Certainly! Here's a simple example of how you can draw a stylized unicorn using TikZ in LaTeX. This example uses basic shapes to construct the unicorn.

```latex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}
  % Draw the body
  \draw[fill=white] (0,0) ellipse (1cm and 0.5cm);
  
  % Draw the head
  \draw[fill=white] (-1.2,0.5) circle (0.3cm);
  
  % Draw the horn
  \draw (-1.2,0.8) -- (-1.3,1.2) -- (-1.1,1.2) -- cycle;
  
  % Draw the legs
  \draw (-0.6,-0.5) -- (-0.6,-1.2);
  \draw (-0.2,-0.5) -- (-0.2,-1.2);
  \draw (0.2,-0.5) -- (0.2,-1.2);
  \draw (0.6,-0.5) -- (0.6,-1.2);
  
  % Draw the tail
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}] (1,0) -- (1.5,-0.5);
  
  % Draw the mane
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}] (-1.1,0.7) -- (-1.5,1.2);
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}] (-1.15,0.6) -- (-1.55,1.1);
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}] (-1.05,0.8) -- (-1.45,1.3);
  
  % Draw the eye
  \fill (-1.25,0.6) circle (0.03cm);
\end{tikzpicture}

\end{document}
```

**Explanation of the Code:**

- **Body**: An ellipse centered at `(0,0)` to represent the unicorn's body.
  ```latex
  \draw[fill=white] (0,0) ellipse (1cm and 0.5cm);
  ```
- **Head**: A circle positioned to the left of the body.
  ```latex
  \draw[fill=white] (-1.2,0.5) circle (0.3cm);
  ```
- **Horn**: A triangle (drawn using lines) placed on top of the head to represent the horn.
  ```latex
  \draw (-1.2,0.8) -- (-1.3,1.2) -- (-1.1,1.2) -- cycle;
  ```
- **Legs**: Four lines extending downward from the body.
  ```latex
  \draw (-0.6,-0.5) -- (-0.6,-1.2);
  \draw (-0.2,-0.5) -- (-0.2,-1.2);
  \draw (0.2,-0.5) -- (0.2,-1.2);
  \draw (0.6,-0.5) -- (0.6,-1.2);
  ```
- **Tail**: A wavy line to the right of the body using the `coil` decoration.
  ```latex
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}] (1,0) -- (1.5,-0.5);
  ```
- **Mane**: Wavy lines above the head to simulate hair, also using the `coil` decoration.
  ```latex
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}] (-1.1,0.7) -- (-1.5,1.2);
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}] (-1.15,0.6) -- (-1.55,1.1);
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}] (-1.05,0.8) -- (-1.45,1.3);
  ```
- **Eye**: A small filled circle on the head.
  ```latex
  \fill (-1.25,0.6) circle (0.03cm);
  ```

**Instructions to Compile:**

1. **Save the Code**: Copy the code into a text editor and save it with a `.tex` extension (e.g., `unicorn.tex`).

2. **Compile the Document**: Use a LaTeX compiler that supports TikZ (such as `pdfLaTeX`) to compile the document:
   ```
   pdflatex unicorn.tex
   ```

3. **View the Output**: Open the resulting PDF file to see the unicorn illustration.

**Customization:**

- **Colors**: You can add colors by including `\usepackage{xcolor}` and modifying the `draw` and `fill` options, e.g., `\draw[fill=pink, draw=purple]`.

- **Adjustments**: Feel free to adjust the coordinates, sizes, and decoration parameters to change the appearance of the unicorn.

- **Additional Details**: You can add more details like a background, shading, or more elaborate mane and tail using additional TikZ commands.

**Example with Color:**

```latex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}
  % Draw the body
  \draw[fill=pink!20, draw=pink!50!black] (0,0) ellipse (1cm and 0.5cm);
  
  % Draw the head
  \draw[fill=pink!20, draw=pink!50!black] (-1.2,0.5) circle (0.3cm);
  
  % Draw the horn
  \draw[fill=yellow!80!white, draw=orange] (-1.2,0.8) -- (-1.3,1.2) -- (-1.1,1.2) -- cycle;
  
  % Draw the legs
  \draw[pink!50!black] (-0.6,-0.5) -- (-0.6,-1.2);
  \draw[pink!50!black] (-0.2,-0.5) -- (-0.2,-1.2);
  \draw[pink!50!black] (0.2,-0.5) -- (0.2,-1.2);
  \draw[pink!50!black] (0.6,-0.5) -- (0.6,-1.2);
  
  % Draw the tail
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}, draw=purple] (1,0) -- (1.5,-0.5);
  
  % Draw the mane
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}, draw=purple] (-1.1,0.7) -- (-1.5,1.2);
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}, draw=purple] (-1.15,0.6) -- (-1.55,1.1);
  \draw[thick, decorate, decoration={coil, amplitude=2pt, segment length=4pt}, draw=purple] (-1.05,0.8) -- (-1.45,1.3);
  
  % Draw the eye
  \fill (-1.25,0.6) circle (0.03cm);
\end{tikzpicture}

\end{document}
```

This version adds some color to make the unicorn more vibrant.

**Additional Tips:**

- **Learning TikZ**: If you're new to TikZ, consider checking out the [TikZ and PGF Manual](https://ctan.org/pkg/pgf) for comprehensive guidance.

- **Advanced Drawing**: For more detailed drawings, you can explore paths, patterns, and complex shapes in TikZ. Combining these can help you create a more realistic unicorn.

Feel free to modify the code to suit your needs, and have fun experimenting with TikZ!
