How to Draw a Bunny in Easy steps
Follow this easy how to draw a bunny step-by-step tutorial and you will be drawing your own bunny drawings in no time!
Step 1
Let’s start with our bunny’s head, so first let’s draw an oval. Your oval will become the bunny’s head.
Step 2
Draw a drop shape with a flat bottom, and erase extra pencil lines. The oval plus drop shape will form the bunny’s outline of the basic bunny body shape. It is always amazing to see simple shapes transform into cute drawings!
Step 3
Add a vertical oval to make our bunny’s cute belly. Again, you will erase the pencil lines that are outside of the main bunny body outline which in this case is the lower horizontal line.
Step 4
Now let’s make the bunny’s ears! There are two oval-like shapes for the two bunny ears – one smaller for the inside of the ear and one larger for the outside outline of the ear.
Step 5
For our bunny’s paws, draw two arched lines that look like a ‘W’. Watch how a simple line turns into the front paw or front legs. The inside of the W shape is actually two vertical line shapes.
Step 6
Let’s give our bunny hind legs by drawing two ovals. Notice that the bunny back leg shape are tilted in opposite directions.
Step 7
Draw smaller ovals to draw paw prints. Bunny paw prints are just plain cute art!
Step 8
Let’s draw the bunny’s face! Add circles for the eyes and cheeks, half a circle for the bunny’s nose and curved lines for the bunny’s mouth. You can change the angles of the facial features to change the bunny’s facial expression.
Step 9
And you’re done with your ! The final step is to color it and draw as many details as you want. The more details you add the more realistic bunny art will appear.
Your bunny is done! Yay!
