Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
First, we outline a large circle with which we will locate our bear’s face. If you’re going to draw a portrait, place this circle in the center of the paper.
Also in this step, we will outline the position of the eyes using a horizontal line and divide the bear’s face into two approximate parts using a vertical line. Note that the horizontal line should be positioned slightly above the approximate center.
Step 2
So we continue with the tutorial on how to draw the bear face. Now let’s sketch the main features on this adorable bear’s face. With the help of coarse, angular shapes, we’ll outline the nose and ears. Also in this step, we outline the outlines of the eyes, which will look like two small semicircles.
Step 3
In this step we will add some very important lines. First, we add the circles from the previous step to get the eyes of the bear. Then we draw a wide nose wing with a pair of rounded nostrils.
Step 4
We are now almost done drawing the basic features of our bear’s face. In this step, we will draw a line separating the upper and lower jaw. We’ll also outline the contours of the nose in more detail.
Step 5
A little bit of bear fur is exactly what is needed in this step. To depict this texture, we’ll draw jagged ripple lines on the side and below the facial features. Don’t forget to outline the inner parts of the ears like in our sample.
Step 6
Now we can safely remove all unnecessary lines from our bear face drawing. Also in this step we can correct any inaccuracies and errors from the previous steps.
Step 7
In this step we can make a small shadow to draw a more realistic bear face. The shadows look like some short oblique lines. In places with the thickest shade, you can add another layer of hatching. If you are a beginner artist and don’t plan on working with shading yet, you can skip this step.
Step 8
So this is the final step of our drawing tutorial. If you follow the sequence of steps correctly, you should see something like a piece of art on your paper:
If you decide not to add shadows, then you can color the drawing of the bear face. You can use brown or black to create the usual wild bears. If you want your bear to be polar, just leave your bear face drawing as shown in the final or penultimate step.
