inches long and weighing 2-3 grams, the grasshopper can
jump twenty times the length of its body. In order for this
insect to leap a distance that far it would have to build a good
launching position to enable the legs to push against the ground
with a significant amount of force and speed. Where does all
that force come from you ask? Well, it comes from the
contraction of the leg muscles producing a lot of force and from
that force they gain enough speed to leap as high as they do. An
interesting fact about this species is that there are over
12,000 different kinds of grasshoppers in the world today. They
can also be found in any kind of habitat except for extreme cold
conditions, most people think
