How to draw a bear step by step
In each picture, the new part is pink. Draw it, then go on to the next step.
-
Draw the head
Draw a wide rounded shape, flatter at the bottom, like a bun. Add a light cross through it: it shows where the middle of the face is.
-
Draw the face
Draw two curved lines for closed, happy eyes. Below them, add a round muzzle with a small nose and a wide open smile.
-
Add the ears
Draw two round ears on top of the head, one on each side, with a smaller curve inside each. Add a little tuft of fur between them.
-
Draw the honey pot
Below the head, draw a round pot with a wide oval rim. Its top overlaps the bottom of the head.
-
Add the arms and the label
Draw two short arms wrapping around the pot, with round paws on its sides. Write HONEY on the pot, or leave it blank.
-
Draw the body and legs
Draw the round belly behind the pot and two big legs that stick out to the sides, like the bear is sitting on the ground.
-
Add the details
Draw round pads on the soles of the feet and a honey drip running down from the rim. Erase the cross on the face.
-
Color your bear
Go over the final lines. Color the fur warm brown, the paw pads and cheeks pink and the honey pot golden yellow.

How do I draw bear ears?
Draw two round half-circles on top of the head, then a smaller curve inside each one. Keep them the same size so the head looks even.

How long does it take to draw this bear?
About 15 minutes for the outline. Coloring takes a little longer.
