Introduction:

Let’s embark on a delightful artistic journey and draw a beautiful and easy cartoon character—a whimsical bunny friend! This step-by-step guide is tailored for kids, ensuring a fun and creative experience. Grab your paper and pencils, and let’s bring this charming bunny to life!

Materials Needed:

Drawing paper
Pencils
Eraser
Colored pencils or markers (optional)
Step 1: Begin with the Bunny’s Head: Start by drawing a large, rounded oval shape in the center of your paper. This will be the bunny’s head, so feel free to make it as big and cute as you like.

 

Step 2: Add the Facial Features: Inside the head, draw two large circles for the bunny’s expressive eyes. Add smaller circles inside them for pupils, and give your bunny a sweet, tiny nose by drawing a small oval shape beneath the eyes.

 

Step 3: Create the Bunny’s Mouth: Draw a curved line beneath the nose to form a smiling mouth. Your bunny friend is happy and ready for some playful adventures!

 

Step 4: Draw Long Bunny Ears: Extend two long, floppy ears from the top of the bunny’s head. Feel free to make the ears as wavy or straight as you like. This adds a touch of whimsy to your cartoon character.

 

Step 5: Add Facial Details: Give your bunny friend character by adding rosy cheeks with small circles on each side of the mouth. Draw a line across the mouth to indicate a smiling expression.

 

Step 6: Sketch the Bunny’s Body: Draw a rounded shape beneath the head to create the bunny’s body. Keep it simple and cute. This will be the perfect canvas for adding some adorable details.

 

Step 7: Illustrate the Bunny’s Arms: Extend two short lines from the body to create the bunny’s arms. Add simple ovals at the end of each line for the paws. Your bunny is ready for hugs!

 

Step 8: Draw the Bunny’s Legs: Add two lines extending from the bottom of the bunny’s body to create the legs. Draw ovals at the end of each leg for the bunny’s paws. These can be larger than the arms for added cuteness.

 

Step 9: Tail and Clothing Details: Give your bunny a fluffy tail by drawing a small circle at the back. Add any clothing details you like—a bow, a collar, or even a tiny scarf. This adds a touch of style to your cartoon character.

 

Step 10: Optional Coloring: If you have colored pencils or markers, bring your bunny friend to life with vibrant colors. Experiment with different shades to make your cartoon character uniquely yours.

Are you an artist who has been honing in your craft for quite some time, but are still not confident when it comes to drawings in a cartoon style?

Whether you’re preparing for a semester of animation school or you have a general interest in cartoons, you’re going to want to pay attention to this list.

We’ve put together our favorite cartoon drawing tutorials for you to follow along with at home. So, get your pencils out, and let’s dive in!

What is Cartoon Drawing?

You may think that every kind of drawing is a cartoon, but that is not technically the case. A cartoon is a specific kind of drawing that is intended to be unrealistic or semi-realistic. They can sometimes be caricatures of a person but can also be animals or objects. Someone who draws cartoons can be called a “cartoonist”.

Unlike drawings, which can be used for many different types of artistic purposes, cartoons are usually used for entertainment of some kind, such as in movies, tv shows, or comic books. However, like all types of art, cartoons can serve many different purposes — a lot of their beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Our favorite cartoon drawing tutorials

Dinosaur

It’s been a very long time since dinosaurs once roamed the earth, but despite this they still somehow manage to occupy an important place in all of our consciousness. Dinosaurs also make a perfect candidate for a cartoon-style drawing, especially if the project that you’re working on takes place in the prehistoric age. Check out a tutorial here.

Snail

Snails are a common character in many different cartoons, where they are usually portrayed as slow and steady (and there’s no denying that snails do take a while to get from point A to B). To draw a cartoon snail, you are going to want to make sure that you draw cute, bold antennas and a large shell. Here’s how.

Eyes

The way that eyes are drawn can make or break a cartoon. If you want to become a skilled cartoon artist, you are going to want to perfect the way that you draw eyes. Here is a good tutorial to start with if you want to practice your cartoon eye drawing.

Bird

Birds are another common cartoon character. From a wise owl to a cunning crow, it seems like just about every type of bird has made an appearance in a cartoon at some point. Here is how you can draw the perfect cartoon bird.

Mermaid

Mermaids are one of the most common mythical creatures in the world. However, while you can draw a “realistic mermaid” — as realistic as they can be, at least, as they don’t exist  — it is way more fun to draw a cartoon-style mermaid. Here is a tutorial that we really love.

Ladybug

In some cultures, ladybugs are symbols of good luck. Even if they don’t actually bring good luck with them, there’s no denying that they’re one of the most beautiful bugs that nature has to offer. It’s no surprising then that ladybugs look great as a cartoon — you can see it in action here.

Dolphin

Dolphins are known for being one of the most intelligent animals out there. You can draw your own very smart dolphin by following this lovely tutorial. Dolphins just look so cute in cartoon form!

Bow

One of the best parts about a cartoon drawing is the fact that you can get away with exaggerated features. For example, if you want to give one of your characters a bow, why not go all out and draw a huge cartoon bow as seen here?

Cat

Cats are one of the most common animals to “cartoonify”, and there’s no denying that there has been no shortage of feline characters in cartoons over the years. You yourself can draw an adorable cartoon cat by following this tutorial.

Watermelon

Who says that fruit can’t be represented in cartoon form? If you are looking to draw some cartoon food, then this is a good place to start. It’s a big juicy watermelon that’s perfect for summertime.
