Easter is coming up fast, so I thought this week I’d show you how to draw a cute cartoon bunny in just nine easy steps. (Just don’t draw more than one. You know how bunnies are.)
When you’re done, feel free to email, tweet, pin, share, or Flingle (I made that one up) a pic of your cartoon bunny and I’ll post them right here at the blog!
If you liked that, you should check out my tutorials for drawing an elephant, and a leprechaun!
(BTW, here’s a batch of bunny cartoons too!)
I had a couple of friends tweet and email over the elephants they draw from my How To Draw A Cartoon Elephant tutorial! Wanna see?
Awesome job everyone!! If anyone else would like to contribute just email or tweet it over and I’ll post it ASAP.
Stay tuned for the next How To Draw coming soon!
I remember as a kid I used to love those Ed Emberly‘s how-to-draw books. I’m sure I still use some of the ideas I learned from those.
And it’s in that spirit that I’m starting another new feature here at the cartoon blog, How To Draw tutorial infographics!
First up is how to draw a cartoon elephant! (Click on the image below to enlarge it.)
Not bad, huh? It’s amazing what you can accomplish with basic shapes and letter forms! Feel free to grab it, use it, and pass it around. (If you post it I’d of course appreciate a link back.)
For testing purposes, and a bit of fun, I asked my kids to take a crack at the elephant to see how it worked. Here are their drawings:
My 5-year-old girl’s
My 8-year-old boy’s
Pretty good if I do say so myself!!
So there you go! Now you can draw your very own cartoon elephant! Go forth and trumpet all about your new talent!
(BTW, I’ve also got some elephant cartoons if you’re interested.)
